AI Competitor Product Tracker
A home appliance brand pastes links to 120 rival vacuums on Shopee, Lazada and brand sites. AI reads the text and photos and fills one spec sheet.
Client: A home appliance brand in Singapore
- pages from Shopee, Lazada and 10+ brand sites
- 400+
- per product
- 2–3 min
- specs per product, photos included
- 41
In the client's words: “I've only got mine to be 90% accurate and having to manually double check if the information is right takes too much time.”
The problem
A home appliance brand in Singapore tracks 120 competitor vacuums: 400+ pages on Shopee, Lazada and 10+ brand sites, about 40 specs each. Linking AI to the sheet, then feeding it PDFs, still left errors. Shopee and Lazada block most bots, and some specs only appear in product photos.
What I built
One AI system with a simple dashboard:
- 1Paste the product links and click Start
- 2Many pages open at once, pausing on a CAPTCHA
- 3AI reads the text and the product photos
- 4Check results in a table, export to Excel
The hard part
The plan started as 2 websites, then grew to 10+ brand sites, each one different. So one AI system reads any page. Then sources disagreed: Shopee said 120W for one vacuum, Lazada said 150W. The client's rule is now built in: brand site first, then Shopee, then Lazada, lowest price wins, and a spec it can't find stays blank.
The results
- 2 to 3 minutes per product, several at once
- 41 specs per product, photos included
- 1 to 2 cents of AI cost per product
- 5-star review: “He went above and beyond”
