If you sell across many Etsy categories, an Etsy-wide tool covers products we do not search. If you sell designs on apparel, and especially on more than one marketplace, the market is the one Trendlytic reads. The right-hand column is written by us, the people who build Trendlytic.

Features
What you get
Product research on Etsy is market research, and a market answers five questions. Is anyone interested? How many sellers already compete? What do buyers pay? Is the top of the market held by old shops, or do new listings break through? And are the words you want to use free to use? Etsy gives you each answer in a different place: the competition hides behind a search, interest sits on each listing's favourite count, prices change with the seller's currency, and nothing tells you how old the leaders are. Collecting all five for one idea takes an afternoon of tabs; for ten ideas it takes the week. Trendlytic puts them on one screen for print-on-demand ideas, reading Etsy's t-shirt and apparel listings beside Redbubble, TeePublic and Amazon Merch. For any other kind of Etsy product, our free Etsy keyword tool gives you the size and the price of the market straight from Etsy's API.
Interest you can verify
Favourites and listing dates come from Etsy's official API, so any card can be checked against the listing it came from. Etsy keeps per-listing sales private, and we do not fill that gap with a guess.
The price buyers already pay
Each listing shows its price in the seller's own currency, so you see the band a new design has to fit before you pick a blank and a margin.
Is the top still open?
Rising marks young listings climbing fastest in favourites, Gaining the fast ones of any age. A market with Rising listings is still letting newcomers in.
Competition counted, not described
Listings and favourites on Etsy, top sellers on TeePublic and Redbubble, new sellers on Amazon, side by side with a verdict that weighs them.
Free tools for the first pass
The Etsy keyword tool sizes any product, the shop analyzer reads a leading shop's sales count and reviews, and the rank checker shows where your listings sit. No account.
The words cleared before the product
Any phrase from the research goes to the live USPTO register in one click, so a market built on a protected name shows up as one.
Inside the app
See it working
The size of the market, on four marketplaces at once
One search for beekeeping read 51 Etsy listings holding 1,934 favourites between them, 60 TeePublic top sellers from 53 artists, 60 Redbubble designs of which 36 are top sellers, and 3 new Amazon designs that already have reviews. The verdict turns that into a sentence you can act on: Good Opportunity, because new designs are getting their first sales while competition stays low. The same idea can be busy on one marketplace and nearly empty on the next, so this is also where you decide where to list first.
How the market talks, and how crowded each phrase is
A market is also its vocabulary. Keyword Research collects the phrases the leading beekeeping designs use, 200 of them, and for the 45 with the most demand it counts, marketplace by marketplace, the designs already competing. Bee keeper had about 1,200 rivals on Etsy; beekeeper humour had 259 there and 3 on TeePublic. That gap is often where a new design fits: the same buyer, a phrase fewer sellers have claimed.
A first look at any Etsy product, free
Not every idea is a shirt. Our free Etsy keyword tool sizes any product from Etsy's official API: how many active listings match the phrase, the typical price among the first 100, how strong the leaders are in favourites, and how many of those 100 went up in the last 90 days. Mid century modern wall art came back with 268,304 listings, $29.99 typical and 32 newcomers in the first 100, a market with room. Ten lookups a day, no account.
Built-in trademark check
Check any phrase against the live USPTO register before you design
Type a phrase and Trendlytic looks it up in the live USPTO register and shows who owns it, its status and its filing date. Included in every plan.
And the designs that were never yours to print are marked
When a result leans on a known brand, a character or a famous person, it arrives with a TM or copyright badge on the card. You see it while you are choosing, not after a takedown. A first filter, not legal advice.
How it works
- 1
Size the idea
Run the phrase through the free Etsy keyword tool, or search it in Trendlytic to read four marketplaces at once.
- 2
Read the market
Check the verdict, the competition, the prices and the Rising listings, then the phrases fewer sellers use.
- 3
Decide, then design
Send the phrase to the USPTO register, design your own take for that buyer, and list where the market has room.
Also in every plan
A mockup generator for the design you make next
When your own design for the niche is ready, drop the file in and see it on 500+ t-shirt photos in one go. Pick the shots that fit your shop, on a person or on its own, and save them at up to 2000 px with no watermark. A mockup takes 1 credit from your plan the first time and nothing after that.

Frequently asked questions
What is Etsy product research?
Checking the market for a product before you make it: whether buyers show interest, how many sellers already offer it, what it sells for, whether new listings can still reach the top, and whether the words on it are free to use. It saves you from designing for a market that is empty or already full.
What is the best Etsy product research tool?
It depends on what you sell. If you sell across many Etsy categories, an Etsy-wide tool such as eRank, EverBee or Alura covers products Trendlytic does not search. If you sell print-on-demand designs on apparel, Trendlytic reads that market on Etsy, Redbubble, TeePublic and Amazon Merch at once and checks the phrase against the USPTO register. We make Trendlytic, so weigh that answer accordingly.
Can I do Etsy product research for free?
Yes, partly. Etsy's search shows the competition, and Marketplace Insights in Shop Manager shows recent searches (15 keyword lookups a week on a free account when we checked in October 2026). Our free Etsy keyword tool, shop analyzer and rank checker read Etsy's official API with no account. Trendlytic's search is paid, from $19.99 a month after a 3-day trial.
Does Trendlytic show how many sales an Etsy listing has?
No. Etsy keeps per-listing sales private, and tools that show them are estimating. We show favourites, listing dates and prices as Etsy reports them. The free shop analyzer shows a shop's total sales, a number Etsy publishes for the shop as a whole.
Which Etsy products can Trendlytic research?
The search is built for print-on-demand and reads Etsy's t-shirt and apparel listings for the idea you type, next to Redbubble, TeePublic and Amazon Merch. For any other product, the free Etsy keyword tool gives the listing count, typical price and the newcomers among the top 100 for any phrase.
How do I know if an Etsy product idea is saturated?
Look at three things together: how many listings compete, how strong the leaders are, and whether new listings still reach the top. Hundreds of thousands of listings with old leaders holding tens of thousands of favourites and no Rising listings is a closed market. Fewer listings, modest leaders and new listings climbing is an open one.
How much does Trendlytic cost?
$19.99 a month for the four-marketplace search, Keyword Research, Trending Now and USPTO lookups, after a 3-day trial that begins with a $1 card check.
How does the 3-day free trial work?
Every plan starts with 3 days free. Starting it charges $1 to check the card is real, and that $1 is not refunded. The plan price itself is only billed when the trial ends, and cancelling before then from Manage Plan means it is never charged.
