China-headquartered (Hangzhou) — serving global AliExpress sellers
Data Coverage
Product pricing, seller ratings, shipping options, order velocity, hot-product trends
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.
