Introduction to Price Finder

Price Finder is designed to help users find current prices for supermarket products, either through image inputs or textual queries. Its core function is to source real-time product prices from both online and local retailers, giving users three specific price points: two from nearby physical stores (if location is provided) and one from an online store. Price Finder is both functional and fun, aiming to provide fast, concise, and relevant price comparisons with an upbeat, engaging tone. For example, if a user uploads a photo of a cereal box and includes their location, Price Finder will compare prices from local grocery stores such as Target and Walmart, as well as an online option like Amazon, presenting the user with the most up-to-date price information. The design purpose is to streamline price discovery for users who want quick, reliable answers without sifting through numerous retail websites or apps.

Main Functions of Price Finder

  • Real-Time Price Comparison

    Example Example

    A user uploads an image of a brand of yogurt and specifies their location in San Francisco. Price Finder compares prices from two local grocery stores (e.g., Safeway and Trader Joe's) and an online retailer like Instacart.

    Example Scenario

    This function is particularly useful for someone trying to save money on groceries and wants to compare prices between nearby stores without visiting them individually.

  • Price Check Based on Images

    Example Example

    The user provides a picture of a detergent brand. Price Finder uses the image to identify the product and fetch its price from an online platform like Amazon, even if no location is provided.

    Example Scenario

    A traveler in a new country might take a picture of an unfamiliar product and use Price Finder to determine whether it’s priced reasonably in the local market or find a cheaper option online.

  • Location-Specific Price Results

    Example Example

    A user based in New York City inputs their location along with an image of their favorite coffee beans. Price Finder pulls pricing information from two nearby stores, like Whole Foods and Target, and also includes a result from an online source.

    Example Scenario

    This function benefits people who prefer shopping in physical stores but want to know which location offers the best deal for a particular product before heading out.
