Notice

Product Preview

PeakMarketing is currently under development. Interfaces shown in the product preview use demonstration data while Etsy API access is being requested. Demonstration values are not Etsy marketplace data. Production marketplace information would be retrieved through the official Etsy Open API where authorized.

Capabilities

What PeakMarketing does

The product is intended to organize public marketplace information so sellers can inspect listings, shops, and derived comparisons with more context.

  • Marketplace Research

    Search and review active marketplace listings using public listing information, including keywords, price range, and category filters where the API supports them.

  • Listing Analysis

    Compare listing details such as title, price, favorites, tags, category, listing timestamps, and daily tabulated listing views when an individual listing is retrieved.

  • Shop Research

    Review publicly available shop-level information such as shop name, active listing count, shop favorites, location, shop-level sales totals, and a shop's active listings.

  • Market Comparison

    Calculate useful comparisons from returned listing results, including price ranges, averages, medians, price position within a result set, listing age, and tag frequency.

Data classification

How information is distinguished

PeakMarketing is being designed to keep API-returned fields, derived calculations, and unavailable data clearly separated.

  • Etsy-Provided Data

    Information returned directly through Etsy's authorized API endpoints. Examples include listing title, description, URL, minimum listing price, favorites, tags, category identifiers, listing timestamps, listing state, shop name, active listing count, shop favorites, shop location, shop-level sales totals, and daily tabulated listing views when an individual listing is retrieved.

  • Calculated Insights

    Metrics PeakMarketing can derive from API-returned datasets. Examples include average price, median price, price range, price position within a result set, listing age from timestamps, and tag frequency.

  • Historical Observations

    Possible future trend information created from authorized observations over time. This would remain subject to Etsy's API terms, storage and caching rules, and approved access. PeakMarketing does not currently collect or present historical marketplace archives.

  • Unavailable Data

    PeakMarketing will not present data as Etsy-provided when Etsy's public API does not expose it. This includes individual listing sales counts and conversion rates. Private seller records such as receipts, email addresses, inactive listings, and other sellers' SKUs also remain unavailable without the required authorization.

Etsy Open API

How PeakMarketing uses Etsy data

The proposed use for PeakMarketing is seller-focused marketplace research and decision support. Where access is granted, marketplace information would be retrieved through the official Etsy Open API. API access has not been granted yet.

  • Search active marketplace listings by keyword, price range, and category.
  • Retrieve listing metadata such as title, description, URL, timestamps, and listing state.
  • Retrieve pricing, favorites, tags, and taxonomy or category identifiers.
  • Retrieve public shop information, including shop-level sales totals and active listing counts.
  • Retrieve daily tabulated listing views when requesting an individual listing.
  • Compare returned listing datasets and calculate derived research metrics from those results.

Application API access

Every Etsy Open API request requires an application API key. Public marketplace research endpoints — including active listing search, individual listing retrieval, public shop lookup, and taxonomy — do not require OAuth. Those endpoints can return public listing and shop fields after an application is authorized to use the API.

OAuth authorization

Private seller or account data requires OAuth 2.0 authorization and the scopes specified by those endpoints. Examples include inactive listings, receipts and transaction records, private profile details, and SKUs belonging to other sellers. PeakMarketing would request those scopes only if a later feature needs that access and a user grants it.

Transparency

What PeakMarketing does not do

  • It does not claim access to private seller information without authorization.
  • It does not represent calculated metrics as Etsy-provided metrics.
  • It does not claim Etsy endorsement.
  • It will not expose data that the API does not provide or authorize.
