Amazon MAP monitoring, evidence & enforcement
Protect pricing.
Preserve brand value.
Monitor advertised pricing, identify seller activity, capture defensible evidence, and manage MAP enforcement from one controlled platform.
A preview of the MapProtector overview for a sample workspace: five figures across the top, a thirty-day compliance chart, a review queue of below-policy observations, and an enforcement notice awaiting approval. The figures are sample data and describe no real customer.
Six stages. One system of record.
Every observation, decision, capture and notice lives in one place, in order, with a timestamp and a person attached. Nothing happens out of sequence.
01Monitor
Every offer, on your cadence.
Scheduled scans read the offers on every monitored ASIN through your own Amazon authorization — price, seller, condition, fulfillment, Buy Box — and record what they saw and how much of the listing they could see. A day with no successful scan is a gap on the chart. It is never a zero.

02Identify
Know who is behind the price.
Every observation names its seller by the marketplace’s own id. Declare your Authorized Network and each observed seller is matched against it — so a distributor below MAP is a conversation with a partner, and a seller with no record is unknown until your team decides. Unknown is never presumed unauthorized.

03Review
A measurement, then a decision.
A below-policy observation is measured against the policy version in force that day, after any approved promotion or exception. Then a person confirms or dismisses it, with a reason. Confirming opens a case; the product never decides on its own.
Review and casesPans sideways: swipe, or focus it and use the arrow keys.
04Prove
Evidence that survives a challenge.
What the scan saw is assembled into an evidence package from MapProtector’s own records, reviewed, and sealed with a SHA-256 fingerprint. Every read verifies it, and a mismatch is a status, not a surprise. What you hand to a seller, a partner or counsel is what the scan saw.

Notices your team approves.
Your templates, sequenced automatically, sent only when a Brand Admin approves and releases them — from a sender you have verified, with every blocker shown before the button is live. Automated sequencing. Human-controlled sending.

06Verify
Cure recorded. Recurrence remembered.
The offer stays watched after the notice. A price observed back at MAP — enough times, far enough apart — closes the breach period; a return below it opens the next one on the same case, with the whole history intact. A seller’s promise, or a hidden price, never counts as a cure.

Built for compliance teams
Precise about what it knows. Quiet about what it does not.
Observations, not opinions
Every number traces to a timestamped observation with a source and a policy version. MapProtector applies the policy you configure; it does not reach legal conclusions.
Isolation by construction
Every customer’s data is separated by row-level security enforced in the database, not by application code that could forget a filter. There is no cross-customer seller score.
A person on every send
Nothing reaches a seller without a Brand Admin’s approval, a fresh second factor and a verified sender. Sequences prepare the next step; people decide it.
The product
Dense, because analysts compare rows.
Fifty candidates on one screen, one line each, the difference from MAP stated in money and in percent, and the seller’s standing beside every finding. Every view is a URL, so what one colleague sees another can open exactly as it was.
