Where each one falls short

Against the other two on this page. SpotPeaks is not left out.

Dropship.io

TikTok ad research and order fulfillment, which Sell The Trend has and Dropship.io's site does not list, and a profit check after ad costs. Its sales figures are estimates, and lookups use credits on every plan.

Sell The Trend

Store sales estimates and TikTok Shop data, which Dropship.io has, and a profit check after ad costs. Its ad tools start on Essential at $49.97, and the 14-day trial asks for a card.

SpotPeaks

Store sales estimates and order fulfillment, which it does not have, and far fewer TikTok ads than Facebook ads so far. It is newer than both, so it does not have years of ad history.

Each tool in full

What each does well, where it falls short, every plan and its trial.

Dropship.io

Tracking what Shopify stores sell

Dropship.io is the pick for tracking what competing Shopify stores and TikTok Shop sellers sell, with sales and revenue estimates for each.

What it does well

Good at answering "what is this store selling and how much", with a product library, a competitor tracker and a Chrome extension. Plans share the same tools and differ mainly in credits and limits.

Where it falls short

Searches and lookups use credits on every plan, and sales and revenue figures are estimates rather than store data.

Price: Basic $39 a month; Standard $59 a month; Premium $99 a month; $26, $34 and $49 a month on yearly billing
Free trial: Free trial
Pick it if: You already have competitors in mind and want to see what they sell.

Sell The Trend

An all-in-one start: research, store and fulfillment

Sell The Trend is the pick for an all-in-one start, combining AI product research with a store builder, one-click import and order fulfillment.

What it does well

One subscription covers finding a product, importing it to your store and fulfilling orders, which suits someone who wants fewer tools. Its AI research ranks products by trend.

Where it falls short

The ad research sits on the higher plans: Facebook ad winners start on Essential and TikTok on Pro. The Lite plan covers product research without the ad tools.

Price: Lite $29.97 a month; Essential $49.97; Pro $99.97; Pro+ $299.97; about a third less on yearly billing
Free trial: 14 days free (card required)
Pick it if: You want one subscription from research through to fulfilled orders.

SpotPeaks

Knowing whether a product still pays after ad costs

SpotPeaks is the pick when the question is whether a product will still make money after you pay for the ads, because it works out the price to charge and what you keep per sale for every product it shows.

What it does well

Every product comes with the full cost of selling it in the US: the item, shipping, import duty, the card fee and the ad cost of one buyer, so you see what you keep before you spend anything. It also reads the stores already selling a product and how long their ads have run, and turns a pick into a launch plan with the ad copy written.

Where it falls short

It is a newer tool, so it does not have years of ad history yet. It does not fulfill orders, and its prices and ad costs are worked out for selling in the US, so sellers aiming at other markets will need to adjust.

Price: Research $29.99 a month; Launch $49.99 a month or $419 a year; Launch Plus $69.99 a month or $587 a year
Free trial: 7 days free on Launch and Launch Plus; none on Research
Pick it if: You are choosing your first or next product and want to know it pays before you spend on ads.
