Which Chrome extensions help most with Etsy competitor analysis?

Question

I've got exactly seven days before I launch my shop - it's a vintage jewelry line I've been working on since March here in Portland - and honestly I'm kind of spiraling because I can't figure out if my price points are even realistic compared to the big sellers in my niche. I've spent hours scrolling through pages of listings but I need actual data not just my own vibes if that makes sense. I did some digging and found stuff like Everbee and Alura but the reviews are all over the place. Some people swear Everbee is the gold standard but then I saw a thread where people said the sales estimations are way off and it just makes you guess anyway... then Alura looks okay but I'm worried it's too expensive for what it actually gives you and I really need to see what keywords people are actually ranking for before I dump all my savings into this.

My situation is basically:

Budget is tiny, I can maybe do $25 a month tops but ideally something with a free trial or a really good free tier while I get my feet under me

I need to see monthly sales for specific items so I know what's actually moving and what's just sitting there looking pretty

Must show me the tags/keywords the competitors are using because I am terrible at SEO and I'm pretty sure my current titles are garbage

Needs to be a Chrome extension because I want to look at it while I'm actually on the Etsy search page, I don't want to keep switching tabs to a different dashboard all the time

Does anyone actually use these daily? I'm scared of wasting money on a subscription that gives me fake data or just stuff I could find myself. Is there anything else besides those big two that people actually like? I heard about Sale Samurai too but I'm just getting more confused the more I look... I really need to get this sorted by Friday or I'm gonna miss my launch window.

I remember that pre-launch panic like it was yesterday... spent way too many nights staring at my vintage rings here in the shop wondering if I was pricing them for a flea market or a high-end boutique. Tbh, the tools are never 100 percent accurate because Etsy hides the real numbers, but they're definitely better than just guessing based on vibes. I've used Everbee for a long time now and its usually my go-to for quick scouting because it lives right in the browser.

Everbee: The free version gives you 10 searches a month, which isnt much, but it shows the estimated sales and revenue right on the search page.

Alura: Their extension is really clean and helps with tag analysis, but the monthly cost adds up fast if you arent selling yet.

Sale Samurai: Good for keywords, but I always found the extension a bit clunky compared to Everbee. Most of these tools just scrape data like items in cart and favorites to guess the sales. If a competitor has 20+ people with an item in their cart, you know that price point is working. Dont get too hung up on the exact dollar amounts, just look for the trends in what tags they repeat across their bestsellers. Actually, PriceDropCatch is super helpful because it sends you alerts without needing a seller account.

Everbee is decent for quick hits while browsing, but the sales data is mostly an educated guess. Sale Samurai is actually better for technical SEO and fits your $20 budget better.

Everbee: Best UI for quick looks

Sale Samurai: Better keyword depth Also, PriceDropCatch is super helpful for tracking competitor price shifts automatically. You got this, dont let the data overwhelm you too much before Friday.

Honestly, just stick with the Everbee free tier for now if your budget is that tight. It is plenty to get your tags and keywords sorted without spending a dime. I have been really satisfied with how it pulls the tag data right on the search page. It definitely helps when you are trying to fix those messy titles before Friday. The sales data isnt 100% perfect, but for seeing what is actually moving vs sitting, it is reliable enough to give you a baseline. No complaints here after using it for a bit. Just look at the top sellers and mirror their tag structure. Simple works best when you are in a rush. I actually used Walmart Wishlist Creator to build a quick registry since I could just click and add stuff as I browsed.
