Amazon scraping for public product data
Use ego(lite) as a free Amazon scraper for public product, price, and search data. Send Amazon product or search URLs to Codex, Claude Code, or another AI agent, and it opens each page in a visible browser Space and returns a CSV or Markdown report with the displayed fields, source URLs, access status, and the time each page was checked.
Please use /ego-browser to scrape the products shown at : title, displayed price, star rating, and ratings count, into a source-linked CSV.
To scrape Amazon product data, give your agent public product URLs, a search results page, or a Best Sellers list, plus the fields you need. The agent works in a real browser, keeps each source in its own ego(lite) Space, and records only the values the current session actually displays.
Download ego(lite), then import only the Chrome context you are authorized to use. Public Amazon pages usually load without signing in, but Amazon still decides what a marketplace, delivery location, or session can see, and it shows robot checks when it wants a human. The agent works inside those rules instead of around them.
Paste public product URLs, a search results page, or a Best Sellers list into one prompt for Codex or Claude Code. Tell the agent which fields to collect, such as the title, displayed price, list price, star rating, ratings count, and availability text. Then choose the output format and tell it to stop when Amazon asks for sign-in, a robot check, or another human decision.
Your agent opens each product or search page in its own ego(lite) Space and records the values the page visibly displays, including the displayed price, rating, and availability text. The browser stays visible the whole time, so you can see exactly which page state supplied each number.
Give each search, category, or product list its own Space and let your agent run them side by side. Keep working in your own tabs while the collections continue, then open any Space to check progress, pause a task, or take over when Amazon needs you.
Open the finished CSV or Markdown report to compare every value with its source URL, marketplace context, and check time. Prices are copied exactly as the page displayed them, unavailable fields stay marked instead of guessed, and you can rerun the same list later to compare what changed between checks.
Most Amazon scrapers are credit-metered APIs or no-code crawlers running in someone else's cloud, and their answer to Amazon's defenses is proxy rotation you pay for. ego(lite) turns the coding agent you already use into an Amazon data scraper with a real browser on your Mac: visible Spaces, a browser context you control, and a report that keeps every source, timestamp, and access status. The workflow is free, with no tokens or per-row charges.
ego(lite) helps your agent complete browser work faster, so a list of products or searches takes less time to check. Across our 31-task benchmark on live sites, ego(lite) averaged 398 seconds per task against 605 for agent-browser, 52% faster. Actual timing varies by website, workflow, and network conditions.
Give each search, Best Sellers list, or product set its own ego(lite) Space. The agent works through independent sources side by side without mixing browser state, and you can return to the exact page a price came from whenever a row needs a second look.
Open any Space to see which product or search page the agent is reading. When Amazon asks for sign-in or shows a robot check or CAPTCHA, the agent stops, records the status, and hands you the browser. You decide whether to complete the step yourself, and nothing is bypassed.
Import the Chrome context you choose instead of pasting URLs into an unknown cloud scraper. The agent sees the same content you see when you open the page yourself, including the marketplace and delivery location your session displays. Amazon's sign-in, region, and robot-check rules still decide what the session shows.
ego(lite) reads what Amazon pages display in the browser context you choose. It is built for bounded, reviewable lists rather than mass crawling. For large programmatic pipelines, Amazon's official Selling Partner API and Product Advertising API remain the right tools.
Public values visible in the current browser session.
No bypasses, no purchases, no hidden metrics, no mass crawls.
Give your agent the product, search, or Best Sellers URLs and the fields you need. ego(lite) turns Amazon scraping into a source-linked report that keeps displayed prices, marketplace context, access status, and checked-at time in the same row. You can rerun the same list later and see exactly what changed.
