AI Deal Finder

A deal is a price that is genuinely lower than usual. That is a claim about history, and it is checkable.

Most advertised discounts are not measurements

"50% off" is a statement about two numbers, and shops choose both. The higher one is frequently a figure that was displayed briefly and charged to nobody, which makes the percentage arithmetic rather than evidence.

The only way to check is to look at what the thing has actually cost over time. A price that dropped from a level genuinely being charged is a discount; one that dropped from a number invented last week is a layout choice.

How a price line settles it

Each product page charts up to 90 days of recorded prices with the all-time low and high. That turns "is this cheap?" from a feeling into a reading: near the bottom of its own range, mid-range, or simply back to normal after a rise.

It also exposes the common pattern where a price climbs shortly before a sale event and returns to its long-run level during it.

Alerts that fire on what you would pay

Set a target on any product and the price is re-checked on a schedule. The alert fires when the landed total — price plus shipping — actually falls below your figure, not when a shop publishes a banner.

That distinction matters most during sale periods, when the volume of announced discounts is highest and the proportion of real ones is lowest.

Common questions

What counts as a genuine deal?
A landed total meaningfully below what the product has actually been selling for recently, from a merchant that can be relied on to ship it. Both halves matter: a record low from a shop that cannot deliver is not a deal.
How do you spot a fake discount?
Compare the "was" price against the recorded history. If the higher figure does not appear in the price line — or appears only just before the sale — the reduction is measured from a number nobody paid.
Do you have coupon or voucher codes?
No. This compares the prices merchants publish and the shipping they charge. Codes are worth checking on the merchant's own page once you have decided where to buy.
Will I be told the moment a price drops?
Alerts are checked on a schedule rather than continuously, so there is a delay between a drop and the email. For a normal price movement that is fine; for a limited-quantity flash sale, nothing that emails you is fast enough.
