Seen on Etsy means we found a real listing. Idea to test means nobody has proven it yet, so it can never count as a good bet.

How the score works

Every product gets a score from 0 to 100: profit per print hour (30), demand (25), competition (20), legal and IP risk (15), evidence quality (10). Scores come from public prices and signals, not sales data, so use them to choose what to test next.
