Overview
The AliExpress Scraper extracts product titles, prices, original and discounted rates, seller ratings, transaction counts, shipping options, and customer reviews from any AliExpress category or search page. Dropshippers use it to spot winning products, compare supplier pricing, and monitor competitors without opening hundreds of tabs. Because it runs on Apify's cloud with rotating proxies, category-wide sweeps across thousands of products complete unattended. Schedule recurring runs to track price and ranking changes over time, then export to Excel, CSV, or JSON for product research spreadsheets and store-import pipelines.
