Many online store owners face the challenge of adding products from Chinese marketplaces such as 1688, Taobao, Tmall or Alibaba to their own e-commerce platforms. The process often involves manual translation, price conversion, image handling, and stock updates, which can be time-consuming and prone to errors.

A service called https://otcommerce.com/ provides an API that automates this process. It allows developers and store owners to:

- Retrieve product data (titles, descriptions, images) from Chinese marketplaces

- Translate product information into different languages

- Convert prices to local currencies with custom margins

- Keep stock and price data synchronized automatically

The API Taobao can be integrated into various CMS and custom online store platforms, enabling a faster and more consistent product listing process.

This might be useful for businesses expanding their catalogs with goods from Chinese suppliers while maintaining control over pricing and product presentation.
