Why Sellers Look for Toolsy Alternatives
Toolsy is a good starting point, but growing sellers often need more advanced features:
📺
Ad-Supported Free Tier
Free users deal with advertisements throughout the platform. Ads interrupt your workflow and create a distracting research experience when you need to focus.
🔒
Limited Advanced Features
Many powerful features are locked behind paid plans. Free users get basic keyword research but miss out on advanced analytics, trend insights, and optimization tools.
📊
Basic Trend Data
Trend analysis is limited compared to professional tools. Without detailed sales signals, competition scores, and historical data, you may miss profitable opportunities.
🚫
Etsy-Only Platform
No support for Amazon, POD platforms, or KDP book research. If you want to diversify beyond Etsy, you need additional tool subscriptions.
🎯
Basic Tag Suggestions
Tag recommendations are helpful but lack the AI-powered optimization that identifies high-converting keywords and understands search intent patterns.
📈
Limited Shop Analytics
Shop analysis features don't provide the depth of competitor research, sales tracking, and market positioning insights available in advanced tools.
🚀
When Basic Features Aren't Enough
Toolsy provides helpful basic keyword research and tag suggestions for Etsy sellers getting started. However, as your business grows, you may find yourself needing more comprehensive data,advanced AI optimization, and multi-platform research capabilities.
The ad-supported free tier can be distracting when you're trying to focus on research. And being limited to Etsy means you need additional tools if you want to expand to Amazon, POD, or KDP.
Insight Agent offers a professional-grade alternative with ad-free experience, advanced DSPy AI agents, comprehensive trend data with sales signals, and multi-platform coverage - all in one tool.

Real results from sellers using advanced tools
Insight Agent is my preferred research tool for both my Etsy stores and those of my clients. It's been instrumental in helping me discover low-competition search terms that boost organic traffic to my listings on Etsy. Additionally, I use it to discover trending products that I can create and list. As long as I continue to operate an Etsy store, I will remain a loyal user of Insight Agent!
I LOVE Insight Agent. Most of my sales have come from Insight Agent Trends. I love it because it helps me make the best use of my time. Before I would bounce from one thing to another, feel like I was wasting my time, but with Insight Agent I know that someone is looking for what I'm creating! And I LOVE the time saving factor of copying the tags.
