Problem

Small business owners in household goods and general merchandise with annual sales of 100 million to 1 billion KRW (approx. $75,000 to $750,000) must manually check prices across dozens of competitive channels daily to respond to rapid price cuts from value-for-money channels like Daiso, Cheonwon Mall, and AliExpress. This takes an average of 5-8 hours per week, and missing price changes frequently causes margins to drop by 10-15%.

Solution

It automatically crawls price changes by category from major value-for-money channels such as Daiso, Cheonwon Mall, Coupang, and Ali, providing daily reports and automatically calculating a price competitiveness index for your products. When competitor prices drop below a certain threshold, it sends immediate alerts to help you adjust prices proactively.

Target: Retailers of household goods and general merchandise with annual sales of 100 million to 1 billion KRW (approx. $75,000-$750,000), online sellers (ages 30-50).
Revenue Model: SaaS monthly subscription at 49,000 KRW (approx. $36.75) per account (50 monitoring categories), Premium at 99,000 KRW (approx. $74.25) per month (unlimited categories + API integration), 20% discount for annual payment.
