Description
Niche Kompass is a Chrome extension that analyzes the visual patterns in Etsy search results. See what dominates the grid — from recurring visual styles and palettes to image patterns, archetypes, and visual overlap. Instead of looking at listings one by one, see the visual market as a whole. No shop connection required. Just search Etsy and open Niche Kompass. Not a prediction of sales or business outcomes.

Could you build this?
Partial Building the Chrome extension UI and scraping listings is straightforward, but clustering visual styles, archetypes, and palette overlap across Etsy images requires a custom computer vision pipeline.
What it would actually take: The architecture would consist of a Chrome extension content script that extracts image URLs, sending them to a backend processing pipeline using Python (e.g., FastAPI). The backend runs images through a vision embedding model (such as CLIP or SigLIP) alongside color quantization algorithms (k-means) and clustering algorithms (UMAP/HDBSCAN) to group styles and detect visual overlap. The hard part is tuning visual feature extraction and similarity thresholds to yield meaningful e-commerce aesthetic categories without high latency or excessive compute costs.
