FOR AMAZON FBA SELLERS

Built an Amazon FBA brand? Your next one has no inventory.

You know how to launch a product, run ads, and win the buy box. Point those skills at an AI app — where you own the customer and Amazon doesn't take a cut of every sale.

You already have every skill this takes.

The playbook that grew your Amazon FBA brand is the same playbook that grows an AI app. Here's the better business to point it at.

COST OF GOODS & FEES[1]

Amazon's referral, fulfillment, and storage fees eat ~30–45% of every sale — on top of the inventory you funded up front.

WITH REEVE

No inventory, no marketplace cut. Your only variable cost is AI tokens, billed per use.

ENTRY COST[1]

Amazon Professional is $39.99/mo — plus referral fees of 8–15% per sale.

WITH REEVE

Reeve starts at $20/mo, pay-as-you-go. No per-sale cut.

WHO OWNS THE CUSTOMER[2]

Amazon owns the buyer, the inbox, and the review — you rent the shelf.

WITH REEVE

The customer is yours: your app, your CRM, your recurring relationship.

RECURRING REVENUE[3]

FBA is one-time purchases; you re-acquire for every single sale.

WITH REEVE

An AI app is recurring by design — every customer bills every month.

RETENTION[4]

The average repeat-purchase rate is ~25–30% — most buyers never return.

WITH REEVE

Healthy software keeps ~106% of revenue year over year (best-in-class 120%+).

MARKET GROWTH[5]

Global ecommerce is growing ~8–12% a year.

WITH REEVE

The AI-app market is forecast to grow ~47% a year.

WHAT IT'S WORTH[6]

Small FBA brands sell for ~0.5–1.5× revenue — and aggregator multiples fell hard after 2021.

WITH REEVE

Healthy niche software sells for ~3–7× revenue (ARR).

FBA runs on Amazon's terms. Your AI app runs on yours.

Off Amazon, most sellers rebuild a stack of tools anyway — versus one platform that does all of it.
