01.The pitch

02.How it works
- Paste a product URL
Amazon (any European domain), E.Leclerc, Carrefour or Cdiscount.
https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B0CHX1W1XY - ASIN ↔ EAN identification
The algorithm extracts the product's unique identifier. If the source site only provides an EAN (Leclerc, Carrefour), it is converted into an Amazon ASIN.
- Parallel search across 9 markets
The same product is queried in real time on Amazon FR, DE, UK, IT, ES, NL, SE, PL and BE.
- Sorted, highlighted results
Results ranked by price, best deal highlighted, seller country flag displayed. You click, you buy.

04.Why do prices vary so much?
Four main factors explain the gaps between markets on one and the same product:
- VAT, national rates range from 17% (Luxembourg) to 27% (Hungary), passing through 19% (Germany) or 25% (Sweden).
- Logistics costs, density of the Amazon fleet, warehouse distance, last-mile cost.
- Local commercial strategies, competitive pressure from Otto in Germany, bol.com in the Netherlands, and so on.
- Exchange rates, for the United Kingdom (GBP), Sweden (SEK) and Poland (PLN).
