Mamba Ecommerce Platform Profiler MCP¶

Local MCP server (stdio, npm) - storefront stack detection for any ecommerce domain: which platform it runs on, which payment providers load, whether it sells subscriptions, roughly how many products it lists, and which currencies and shipping destinations it serves.

Server type: Local (stdio), TypeScript, Node 18+
Auth: Your own Apify API token (APIFY_TOKEN)
Package: @mambalabsdev/mcp-ecommerce-platform-profiler (npm, MIT, v1.1.1)
Tool: profile_ecommerce_platform (single tool)
Registry: com.mambabuilt/mcp-ecommerce-platform-profiler
Pricing: Apify credits per domain analyzed
Cache: 7-day result cache (skipCache to force a fresh run)
Built by: Mamba Labs (part of the Mamba Labs GTM Suite)

Why This Matters for Operators¶

Before quoting a replatform, scouting competitors or sizing a market, the first question is what a storefront actually runs: platform, payments, subscriptions, catalogue size. This server answers that from static reads - the homepage, the sitemap and optionally the public cart page - with confidence and evidence recorded per field rather than a bare label.

The honesty details matter: a storefront that reveals its platform only after JavaScript runs is reported as not_extractable rather than stamped with the nearest guess, a bot challenge is retried once from a residential exit instead of being recorded as a failure, and product counts carry their source (products_json or sitemap) and an exactness flag.

Tools & Capabilities¶

Tool	What the agent can do
`profile_ecommerce_platform`	One flat row per company: platform with confidence and evidence, payment providers, subscriptions, catalogue size estimate, currencies and shipping destinations

Detected platforms include Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce, Salesforce Commerce, Squarespace, Wix, PrestaShop and commercetools.

Key inputs: - company_domain and company_name. - includeProductCount (default true) - catalogue size estimate. - includePaymentProviders (default true) and checkCheckout (default false) - reads the public cart page for providers that load there, never adding an item or starting a checkout. - escalateOnBlock (default true), skipCache.

Installation¶

npm i @mambalabsdev/mcp-ecommerce-platform-profiler

Or run it without installing via npx using the configuration below.

Configuration¶

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mamba-ecommerce-platform-profiler": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@mambalabsdev/mcp-ecommerce-platform-profiler"],
      "env": { "APIFY_TOKEN": "your-apify-token" }
    }
  }
}

Get a token at console.apify.com/account/integrations. The server lists its tools without a token; the token is needed to run a lookup, and each call runs the Mamba Labs actor under your own Apify account. The same tools also ship in the umbrella @mambalabsdev/mcp-gtm-suite package.

Business Relevance¶

Ecommerce operators: check a competitor's stack, subscription setup and catalogue depth in one call.
Agencies: pre-sales stack reads before quoting replatforming or migration work.
Investors and analysts: profile a cohort of storefronts without opening a browser.
Partnership research: see which payment and platform vendors a target storefront already loads.

Integration with CorpusIQ¶

CorpusIQ shows the operator's own store numbers - revenue, orders, customers - from the inside. The Profiler adds the outside view: what the competitive set runs. Together: "how are we doing" from your systems, "what are they running" from the public web.

Limitations¶

Static reads only; a storefront that reveals its stack only under JavaScript returns not_extractable rather than a guess.
Catalogue size is an estimate; check product_count_exact and product_count_source.
Providers that load only inside a real checkout need checkCheckout on, which reads the public cart page as a plain HTTP request and never acts on it.
Apify credits are consumed per lookup; results are cached for 7 days.

FAQ¶

What platforms can it detect?¶

Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce, Salesforce Commerce, Squarespace, Wix, PrestaShop, commercetools and more; each detection carries confidence and evidence.

Does it touch the checkout?¶

No. checkCheckout reads the public cart page as a plain read; it never adds an item, starts a checkout or submits anything.

How accurate is the product count?¶

It is an estimate from the Shopify products endpoint where available and the sitemap otherwise; product_count_exact says whether it is exact.
