A web app that catches cloned book listings and author impersonations on Amazon KDP and files the takedowns
Indie authors are getting buried under print-on-demand paperback floods and scammers who clone their listings, covers, and names under fresh ASINs. There is no tool built for authors that watches a book catalog for clones, knockoff editions, and listing hijacks and then drafts and tracks the DMCA takedowns through Amazon. This sits in the gap that seller hijack tools and pre-publish plagiarism checkers both leave open.
