Comparing real purchase cost across approved retailers.
AI Product · Commerce · Engineering
ImportNest — search once, compare approved offers.
Overview
ImportNest helps shoppers compare offers from approved retailers using Total Known Cost — not just sticker price.
The problem
Sticker price hides shipping, fees, and offer quality. Shoppers need a clearer comparison before they buy.
Approach
Natural-language search across approved retailers, with Total Known Cost as the primary comparison signal.
Key features
Product/model/UPC search, approved-retailer filtering, Total Known Cost (item + shipping + fees), price alerts, and labeled sponsored results.
A decision from the work
The problem
Price comparison without fees misleads shoppers.
The decision
We made Total Known Cost the primary ranking and display metric.
Why
Purchase decisions depend on landed cost, not list price alone.
Result
Shoppers see item + shipping + fees before choosing an offer.
Outcome
A consumer commerce product focused on transparent multi-retailer discovery.
