Exploring a clean, modern SaaS dashboard UI. Focused on simple layouts, smooth interactions, and a better user experience 🚀
i had to like this, it got my attention, very nice build mate.
Still checking competitor prices by hand? I built a price tracker, and a real run caught 3 bugs my tests had missed.
What it does:
Paste a product URL: it scrapes the price, stock and rating.
Every scrape is saved, so you get the full price history, not just today's number.
Each new price is compared with the last one, up or down, in %.
Current, lowest, highest and average price on a dashboard and a REST API.
The real run: 7 products scraped live from a public store built for scraping practice. Then three bugs showed up:
Every live page came back empty. The scraper asked for compressed pages it couldn't decode.
That empty result wiped a saved product's title and price. Now an unreadable page is refused, and your data stays safe.
The price chart never appeared. The page's own security policy blocked the chart library, so the app now serves it itself.
Each fix has a test that fails without it. 99 tests in total.

Which prices do you check by hand every week? Tell me the sites, and I'll tell you how I'd track them.
For the REST API, I'd expose the last successful scrape time alongside the latest attempt's status. Can a caller tell "price unchanged" apart from "refresh failed, showing the previous price"?
If you sell B2B software, you've heard it: "you need to show up in ChatGPT."
And the fix going around is to write more blog posts.
But for a lot of companies, that's not the real problem.
The real problem: ChatGPT can't read their website.
The site looks fine to you.
But some websites only show their words after the page loads in a browser.
ChatGPT doesn't wait for that. It sees an almost empty page.
I found a B2B AI company whose homepage has about 1,500 words in a browser.
Turn JavaScript off, and the page is completely blank.
AI tools get the title and a one-line description. That's it.
It's built with a tool that can do this right. It just isn't set up that way.
And buyers are using it.
In one survey of 1,169 business buyers, nearly 3 in 10 said they now start with AI tools more often than Google.
Here's the fix 👇
#1 - Test it. Open your homepage, right-click, "View page source", and search for your headline. If it's not there, ChatGPT can't see it either.
#2 - If it's missing, rebuild the marketing pages so the words are in the page from the start.
#3 - Get other sites talking about you. Reviews, lists, Reddit, LinkedIn. AI answers lean on them a lot.
Bottom line: more blog posts won't help if ChatGPT can't read your homepage.
We build websites ChatGPT can actually read.
