What happened to Sellics

Sellics was one of the original Amazon seller suites, combining PPC management, SEO analytics, profit tracking, and competitive research in a single platform. Many sellers relied on it as their primary Amazon tool throughout 2018 to 2022. It was one of the first tools that tried to bring everything under one roof.

In 2022, Sellics merged with Perpetua, and the standalone Sellics product was discontinued. The combined entity now focuses exclusively on advertising automation: goal-based PPC optimization and Amazon DSP campaign management. The broader operational features like profit tracking, SEO tools, and competitive analysis were dropped entirely.

Former Sellics users now use Perpetua for advertising or have moved to other tools for their broader operational needs. This comparison helps those sellers understand how Jarvio fills the gap that Sellics' discontinuation created. For a broader view of the current landscape, our comparison of the best Amazon automation tools covers what is available today.

When to use Perpetua (the Sellics successor)

If your primary need is automated PPC bid management with minimal manual intervention, Perpetua's goal-based approach is strong. You set ROAS or ACoS targets, and their AI optimises bids to hit those goals. Their Amazon DSP support is also a genuine differentiator for sellers running display and video campaigns beyond standard Sponsored Products.

The pricing model charges a percentage of ad spend, which works well for sellers who want to tie their tool costs directly to advertising investment. For pure advertising automation where you set targets and walk away, Perpetua remains competitive. You can see how it stacks up against other PPC-focused tools in our guide to the best Amazon PPC tools.

The limitation is scope. Perpetua only does advertising. It cannot monitor your inventory levels, scan for FBA reimbursements, track competitor changes, optimise your listings, or send operational reports to your team. You need additional tools for all of those functions.

When to use Jarvio

Jarvio covers the operational breadth that Sellics used to offer, and goes further with AI-powered automation. PPC optimization through the Advertising API, listing updates through the SP-API, inventory monitoring with automated restock alerts, competitor tracking with real-time notifications, reimbursement scanning with prepared claim documentation, and team reporting to Slack or Google Sheets.

For former Sellics users who miss having a comprehensive platform, Jarvio provides the operational automation layer that Perpetua dropped. The AI agent approach means you do not navigate dashboards. You describe what you need in plain English and the agent executes it. If you used to rely on Sellics' profit tracking, Jarvio pulls sales and fee data from SP-API reports to give you margin analysis by product.

Many sellers now use Perpetua for PPC alongside Jarvio for everything else. The combination replaces what Sellics used to do, with significantly more automation capability than the original Sellics ever offered. For sellers exploring this setup, our use case for automated PPC management shows how Jarvio handles the advertising side.

The real cost comparison

Perpetua charges a percentage of your managed ad spend, typically 3 to 7 percent. If you spend $10,000 per month on ads, that is $300 to $700 per month just for bid management. As your ad spend grows, so does your Perpetua bill, with no cap.

Jarvio uses a flat subscription model. Your cost stays the same whether you spend $5,000 or $50,000 on ads. For growing sellers who plan to scale their advertising, the flat pricing model becomes significantly more cost-effective over time. You also get PPC management plus listings, inventory, competitors, reimbursements, and reporting all included in that single subscription.
