By name: amazon-order-matcher description: Scrape Amazon order history and match to Monarch Money transactions for auto-categorization. Uses browser automation to extract order details, then matches by amount and date to categorize uncategorized transactions.
Amazon Order Matcher
Automatically categorize Amazon purchases in Monarch Money by matching against Amazon order history.
How It Works
- Scrape Amazon Orders: Browser automation (profile
openclaw) extracts order history - Match Transactions: Matches by amount (exact match) with date tolerance (bank posts 1-3 days after order)
- Categorize: Auto-assigns categories based on Amazon product descriptions
- Update Monarch: Batch updates via Monarch CLI
