The problem it solves

Waiting for a wishlist item to go on sale means repeatedly checking the same product pages, and you still might miss the window when the price finally drops. You end up either overpaying or missing the deal entirely.

Who it fits

A shopper who wants to buy specific Zalando products only once the price drops to their target.

How it works

  1. You submit a product link and your target price through a simple form
  2. Every day, the system checks the current price of each product you're tracking
  3. It records the price history for you to review
  4. If a price falls below your target, you get an email notification right away
What you get

Price drops you catch without checking daily

You get an email the moment a Zalando item you're watching drops to the price you want.

What you get

A daily price log and an email alert whenever a tracked product drops below your target price.

What you need

A Gmail account and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
