Hey devs,
I recently launched Redtry, a side project I’ve been working on to fix something that drives me (and a lot of people) crazy: trying to figure out what to buy online.
Most shopping experiences rely on infinite scrolling, fake reviews, and algorithmic suggestions that don’t actually help. Redtry is an AI-powered assistant that turns product research into a conversation.
What it does:
- Summarizes real reviews from Reddit, YouTube, and ecommerce platforms
- Helps users decide what to buy based on real intent (not just keywords)
- Tracks price drops and filters the noise
- No real sign-up — just type anything to get started
The idea is to reduce decision fatigue, especially for people buying high-value products like laptops, skincare, or gifts.
Still early, but I’d love feedback from anyone who tries it:
- Would you trust this over traditional review sites?
- What would make this genuinely useful or even habit-forming?
- Are there specific features you’d want added?
Happy to answer any questions or share how I built it. Appreciate any thoughts!
