Competitor Launch-Date / Tenure Lookup

A method for estimating how recently a competing listing launched, inferred from review count and tool data (e.g. review velocity, historical rank/sales data) rather than any date field Amazon exposes directly. Distinguishes an established incumbent with years of reviews and momentum from a fresh entrant that's already gaining traction despite low tenure — the latter is a stronger warning sign, since it proves the niche is winnable right now under current conditions.

Complements Data Dive Rank Radar and Reverse ASIN Lookup (Helium 10 Cerebro) as another lens on competitor strength beyond raw review count or revenue estimate.
