DealBench

DealBench helps shoppers avoid fake discounts and bad “limited-time” pricing on electronics. It tracks real price history across major retailers, flags suspicious price spikes before a sale, and estimates a fair price range based on historical lows, seasonality, and product lifecycle (e.g., new model releases). You can paste a product URL or scan a barcode in-store to see a simple “Buy / Wait / Avoid” verdict with the reasoning. It also warns when a product is likely near end-of-life, has frequent returns, or is commonly bundled with low-value accessories. The app focuses on being accurate and fast rather than trying to be a full shopping marketplace. Monetization is straightforward: affiliate links when users choose to buy, plus a small subscription for advanced alerts and multi-retailer tracking.
