[Need Gap] Multi-Channel Profit Tracking Blind Spot for Shopify+Amazon Sellers
Revenue

Target Users
Small to mid-size ecommerce sellers running both Shopify and Amazon FBA ($10k-$100k/mo), non-technical, no dedicated finance staff.
Core Pain Point
Revenue from multiple channels flows into the same bank account. Sellers can't identify which platform is profitable after COGS, fees, and ad spend — real profit is completely opaque.
Trigger Scenarios:
- Wanting to cut an unprofitable channel but not knowing which one is bleeding
- Month-end reconciliation: Amazon tools don't cover Shopify
- Manual spreadsheets always outdated or wrong
Workaround Evidence
"Revenue from both dumps into the same bank account, and I can't tell which platform is actually profitable." — r/ecommerce, 38 comments
Standard workaround: manual Excel/Sheets, copy-pasting across platform reports.
Opportunity Assessment
- Delivery shape: SaaS connecting Shopify API + Amazon SP-API, unified P&L dashboard
- Who pays: Ecommerce sellers, $29–$99/month
