eRank vs EverBee
Two of the most-compared Etsy tools, and they are not really competitors — one sells keywords, the other sells estimated sales numbers. We make a third kind of tool, so we have no reason to crown either. Here is the straight comparison, including the part both of them gloss over.

The one-line answer
Buy eRank if your question is "what words should I put in this listing?" Buy EverBee if your question is "which products are selling, and roughly how much?" They answer different questions and they are priced five times apart, which is the whole story.
Price and limits
From each vendor's own pricing page, 15 August 2026. Annual figures are the discounted monthly-equivalent each vendor advertises.
| eRank | EverBee | |
|---|---|---|
| Free tier | 5 keyword lookups/day, 1 shop (50 listings), 5 listing audits/day — renews daily | "Hobby" — 10 keywords, 5 saved keywords, 5 tracked shops. Product analytics limited to views, reviews and favourites (no sales figures) |
| Cheapest paid | $5.99/mo (Basic) · $5.50 annual | $29.99/mo (Growth) · $19.99 annual |
| Top tier | $29.99/mo (Expert) · $22.50 annual | $99/mo (Business) · $69 annual |
| Core product | Keyword and tag research, listing audits, competitor tracking | Product research while you browse Etsy — estimated sales, revenue and conversion rate |
| Where you use it | Web app Chrome extension available | Chrome extension first — it overlays Etsy while you browse |
| What the paid tier unlocks | More lookups per day (100 → 500), more tracked competitors (5 → 200), bigger listing limits | The sales and revenue numbers themselves. The free tier deliberately withholds them |
eRank's top plan costs the same as EverBee's cheapest one. That is not a knock on either — it reflects that they sell different things.
Where each one actually wins
eRank is better at
- Price. $5.99 entry, and a free tier you can genuinely work with at 5 lookups a day. Nothing else in the category is this cheap.
- Keyword depth. Years of Etsy search data and a very large user base feeding usage signals. This is its core product, not a side feature.
- Tag work. If you are filling 13 tag slots and want to see what related listings rank for, this is the tool people actually open.
- Listing audits. Structured checks against your own live listings, 5/day even on free.
EverBee is better at
- Browsing workflow. It lives in the Etsy tab. You are looking at a listing and the numbers are already there — no copy-pasting into another app.
- Relative demand at a glance. Whatever you think of the absolute numbers, sorting a category by estimated volume is a fast way to see what is busy and what is dead.
- Product research over keyword research. If your question is "what should I make", it is pointed at that question. eRank is pointed at "how do I word this".
- Trend windows. The top plan exposes 3/6/12/24-month growth views, which eRank does not really do.
The part both of them gloss over
EverBee's headline feature — and the reason its cheapest paid plan costs five times eRank's — is per-listing sales and revenue. It is worth understanding exactly what those numbers are, because the distinction changes how much you should trust them.
- Shop-level sales are public. Etsy displays a lifetime sales count on every shop page. Any tool can read that. It is a real number.
- Per-listing sales are not. Etsy's public API does not expose how many times an individual listing sold, or over what period. There is no endpoint for it.
- So the per-listing figure is inferred — from review counts and review timing, favourites, shop totals, listing age, and category behaviour. That is a model, not a measurement, and every tool in this category that shows a monthly sales number is doing some version of it.
- The error bars are widest exactly where it matters. Digital downloads and low-review-rate categories are the hardest to infer, and those are the categories beginners are most often told to enter.
None of that makes the numbers useless. As a relative signal — this listing is busier than that one — they are genuinely helpful, and plenty of sellers run their whole research process on them. The mistake is treating "$4,200/month" as a fact you can plan inventory around. Read it as a rank, not a revenue figure, and you will use EverBee well.
Which should you buy?
Where Growtsy fits — briefly
We make an Etsy tool, so treat this paragraph with the scepticism it deserves; it is here because leaving it out would be its own kind of dishonesty.
Growtsy is not a third keyword database and not a fourth sales estimator. It answers a different question — should I make this, and is this listing ready to publish? — and ends every analysis with one action instead of a table. It also generates listing photography from a single product shot, which neither eRank nor EverBee touches. Deliberately, it shows no sales estimates at all, for the reason described above. It starts at $9/month and there is a free allowance with no card. If what you actually want is a keyword database or a sales estimator, buy one of the two tools on this page — they are better at that than we are.

Common questions
Is EverBee worth it over eRank?
Only if you want the thing eRank does not sell. EverBee costs five times more at entry ($29.99 vs $5.99) and what you are buying is per-listing sales and revenue estimates plus a browse-Etsy workflow. If your recurring job is writing titles and tags, eRank does that better and cheaper. If your recurring job is deciding what to make, EverBee is pointed at that question.
Are EverBee sales numbers accurate?
They are estimates, not measurements, and that is true of every tool in this category. Etsy publishes a lifetime sales count per shop, but its public API does not expose per-listing sales at all — so a monthly figure for one listing is inferred from review counts and timing, favourites, shop totals and listing age. Treat the number as a rank rather than a revenue figure and it is genuinely useful; treat it as a fact you can plan inventory around and it will mislead you.
Which is cheaper, eRank or EverBee?
eRank, by a wide margin. eRank runs $5.99 to $29.99 a month; EverBee runs $29.99 to $99. eRank's most expensive plan costs the same as EverBee's cheapest. Both have a free tier, but EverBee deliberately withholds the sales figures on its free plan, which is the feature most people install it for.
Can I use eRank and EverBee together?
Yes, and for a full-time seller it is a reasonable stack because they barely overlap — research the product in EverBee, word the listing in eRank. Together they run about $36 a month. Below full-time volume it is hard to justify paying twice.
Do I need either of them to start selling on Etsy?
No. Neither tool solves a beginner's actual problem, which is usually that the product or the photos are not ready. Etsy's own search insights are free and adequate for a first listing. Buy a research tool when you have a shop with data to act on.
Still not sure what to make?
That is the question Growtsy is built for. One Scout verdict, one full listing and three AI photos, free, no card.
