What is KIP Scout?
KIP Scout is a free Chrome extension that supports KDP topic research across amazon.com, amazon.ca, and amazon.co.uk. It offers bestseller rankings (BSR), estimated monthly sales and revenue, review counts, and keyword suggestions. Users can customize their research criteria—such as minimum monthly revenue, maximum review counts, or required numbers of qualifying books—and save their research data with one click to Dibbly Create, export it as a CSV file, or download book reviews.
Key features
Above Amazon search results pages, it dynamically shows the number of books matching user-defined criteria, along with average BSRs, prices, review counts, monthly sales volumes, and monthly revenues, while also providing a “Profitable” or “Not profitable” determination (this judgment reflects rule compliance only and does not predict actual earnings).
It extracts keywords from Amazon’s own search suggestions, supports filtering keyword groups according to user-defined rules, and compares the number of qualifying books, average estimated monthly revenue, and average review counts for each keyword. Users can export this information to CSV files.
Use cases and audience
This tool is intended for Amazon KDP self-publishing authors, including creators of fiction, nonfiction, and low-content books who need to conduct niche market research and keyword analysis.
- Conduct KDP niche market research on Amazon.com, Amazon.ca, and Amazon.co.uk to help plan topics for fiction, nonfiction, or low-content books.
- Quickly filter book topics that meet profitability criteria based on custom rules (such as minimum monthly revenue, maximum number of reviews, etc.)
- Retrieve keywords from Amazon’s search suggestions and evaluate, according to specified rules, the average monthly revenue and review count for corresponding books.
These include the book search keywords entered by users on Amazon websites, as well as user-defined research criteria such as minimum monthly revenue, maximum review counts, thresholds for qualifying book numbers, and whether to include items in ad placements.
At the top of search results pages, it provides a comprehensive thematic assessment—including the number of qualifying books, average BSRs, prices, reviews, monthly sales volumes, and monthly revenues, along with a “Profitable” or “Not profitable” determination. Each book’s result card displays estimated monthly sales, estimated monthly revenue, BSR, and review counts. On the detail page, users can view category rankings, page count, publication date, format pricing, and estimated income. The keyword page lists keywords along with corresponding figures for qualifying books, average monthly revenue, and review counts. Users can export data to CSV or sync it directly to Dibbly Create.
