📖 What This Tool Does

Find Products by Photo helps you discover matching or similar products online using a photo instead of typing keywords. It's built for online sellers, resellers, sourcing agents, product researchers, shoppers, and anyone who wants a faster way to explore products across major marketplaces.

Upload a product photo, and the tool brings back related listings, suppliers, prices, product titles, images, and marketplace details — all in one clean list.

🎯 What Does "Search by Photo" Mean?

Searching by photo (sometimes called reverse image search or visual search) means uploading a picture of a product and seeing other products that look like it. This is helpful when you don't know the exact product name, when translations are confusing, or when you simply want to see similar options.

---

🤔 Why Search by Photo?

Searching with words can be slow and hit-or-miss, especially when product names, translations, or category labels don't match. Searching with a photo is faster and more accurate — you don't even need to know the product name.

This tool helps you:

• ✅ Spend less time hunting for products
• ✅ Compare suppliers more quickly across different marketplaces
• ✅ Find products even when you don't know what they're called
• ✅ Build a smarter, faster way to source products

Run the same photo against 1688, Chinagoods, or Yiwugo (wholesale) and AliExpress (retail) to see the difference and decide where to buy.

🏬 Discover Backup Suppliers

Already buying from one supplier? Upload your product photo to find other shops selling the same thing — useful for negotiating better deals or finding a backup.

👀 Keep an Eye on Competitors

Save photos of competitor products and re-search them from time to time to spot new sellers, price changes, and trending items.

📚 Build a Product Catalog Fast

Process a batch of product photos to quickly fill a catalog with titles, prices, supplier info, and keywords — all organized and ready to use.

---

🏭 Sourcing by Photo: Suppliers & Manufacturers

Beyond a plain image search, the same photo can drive three sourcing jobs. Each one uses a different set of marketplaces, so pick the framing that matches what you're trying to do.

🔎 Find a supplier by image

You have a product photo but no supplier. Upload it and the tool searches Chinagoods, Yiwugo, and Made-in-China at once, returning shops, prices, minimum order quantities, and product links. It works as a supplier finder driven entirely by the image — no product name or keyword needed.

🧺 Yiwu wholesale sourcing with Chinagoods and Yiwugo

Chinagoods and Yiwugo are the online faces of the Yiwu wholesale market. For yiwu wholesale sourcing, run one photo against both: you get wholesale listings with shop names and market-zone details, then compare yiwu wholesale market prices side by side. Yiwugo's own search by image box finds the same stalls you'd visit in Yiwu in person.

🏭 Find a Chinese manufacturer by photo

For B2B sourcing, Made-in-China lists manufacturers and exporters rather than retail resellers. Use Made-in-China search by image to go from a photo to the factory-facing suppliers behind a product, with company details, MOQ, and price ranges so you can shortlist before reaching out.

🔁 Reverse image search for suppliers

Any of the three new marketplaces can act as a reverse image search for suppliers: one image in, a ranked list of matching shops and wholesale products out. That makes it useful for product image search and visual product search alike — find products by image first, then send the strongest candidates to a supplier-finder workflow.

---

🚀 How to Get Started

1. Pick your marketplaces — choose one or more of 1688, Alibaba, AliExpress, Chinagoods, Yiwugo, and Made-in-China.
2. Share your image — paste one or more image links, or upload a photo from your computer or phone.
3. Get your results — receive one combined list, with each match labeled by marketplace.

Example input:

{
  "targets": ["1688", "alibaba", "aliexpress", "chinagoods", "yiwugo", "made-in-china"],
  "imageUrls": ["https://example.com/my-product-photo.jpg"],
  "maxProducts": 40
}

💡 The default settings work great for most people — you don't need to change anything to get started.

❓ Common Questions

What is "search by photo"?

Search by photo (also called reverse image search) means uploading a picture and getting back other pictures that look similar. This tool uses it specifically for finding products across online marketplaces.

How does it work?

You give the tool a product photo (a link or a file), and it shows you similar listings from the marketplaces you picked — with details like price, supplier, and ratings.

Which marketplaces can I search?

You can search 1688, Alibaba, AliExpress, Chinagoods, Yiwugo, and Made-in-China — individually or all together.

Can I search 1688?

Yes — full support for 1688 search by photo, perfect for finding factory-direct wholesale products.

Can I search Alibaba, AliExpress, Chinagoods, Yiwugo, and Made-in-China?

Yes — all six are supported. Search Alibaba and Made-in-China for B2B suppliers, AliExpress for retail sellers, and Chinagoods and Yiwugo for Yiwu wholesale goods.

How do I search Yiwugo by image?

Select Yiwugo and upload a product photo. The tool runs Yiwugo image search for you and returns matching Yiwu market products with prices, suppliers, and shop links.

How can I find a Chinese manufacturer from a photo?

Select Made-in-China and upload the product photo. It is matched against manufacturer and exporter listings, returning company names, prices, MOQ, and product links so you can shortlist the maker behind the photo.

How do I find a supplier from an image?

Upload the image and select several marketplaces at once. The supplier finder by image returns shops across Chinagoods, Yiwugo, and Made-in-China in one combined list.

Can I compare prices across different marketplaces?

Yes — select multiple marketplaces in one run. Every result is labeled with its marketplace, making wholesale and retail results easy to compare.

What kind of details will I get back?

Each match includes a photo, title, product link, price range, currency, minimum order, supplier, location, rating, and how closely it matches your photo.

Is this tool officially connected to these marketplaces?

No — see the note below. This is an independent helper tool; the marketplace names are only used to describe where it can search.

Do I need any technical skills?

Not at all. If you can upload a photo and click a button, you can use this tool.
