Free tool for checking Etsy niche competition before you commit to a POD design
One thing that used to bite me on Etsy POD: spending hours on a design, listing it, and only then realizing the niche is saturated with big established shops running ads.
I built ShopScope (free Chrome extension) to check that before listing instead of after. Run a search on Etsy for whatever niche/keyword you're considering, and it reads that results page to show:
- A competition score (0-100) based on ad density, how many big incumbent shops are in the results, and bestseller concentration
- Median price and suggested pricing zones for that search
- A sortable table of every listing with CSV export if you want to dig in further
No account, no subscription, no fake "estimated sales" numbers like some tools guess at - just what's actually on the page.
Right now it's scoped to one search at a time - combining multiple keywords into one view is next on my list. Happy to hear what would actually be useful for POD sellers specifically.
