SellerForge vs Perpetua

The honest answer: if your primary job is retail-media execution — automated campaign creation, target-ACOS bidding, keyword harvesting, and full-funnel DSP / AMC work — Perpetua is built for that. If you need a broader operating layer beyond advertising — account health and Plans of Action, order-level profit context, inventory forecasting, reimbursements, and listings — SellerForge is built for that on flat monthly tiers from $49/mo.

  • Whole-account context beyond advertising
  • Account Health, POA Builder, profit, inventory, and forecasting together
  • Flat tiers from $49/mo · no percentage of ad spend
The Honest Answer

Different Tools For Different Jobs.

TL;DR

Perpetua wins on goal-based ad automation at scale and Amazon DSP / AMC depth. SellerForge wins on whole-account operating context beyond advertising, approval-first workflows, account health / POA, forecasting, and flat pricing.

Perpetua is an advertising-first retail-media platform. Its 'create goals, not campaigns' model turns target ACOS and budget objectives into campaign creation, keyword harvesting, bid optimization, and ongoing execution. It also reaches further up the advertising funnel through Amazon DSP and AMC-powered audiences. For teams whose main job is sophisticated media execution, that focus is a real advantage.

SellerForge covers advertising, but its main difference is the context around it. Profit, inventory forecasts, listings, reimbursements, account health, and Plans of Action live beside PPC across 19 modules, so an ad recommendation can be reviewed as one operating decision rather than in an ads-only system. Perpetua also publishes profitability reporting and retail intelligence; SellerForge's edge is broader whole-account workflow and flat pricing, not a claim that Perpetua ignores profit.
