Considerations

  • Distinct from Amazon's commerce crawlers (which crawl seller feeds, not the open web).
  • JS-rendering capability is not explicitly documented on Amazon's developer page; the Chrome-token in the UA suggests a Chromium-based fetcher, but treat the rendering behavior as unverified until Amazon publishes a definitive answer.
  • Moderate volume — not continuous.
