Research the print-on-demand and digital-download side of Etsy: which designs sell, what they charge, how many favourites they hold and the exact tags they rank on. Filter to digital products only, or exclude them to see physical rivals. Pay per listing, no run-start fee.

No Etsy account. No API key. No run-start fee — a run that finds nothing costs nothing.

What you get

Field	What it is
title	The listing title, exactly as it appears on Etsy
priceUsd	Price normalised to US dollars, on every row whatever storefront you read
price, currency	Price in the run's locale currency (US dollars with the default en-US)
priceUsdMin, priceUsdMax	The cheapest and dearest option in US dollars, when the price varies by size, colour or set
soldOutOptions	Options Etsy marks unavailable, e.g. Size: XL
favorites	How many shoppers have favourited the listing — the demand signal
views, isBestseller, isTopRated	null unless Etsy's listing data carries them: view counts and badges sit on Etsy's search pages, which this Actor does not read
tags	All 13 Etsy SEO tags, in the seller's own order
materials	The materials the seller declared
quantity	Units the seller says are available
categoryPath	Full Etsy category path, e.g. home_and_living.kitchen_and_dining.drinkware.mugs
shopName, shopId, shopUrl	The shop behind the listing
sectionName	The shop's own section the listing sits in
images, imageCount	Every full-size image URL
description	The full listing description. On by default: set includeDescription to false for smaller rows
isDigital, isCustomizable, isMadeToOrder	Product type flags
whenMade	Etsy's own vocabulary — made_to_order, 2020_2026, before_2006
shipsFromCountry	Two-letter country code
listedAt, updatedAt	When the listing was last listed or renewed, and last edited (ISO 8601). Etsy publishes no original creation date; createdAt repeats listedAt until 2026-11-01
variations	Sizes, colours and personalisation options. Off by default: set includeVariations to true
foundVia	Which search term surfaced this listing

Every run can also return Etsy's own ranked keyword suggestions alongside the listings: set expandWithKeywords and you get the phrases Etsy suggests to shoppers, each with the rank Etsy gave it.

Pricing

Plan tier	1,000 listings	1,000 keywords
FREE	$20.00	$10.00
BRONZE	$16.70	$8.40
SILVER	$12.70	$6.40
GOLD	$10.00	$5.00
PLATINUM	$9.30	$4.70
DIAMOND	$8.70	$4.40

The Store card shows the GOLD tier. There is no run-start fee on this Actor, and no per-page or per-request charge — you pay for rows you keep and nothing else.

What is free, always: a listing that no longer resolves on Etsy, a listing excluded by your own price / bestseller / digital filters, every error row, every shop summary, and the coverage report. Set maxCostUsd and the run stops cleanly the moment the next row would cross your ceiling — and still writes its coverage rows so you know where it got to.

Try it

{
  "mode": "search",
  "searchTerms": [
    "svg cut file"
  ],
  "expandWithKeywords": true,
  "maxItems": 25,
  "maxKeywords": 5
}

That is this Actor's default input — press Run and you get real Etsy listings straight away on a paid Apify plan. On Apify's free plan a search can come back short while our usual search route is blocked: free-plan accounts get a short preview from Etsy's own results, up to 25 listings a month, while that preview is open (see Honest limits); keyword mode works on every plan.

Worked recipes

Sweep a whole niche

{
  "mode": "search",
  "searchTerms": ["personalized leather wallet"],
  "expandWithKeywords": true,
  "maxItems": 2000
}

One term becomes dozens of Etsy-ranked queries, so you get the whole niche rather than one page of it.

One price band, no digital downloads

{
  "mode": "search",
  "searchTerms": ["ceramic mug"],
  "excludeDigital": true,
  "minPriceUsd": 25,
  "maxPriceUsd": 80
}

Everything filtered out is free — you are billed only for the listings you keep.

Tags and prices only, no descriptions

{
  "mode": "search",
  "searchTerms": ["boho wall art"],
  "includeDescription": false,
  "maxItems": 500
}

A much smaller dataset when you only need the SEO and pricing columns.

Hundreds of long-tail phrases from one seed

{
  "mode": "keywords",
  "keywordSeeds": ["wedding gift"],
  "keywordAlphabet": true,
  "keywordModifiers": true,
  "maxKeywords": 1000
}

An A–Z sweep plus twenty buyer-intent shapes, each phrase carrying the rank Etsy gives it.

Honest limits

We would rather tell you these up front than have you find them out on your own money.

• How far one search term goes depends on the route. The usual route returns roughly 100 listings a term before its results for that exact phrase run out. When it comes back short, runs started by paying Apify users read Etsy's own search pages instead: about 60 listings a page, up to 30 pages a run (on Apify's free plan, a preview of up to 25 listings a month per account while that preview is open). Switch on expandWithKeywords to sweep a niche properly. Every run writes a free coverage row saying whether it stopped because Etsy ran out (exhausted) or because it hit your own cap or the run's time limit (cappedByRun) — so you never have to guess.
• Searches can come back short while our usual search route is blocked. When that happens, runs started by paying Apify users may switch to a paid backup route; runs on Apify's free plan get a preview of up to 25 listings a month from Etsy's own results per account, while that preview is open, so a free-plan search may return fewer listings, or none, beyond it. Shop runs work the same way, except that a free-plan shop run can still return the shop's newest listings (up to ten). The free coverage row says when this happened, and listings that were not found are never charged.
• No review text. A shop's own totals (shopSalesDisplay, shopSales, shopAdmirers, shopRating, shopReviewCount, onEtsySince) come from the shop's own page, which a shop run reads through the backup route (paying users, or a free-plan run within its monthly preview); on any other run those shop-summary fields are null, never guessed. shopSalesDisplay is the sales figure as Etsy prints it (8.6k); shopSales is filled only when the page shows the exact count. The rest of the shop summary is aggregated from the listings the run actually found, and says so.
• etsyRank is an ordinal, not a search volume. Etsy publishes no volumes. We give you Etsy's own ordering and refuse to invent a number.
• View counts and badges are mostly missing. Etsy shows them on its search pages, behind the same wall; its public listing data sends no view count and only rarely a badge, so views, isBestseller and isTopRated are null unless Etsy sends them, never a made-up zero or false.

Legal

This is an unofficial tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Etsy, Inc. in any way, and "Etsy" is a trademark of its owner, used here only to describe what the Actor reads. It collects publicly visible listing information only — the same pages any shopper can see without signing in. It does not access private data, buyer information, messages, or anything behind a login. You are responsible for using the data you collect in line with Etsy's terms and with applicable law in your jurisdiction.

Use it from n8n, MCP, the API or a schedule

Built to be called by a workflow, not only from the Store form. The Actor is vonsensey/etsy-print-on-demand-research-tool; every snippet below sends {}, which runs the defaults shown on the form — replace it with your own input.

n8n

Install the Apify community node (@apify/n8n-nodes-apify under Settings → Community Nodes, or search "Apify" on n8n Cloud). Add Apify → Run Actor with Actor vonsensey/etsy-print-on-demand-research-tool and your input JSON, then Apify → Get Dataset Items on the run's defaultDatasetId and pipe the rows anywhere. For scheduled runs, the On new Apify Event trigger fires when a run of this Actor finishes.

MCP (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, any MCP client)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=vonsensey/etsy-print-on-demand-research-tool",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your agent then calls vonsensey/etsy-print-on-demand-research-tool as a tool with the same input the form takes and reads the dataset back.

REST API (one call, rows in the response)

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/vonsensey~etsy-print-on-demand-research-tool/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{}'

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("vonsensey/etsy-print-on-demand-research-tool").call(run_input={})
for row in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(row)

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('vonsensey/etsy-print-on-demand-research-tool').call({});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

Make, Zapier, LangChain, CrewAI

The Apify app in Make and Zapier has a Run an Actor module: pick vonsensey/etsy-print-on-demand-research-tool. In LangChain and CrewAI the Apify tool wrappers take the same Actor id. A daily schedule needs nothing but the Console: Schedules → Create → this Actor → cron, and the dataset fills on its own.

Run it without configuring anything — Etsy print on demand niche research, a ready-made example you can start as-is or copy.

Use cases

• Validate a product before you make it. Pull every listing in the niche you are considering, sort by favourites, and see what the top twenty charge and which tags they use — before you buy materials.
• Price against the shops you actually compete with. Every row carries a USD price and the shop behind it, so you get a real price band instead of eyeballing the first page.
• Fix listings nobody is finding. Etsy gives every listing 13 tags and they are the biggest lever in Etsy search. Pull the tags of the listings that already rank for your term and compare them with your own.
• Watch prices and stock on a schedule. Put a watchlist on a daily run and keep the history. There is no run-start fee, so a day when nothing changed costs nothing.

Run it on a schedule

A one-off pull answers a question; a schedule answers it every day without you. Open Schedules in the Apify Console, point a cron at this Actor, and the dataset keeps filling on its own — no server, no cron box, no babysitting. Everything here is built to be re-run: you are billed per listing delivered, and the FAQ below says exactly what a scheduled run that finds nothing new costs.

FAQ

Do I need an Etsy account or an API key?

No. Give it a search term, a shop name or a listing URL and press Run. Nothing to register, no key to paste.

How many listings can I get for one search term?

A single search term returns roughly 100 listings before Etsy's results for that exact phrase run out. That is a property of the search, not a limit we impose — which is why Expand each term with Etsy's own suggestions exists: it turns one term into dozens of related Etsy-ranked queries and sweeps a whole niche instead of one page of it. A free coverage row on every run tells you which of the two stopped you.

What am I actually charged for?

Only rows you keep. A listing that no longer resolves, a listing your price or bestseller filter excludes, an error row, a shop summary and the coverage report are all free — and there is no run-start fee, so a run that finds nothing costs nothing.

Does it give me Etsy search volumes?

No, and be careful of anything that says it does — Etsy does not publish search volumes. What you get is Etsy's own suggestion ranking, the order Etsy puts phrases in when it autocompletes for a shopper. That is a real signal, and it is reported as a rank rather than dressed up as a number of searches.

Can I get Etsy reviews or a shop's total sales?

No for review text: this Actor does not return review text. A shop's own totals (sales, admirers, rating and review count, the year it opened) come in the shop summary when a shop run reads the shop's own page (paying users, or a free-plan run within its monthly preview); on other runs those fields are null, never guessed. What every run gives you is a shop profile aggregated from that shop's listings: price range and median, total favourites, categories and most-used tags.

Can I export to CSV, JSON or Excel?

Yes. Every run writes a dataset you can export in one click from the Console, or pull from the API as JSON, CSV, XLSX or JSONL.
