How Sigil Reclaimed Revenue and Scaled Brand Protection— Without Building a Scraper

The Challenge

For growing eCommerce brands, unauthorized sellers aren’t just a nuisance— they’re a revenue leak, a threat to brand trust, and a source of constant pain for internal teams.

Cliff Stene, CTO and Co-Founder of Sigil, had seen this firsthand. His mission: build a solution that helped brands protect themselves from unauthorized sellers on marketplaces like Amazon and Walmart.

The biggest blocker? Data.

Results

Sigil launched faster, saved engineering headcount, and focused entirely on what differentiates them: enforcement.

Their team now operates across the major marketplaces, relying on Traject Data as the data foundation. With the infrastructure off their plate, Sigil has helped brands remove hundreds of unauthorized sellers-and in one case, recover $4 million in lost Amazon revenue.

And their platform continues to evolve. Instead of maintaining brittle scraping pipelines, Sigil’s engineering team spends zero time on scraping or data ingestion. Instead, they’re fully focused on building enforcement capabilities and features that directly serve their customers.

Looking Ahead

As Sigil looks to expand enforcement into marketplaces like Google Shopping, TikTok, and Facebook, they’re not worried about infrastructure. With Traject Data as a foundation, they can scale confidently- without slowing down.
