Track Amazon Ads for KDP Without Spreadsheet Chaos

InteliAds helps you monitor ad spend, ACOS, royalties, campaigns, keywords, and multiple accounts from one dashboard, so you can spot what is wasting budget and what deserves more attention.

One keyword spent $63 over the weekend with zero sales
A black-box tool changed your bids. No log. No explanation.
You spent 8 hours on Sunday in Ads Manager instead of writing
You paused a winner because the console could not show KENP
๐ŸŽฏ The mission

Amazon Ads was built for warehouse sellers, not KDP authors with catalogs .

InteliAds executes your rules every hour. Your thresholds. Your logic .

Every change logged. Every bid reversible. Dry Run first .

๐Ÿ’ก The solution

Your ad strategy, running while you write.

A rules engine that executes your decisions every hour โ€” with per-book dashboards, paperback net by order, and spend you can trust. Not a black box that guesses for you.

๐Ÿš€ From $29.99/month

Rule Builder

Your conditions. Running every hour.

  • Visual condition builder with curated templates.
  • Every entity checked. Every change logged.

Complete Audit Trail

See why. Reverse anything.

  • Revert entire rule runs from the Execution Feed.

Dry Run Mode

  • See every entity that would change and why.
  • Switch to Normal Run only when you are ready.

Book Health

  • Winners promoted to exact match campaigns.

Bid Guardrails

Rules cannot break your bids.

  • Max/min bid caps plus 48-hour entity cooldown.

๐ŸŽฏ Keyword targeting

Every keyword. Every bid. One table.

Filter by ACOS, spend, or profit. Edit bids inline. See 30-day trends before you change anything โ€” built for KDP catalogs, not warehouse SKUs.

โšก How it works

Live in under 30 minutes

4 steps
01

Install InteliAds Sync

5โ€“10 min

Free Chrome extension syncs KDP royalties and KENP reads hourly. Visit your KDP reports once to connect.

๐Ÿ”’ Privacy: Uses your existing KDP session. Credentials stay in your browser. Only report numbers sync.

02

Connect Amazon Ads

2 min

Authorize via Amazon's official OAuth API. Minimum permissions only.

03

Set Your First Rule

5โ€“10 min

Create a rule or import a template. Dry Run first. Switch to Normal Run when ready.

04

Check the Automation Pulse

90 sec

Rules run on your schedule. Open the Pulse, read what ran, close the dashboard, write.

What to Expectin Your First 30 Days

WEEK 1

WEEK 1

Rules are set up and running. First executions appear in the Automation Pulse. You run your first rules in Dry Run mode to confirm they work as intended, then switch to Normal Run.

WEEK 2

WEEK 2

Rules have enough data to make meaningful changes. Non-converting search terms are added as negatives automatically. You check the Automation Pulse twice this week instead of logging into the Ads console every morning.

WEEK 3

WEEK 3

Patterns are visible in your dashboard. KDP royalties show alongside ad spend. You make one rule adjustment based on Rule History. It takes 10 minutes.

WEEK 4

WEEK 4

Rules are calibrated. You look at the dashboard once or twice a week. You are spending the hours you recovered on writing.

InteliAds reduces wasted spend and removes manual monitoring. It cannot fix a weak cover, blurb, or price. Rules amplify what is already working. Every change is logged, traceable, and reversible.

๐Ÿ“Š What is managed ad spend?

Managed ad spend is the total Amazon Ads spend InteliAds monitors within your billing cycle. It is not an extra fee on top of what you pay Amazon. If spend exceeds your plan limit, InteliAds pauses rule execution until you upgrade or your next billing cycle begins. Your Amazon campaigns keep running. Only InteliAds automation pauses.

Safety, setup, privacy, and how InteliAds works. Every objection answered before you connect.

Cookies stay local

KDP session never leaves your browser

Dry Run first

Preview every rule before it goes live

Revert any run

One click restores the previous bids

Some KDP tools transmit your session cookies to their servers. InteliAds does not.

Stays in your browser

Your Amazon password, session cookies, and login tokens are never transmitted anywhere.

  • What leaves your browser: royalty totals, order counts, and KENP page reads only
  • Where it goes: your isolated InteliAds account over HTTPS
  • Who can see it: only you. No third party, no data broker

Uninstall the extension or email support@inteliads.io to delete synced data at any time.

Amazon Ads (OAuth)

Official Amazon OAuth API. Minimum permissions only. Tokens stored securely so rules run while you sleep. Revoke anytime from Amazon Advertising settings.

KDP (Chrome extension)

Never asks for your password. Session cookies stay in Chrome. Only report numbers sync to your account.

You are protected before, during, and after every rule run.

  1. 1

    Dry Run mode

    Preview every entity that would change. Switch to Normal Run only when satisfied.

  2. 2

    Rule History + Revert

    Every bid logged. Revert an entire rule run from the Execution Feed in one click.

  3. 3

    Bid guardrails

    Optional max/min bids plus 48-hour cooldown (up to 7 days). No rule can override your caps.

Even if your rule logic has an error, bids stay within your limits and the same entity cannot be changed again for 2 days.

Most KDP ad tools decide bids autonomously. When something goes wrong, there is often no audit trail: no log, no explanation, no revert.

  • You write the rules. InteliAds executes them, nothing more
  • Every change logged with exact conditions and metric values
  • Dry Run mode previews the full output before anything goes live
  • Revert restores an entire execution batch with one click
  • Toggle individual rules off on the Automation Rules page
  • Pause all rules simultaneously
  • Pause KDP Sync from the extension popup
  • Disconnect Amazon Ads from Connections

1. InteliAds Sync (Chrome)

Free extension for KDP royalties and KENP reads. Visit reports pages once, then hourly sync in the background. No password required.

2. Amazon Ads (OAuth)

Official Amazon authorization in your browser. About 2 minutes. No extension needed.

  1. 1

    Install InteliAds Sync

    ~2 min

  2. 2

    Capture KDP templates

    5 to 10 min

  3. 3

    Connect Amazon Ads OAuth

    ~2 min

  4. 4

    Set first rule + Dry Run

    10 to 15 min

The extension shows progress until Royalties, Orders, and KENP templates are captured.

A Book 1 campaign at 140% ACOS may still be your most profitable ad when KENP read-through is included.

Royalties minus ad spend shows net profit per book. KENP reads sync separately so you see series read-through revenue alongside ad performance. Stop pausing winners based on half the picture.

  • Lookback windows: 7, 14, 30, or 65 days per rule condition
  • 48-hour cooldown: same entity cannot change again for 2 days
  • Rules evaluate accumulated data, not a single delayed day

Each advertising profile links to its own KDP account with separate rules, reporting, and Rule History.

  • Starter: 1 enabled profile, 1 country
  • Pro: 3 enabled profiles, 3 countries
  • Unlimited: unlimited profiles and all countries

Managed ad spend is the total Amazon Ads spend InteliAds monitors within a billing cycle. It is not an extra fee on top of what you pay Amazon.

  • Starter: up to $300/mo ยท Pro: up to $2,000/mo ยท Unlimited: no cap
  • If you exceed the limit, only InteliAds automation pauses
  • Your Amazon campaigns keep running normally
