Step-by-step setup

From sign-up to your first report in 5 steps.

Create your account

Go to trace.optimiseres.com and sign up with your work email. You'll receive complimentary credits to start — no credit card required. Verify your email and you're in.

Choose your mode

Trace has two modes: AI mode (chat-based, recommended for new users) and Manual mode (form-based, for power users). You can switch anytime from the dashboard.

Add products to track

Paste a product URL from Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra or Blinkit. Or upload a CSV with multiple URLs. The AI assistant can also find products for you — just describe what you're looking for.

Select data fields and run

Choose which fields you need — price, stock, seller, delivery SLA, reviews, etc. The credit cost is shown upfront. Hit run and your job starts immediately.

Get your report

Results are delivered as an Excel file to your email and Google Drive within minutes. For quick-commerce checks, city-wide sweeps may take a few minutes longer.

Tips for new users

Get the most out of your first few runs.

Start with AI mode

The AI assistant handles product lookup, field selection and scheduling in plain English. It's the fastest way to learn the platform.

upload_file

Bulk upload saves time

If you have a large catalogue, upload a CSV or Excel file with product URLs. Trace processes them all in a single job.

schedule

Set up a schedule early

Don't just run one-off checks. Schedule daily or weekly runs to build a trend history from day one.

folder

Connect Google Drive

Link your Drive so reports auto-upload to a folder you control. No more digging through email for yesterday's data.

help

Check the in-app help

Once logged in, hit /help for detailed documentation on fields, credits, scheduling and every feature.

Yes. Add any product URL from a supported marketplace — there's no restriction on whose products you track.
