China-headquartered (Hangzhou) — serving global AliExpress sellers

Data Coverage

Actowiz Solutions delivered AliExpress competitive intelligence for a Hangzhou-based SaaS platform serving 12,000+ AliExpress sellers globally — tracking 4M+ AliExpress products with real-time pricing, seller performance, and hot-product trend signals.

Client Overview

The client is a Hangzhou-based e-commerce SaaS platform serving small and medium AliExpress sellers worldwide with pricing optimisation, product research, and competitive intelligence tools. With 12,000+ paying users and a growing dropshipping ecosystem, real-time AliExpress data was the foundation of every feature.

AliExpress is uniquely complex to scrape — operates in 40+ languages, ships to 200+ countries, and has dynamic per-country pricing that varies even for identical SKUs.

Business Challenges

4M+ Product Universe

AliExpress hosts 100M+ products globally; covering the 4M most-relevant SKUs for the client's seller base required massive crawl infrastructure.

Multi-Country Pricing Dynamics

Same SKU often priced differently for US, EU, Brazilian, Russian, and Australian buyers — needed multi-country capture.

Hot-Product Trend Detection

Identifying which products were trending before they peaked was the platform's most valuable feature — but signals were buried in order-velocity data and competitor seller behaviour.

Seller Reputation Tracking

AliExpress seller ratings, dispute rates, and review velocity directly affected dropshipping success — sellers needed continuous monitoring.

Project Objectives

The client partnered with Actowiz Solutions to:

  • Index 4M+ AliExpress products with daily refresh

  • Capture multi-country pricing across top 15 dropshipping markets

  • Detect hot-product trends 2-4 weeks before peak

  • Track seller reputation and reliability metrics

  • Deliver intelligence via the client's SaaS dashboard to 12,000+ users

Actowiz Solutions Approach

Massive-Scale Crawl Infrastructure

Distributed crawl architecture with thousands of residential IPs across 15+ countries — handling AliExpress's complex anti-bot stack while sustaining 4M product refreshes daily.

Multi-Country Price Capture

Per-country session simulation captured localised pricing, shipping rates, and ETA across US, UK, DE, FR, BR, RU, AU, CA, MX, ES, IT, PL, NL, IN markets.

Hot-Product Detection Engine

Combined order-velocity signals (visible 'orders' count), review acceleration, and competitor-seller listing velocity to surface trending products before they peaked.

Seller Reputation Monitoring

Daily snapshots of seller ratings, dispute rates, and recent reviews; flagged sellers with deteriorating metrics for client-facing alerts.

SaaS Dashboard Integration

All intelligence delivered into the client's user-facing SaaS dashboard — supporting product research, price optimisation, and seller-reliability filtering.
