Where Etsy Radar Works
Etsy Radar works on Etsy search results pages and individual Etsy product pages. Eliminating the need to use Product Finder from your ProfitTree platform. Etsy Radar and Product Finder share the same data.
What Etsy Radar Shows
When active, Etsy Radar displays marketplace insights directly on search results, such as:
Demand indicators
Listing visibility signals
Competitive context
Estimated product monthly sales
Estimated product monthly revenue
Estimated product total revenue
Views
Listing age
Product tags
These metrics help you quickly scan search results and identify opportunities worth deeper research.
Keep in mind that Product Finder and Etsy Radar show the same data. It is just a matter of where you want to access the data from. If you are comfortable with the ProfitTree dashboard, use that. If you do not wish to open ProfitTree all the time, that is where Etsy Radar comes into play.
Best Practices for Using Etsy Radar
Use Etsy search normally, then activate Etsy Radar to evaluate results
Compare multiple listings, not just one
Keep your Chrome extension logged in and synced
Etsy Radar is designed for discovery and validation, not final decision-making.
Current Limitations
Data availability depends on Etsy’s page structure and permissions
International sellers may see currency differences depending on Etsy settings
Summary
Etsy Radar helps you research Etsy products faster by displaying insights directly on Etsy search pages. Combined with Product Finder and other ProfitTree research tools, it allows you to explore ideas efficiently without constantly switching platforms.
