SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 14, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — As the hectic holiday shopping season arrives, the new Price.com, the most comprehensive product search engine for everyday consumers, today announced the launch of the Price.com Facebook Chatbot as well as the Price.com Chrome Browser extension. By analyzing billions of data points, the Price.com Facebook Chatbot and Chrome Browser Extension deliver consumers the best AI powered shopping alternatives in time for Black Friday and the busy holiday shopping season.
The intuitive Price.com Facebook Chatbot allows consumers to simply copy and paste a product page URL from a retail website into the Chatbot within Facebook Messenger. The Price.com Chatbot then quickly responds, with real-time results. Not just another price comparison engine, Price.com utilizes sophisticated machine learning and artificial intelligence to aggregate multiple, item-level factors that go into a purchasing decision, including the best prices, used good options, generic products, coupon codes and even similar product recommendations. Based on price history, the Price.com Facebook Chatbot also provides consumers with a recommendation on whether to purchase the product at today’s best shown price or wait for prices to potentially drop.
“Price.com is the ultimate solution for everyday consumers seeking the best deal,” said RJ Jain, Founder and CEO of Price.com. “This is especially true during the holiday season. Between constantly changing promotional offers and a new wave of non-traditional retailers offering alternative shopping options, there are countless sites to scour looking for the right deal. Price.com tackles these problems head-on by seamlessly providing shoppers with all the information they need to make a quick, cost-effective and confident purchase.”
At launch, the Price.com Facebook Chatbot is optimized to help consumers save money using Amazon, Target or Walmart URLs. Numerous other shopping URLs will work today, and the company is adding more retailers and products on a weekly basis to its extensive database, which has already eclipsed 100M+ products.
Accompanying the launch of the Price.com Facebook Chatbot, consumers can also now download the Price.com Chrome Extension, which offers visual search with image recognition to make all images shoppable. The Price.com Chrome Extension provides a seamless shopping experience that enables consumers to shop their favorite websites while seeing all the shopping options in one place.
The company plans to release fully optimized web search on Price.com, as well as new cross-platform products, early next year.
