What does AliExpress Keyword Scraper do?
AliExpress Keyword Scraper collects AliExpress search results for any keyword or search URL and returns clean, structured product data: product ID, title, sale price, list price, discount, currency, exact sold count, rating, free shipping, ships-from country, store name, ad flag, Choice badge, launch date and item URL.
Type a keyword like phone case, or paste an AliExpress search URL with your filters, and get up to 3,600 products per search (60 pages of 60). Sort by best match, most orders, price or newest and filter by min and max price.
It works like an AliExpress search API without an API key or login: plain HTTP requests, no browser, so it is fast (about 1,000 products a minute) and cheap: $2.50 per 1,000 products. Searches that return nothing or fail are free.
Why use an AliExpress scraper?
- 🔎 Dropshipping product research: find winning products by exact sold count and rating, not just the rounded "1,000+ sold" text.
- 💸 Price monitoring: track sale price, list price and discount for a keyword or category every day.
- 📈 Market and trend research: see what sells in a niche, how crowded it is (
totalResultsin the log), and which new listings appear (listedDate, sort by newest). - 🏷️ Competitor and supplier discovery: store names, Choice badges, ships-from country and ad placements per search.
- 📦 Catalogue and feed building: titles, images and item URLs ready to export to CSV, Excel or JSON.
- 🤖 AI agents and data pipelines: call it from the Apify API, MCP server, Make, Zapier or n8n and get clean JSON.

How much does it cost to scrape AliExpress?
You pay $2.50 per 1,000 products ($0.0025 per product row) plus a $0.00005 run start fee. Proxy is included. Searches with no results, blocked pages and pages that fail to parse produce a free error row instead of a charge. Set Max products in total or a maximum cost per run to cap your spend; the actor stops as soon as the cap is reached.

You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel. Failed or empty searches appear as { "keyword": "...", "error": "... Not charged." } rows.
Tips
- New-shopper prices (read this). AliExpress shows visitors without an account its first-order deals, so many cards display a very low price (often the same $1.09 or $0.33 on unrelated products) or no price at all ("free gift with any purchase"). The actor cannot log in, so it returns the price as displayed and flags these rows with
isNewShopperPrice: true. For those rows useoriginalPrice(the list price) as the regular price reference;salePriceisnullon free-gift cards. - Sold counts are exact.
soldCountcomes from AliExpress's own order counter (e.g.12634), whilesoldTextkeeps the rounded "10,000+ sold" label. When AliExpress does not expose the exact number,soldCountfalls back to the number in the label. - Currency follows the proxy country. With the default US proxy, prices are in USD; the actor retries other US IPs to keep USD and keeps one currency for all pages of a search. Always read the
currencyfield. - Product IDs are canonical. US search pages list items under 3256... IDs; the actor converts them to the standard 1005... ID, so the same product has the same
productIdandurlin every run. - Price filters apply to AliExpress's own price and can make pages shorter than 60 products; the actor simply reads more pages.
- Do not add
shipFromCountryorcurrencyparameters to search URLs: AliExpress then returns a reduced list without sold counts or ratings (the actor still returns that list as shown). - Check the spelling of keywords. For a misspelled or nonsense keyword AliExpress often shows a handful of loosely related products instead of "no results"; the actor returns those like any other result. Only searches where AliExpress shows nothing at all are free.
- Schedule the actor daily on the same keywords to build a price and sales history.
Use it with AI agents (MCP)
Give Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client this Actor as a tool through Apify's MCP server: add https://mcp.apify.com?tools=tenfoldfleet/aliexpress-search-scraper as a remote MCP server and sign in with your Apify account. The agent fills in the input, runs the Actor and reads the results itself; you pay the same per-event price as a normal run.
FAQ
Can I scrape AliExpress product detail pages or reviews?
No. This actor reads search result listings only (everything shown on the product cards). Product detail pages, SKUs and reviews are out of scope.
How many products can I get per search?
AliExpress shows 60 products per page and stops at page 60, so up to 3,600 per keyword or URL. Add more keywords, or use sort orders and price ranges, to go beyond that.
Do I need an AliExpress account, API key or cookies?
No. The actor reads only the public search pages that AliExpress shows to every visitor.
Why is storeName often empty?
AliExpress includes the store name in search results only for some products (mostly sponsored ones). Store IDs and store URLs are not part of search results at all.
Why do some rows say isAd: true?
AliExpress mixes sponsored products into search results. They are real results at their real position; filter them out with isAd if you only want organic listings.
What happens when AliExpress blocks a request?
Every page is retried on new IP addresses (and, rarely, a residential IP). If a page still fails, you get a free error row for it and are not charged.
Can I use it from code or AI agents?
Yes, through the Apify API, the JavaScript or Python client, or the Apify MCP server.
