The real mark, used directly

Nothing leaves your browser.

The mark above is the real shipped iScale Etsy icon, loaded directly from the public extension asset — never retraced or redrawn. Your scrapes, CSV exports, and Shop View stay in your browser’s own local storage.

There are no iScale Etsy accounts, no analytics, and no tracking servers collecting what you research.

Reads the Etsy page you’re on. Stores results locally. Sends nothing to iScaleLabs.

What’s actually in the extension

Real surfaces. Nothing invented.

Everything below runs inside the extension, on the Etsy pages you already visit. The public edition is Apache-2.0 on GitHub.

Multi-term batch scrapes

Queue many Etsy search terms in one batch. Visit up to 10 search-result pages per term by default, with paced listing visits and optional randomization.

Ranking history

Records keyword, page, position, title, price, rating, review count, image, and ad flag — timestamped so you can see how a listing's rank moved over time.

Shop View

A storefront-style grid built only from your scrapes and CSV files: image, price, demand badge, digital/physical tag, favorites, reviews, and first-review date.

CSV warehouse

Import older CSV exports, merge and dedupe by listing URL or ID with fresh scrapes, filter the combined table, and export the current view.

Live dashboard

Toolbar badge shows running totals. The dashboard streams captures as they land in the popup or Chrome side panel (Chrome 114+).

Local-first

Data lives in browser IndexedDB. CSV import/export is parsed and generated locally. No account, no hosted backend, no private production endpoint in the public edition.

Basic research workflow

From search terms to a local warehouse.

From the public v5 product docs — the same steps the extension UI implements.

01Enter one or more Etsy search terms in the popup — each becomes a queued term pill. Keep the default 10 pages per term, or lower it for a test run.
02Run all terms (or a single pill). Pause, resume, or stop anytime. Listing visits stay paced; failed URLs can auto-retry when the run is idle.
03Watch the live dashboard and the toolbar badge as listings, demand signals, and search-result captures accumulate in IndexedDB.
04Open Shop View to sort/filter, import older CSVs into the same warehouse, and export the current filtered combined view.

Install from source

Clone or download the public extension line from github.com/iScale-Builders/iscale-etsy.
Chrome → chrome://extensions → enable Developer mode → Load unpacked → select the folder that contains manifest.json.
Pin the extension. Open the popup to start a batch, open Shop View to browse/import/export, or use Side panel mode (Chrome 114+) to dock the live dashboard beside Etsy.

This page describes the open-source, local-first public edition (v5). It is not a claim about any private fleet or hosted pipeline. Use the tool within Etsy’s terms.
