The solution was developed to help people get the best prices in online shops.

ComparoShop, a digital solution developed by a startup based in Douala, Cameroon, allows users to compare prices of a wide array of items online before making purchases from online stores. The startup, founded by Didier Tagne in 2022, employs artificial intelligence to enhance search results.

The platform, which does not offer a mobile application, can be accessed via a browser. Users are not required to create an account to access the platform’s information. By entering the product name in the search bar, users can view various suggestions. Based on their geographical location, they can find online stores selling the desired item, its prices, and customer reviews of the respective store. This enables users to compare prices, analyze reviews, and make informed decisions.

Purchases are made through the online stores linked to ComparoShop. Users select their preferred offer on ComparoShop and are redirected to an external site to complete the purchase by clicking on the “See offer” button. If the online store only has a social media page instead of a website, ComparoShop notifies the store to contact the user for delivery. Currently, the startup operates only in Cameroon and Algeria.
