Its pricing page lists "$199/month/marketplace" plus 2% of ad spend, with repricing and budgeting available as add-ons at $10 per SKU per month each. On one marketplace, $10,000 a month in ad spend makes that $399 a month, and $25,000 makes it $699. RedHen Labs is $129 at both, and the plan covers the US, CA, MX and BR marketplaces.

Per marketplace, plus a share of spend
AiHello's pricing card says $199 a month per marketplace, plus 2% of ad spend β though the same page's FAQ says "There is no extra charge for managing additional marketplaces." For one marketplace at $10,000 a month in ad spend, that's $399 a month. RedHen Labs Professional is $129 for the plan, and the plan covers the US, CA, MX and BR marketplaces.
Add-ons, or included
AiHello's repricing and budgeting are add-ons at $10 per SKU per month each, so budgeting twenty SKUs adds $200. Budget automation is part of RedHen Labs Professional. Repricing isn't something we do.
When AiHello is the better pick
If you want fully automated bidding and a repricer from the same vendor, AiHello sells both. We don't do repricing, and our AI waits for your approval by default.

How itβs calculated. Smart is "$199/month/marketplace" "+ 2% of Ad-spend": $199 + 2% of ad spend, for one marketplace. The pricing card charges per marketplace, but the same page's FAQ says "There is no extra charge for managing additional marketplaces", so the table counts one. Ad spend means the spend the tool manages. Source: aihello.com, checked October 31, 2026. RedHenβs figure is the Professional planβs monthly price, the same at any ad spend ($110.08 a month billed yearly). AI assistant: $20 of usage included each month, and it stops at $50 unless you raise the limit.

How RedHen is different
AiHello's AutoPilot works "without the need for manual rule sets" and logs each bid change and keyword move with a reason. RedHen Labs keeps the rules you set in charge, and the AI's bid changes wait for your approval by default.
- Rules first, AI as the advisor. Rules settle the clear-cut calls, and the AI suggests changes inside hard limits. Auto-apply is off by default; switched on, the AI can only nudge bids.
- It waits when the data is thin. RedHen wonβt cut a bid on too little data. It looks again next cycle instead of guessing.
- The same flat fee at any spend. $19, $69 or $129 a month, whatever you spend on ads.
- You approve, and one click undoes it. Changes wait for your approval unless you choose otherwise, and each one is logged with a one-click undo.
Why we donβt charge more
We could charge more. We donβt, and it isnβt because this is a lighter product β itβs because itβs a focused one. We built the things an Amazon seller actually touches every week and left out the twenty modules that pad a suite. A focused product costs less to build and less to run, so it can cost less to buy.
The other reason is simpler. By the time a seller has paid referral fees, fulfillment, storage, returns, and advertising, a lot of hands have already been in the till β and then an agency wants a percentage of sales and a tool wants a percentage of spend. The person who designed the product, paid for the inventory, and carries every bit of the risk ends up with the thinnest slice of it. We decided not to be one more toll on that road. $129 is a number we can hold at any account size, which means growing your business never costs you more to keep using ours.

Will RedHen Labs change my bids the moment I connect?
No. Connecting reads your data and stops there. Every bid change RedHen Labs comes up with waits in a queue until you approve it, unless you've switched that automation to run unattended. Each change is logged, and one click puts it back.
Is fully automated bidding a good idea on Amazon?
AiHello sells "AI-powered fully-automated Bid Optimization." Fully automated is the part we'd be careful with. Untethered, AI is bad at Amazon PPC: a wrong bid doesn't happen once, it repeats every day until someone notices. RedHen Labs uses AI as one tool among many, alongside rules, harvesting and dayparting, and keeps it on a tether: it proposes, you approve.
