Since launching the first version of Amazon Web Services in July 2002, thousands of developers have applied to our program. Some of these developers have used our Web Services platform to launch their own software solutions or small businesses. Most of these solutions fall into two main categories:

• solutions for sellers (inventory management tools, competitive pricing tools, etc.)
• solutions for Associates (dynamic link generators, store-builders, etc.)

Here is an example of a developer who built a product for Amazon sellers:

SellerEngine is a software application that enables Amazon Marketplace sellers to load, price and manage their Marketplace listings directly from their desktop through an easy-to-use and customizable user interface. SellerEngines developer, Ioan Mitrea, originally created the program for himself, but soon realized that he could package up his solution and sell it to other Amazon Marketplace sellers. Ioans product uses Web Services to perform seller-specific queries so that his users have the pricing and inventory information that they need to move more product.

The SellerEngine program retails for $199. More information can be found at http://www.sellerengine.com.
