The idea behind Salesbot
Missing out on a product is rarely about wanting it less. It is about being too slow. Limited drops sell out in minutes, prices move without warning, and the listing you need is on a shop you were not watching. Salesbot does the watching.
Sold out before you saw it
The hardest products to buy are the ones with a clock on them. A limited console, a graphics card, a pair of sneakers, a Lego set, a collector's item, a single second-hand part. For these, timing matters as much as price. An alert that arrives five minutes late is worth nothing.
Three things make this hard to do by hand. Availability is short-lived: drops and restocks vanish fast. Prices move in ways that are hard to read: a discount is not always a real discount. And the sources are scattered across retailers, marketplaces and classifieds. Checking all of them, all the time, is not something a person can keep up with.
A watcher, not a price-compare
Salesbot is deliberately not another price-comparison site. Those exist, and they do that job well. The value here is different: speed, a wide range of sources, and knowing about availability, not only price.
You add a product by its link. Salesbot then watches it and tells you when something changes: a price drop, a target price you set, or a product coming back in stock. Alerts arrive by email or Telegram. Each watch keeps a price history and a deal score, so a number has context instead of arriving alone.
What it deliberately doesn't do
Salesbot watches and notifies. It does not buy for you, and it does not try to slip past a shop's defences. No auto-buy, no captcha bypass. The decision, and the purchase, stay with you.
That line is not a limitation we apologise for. It is the point. A watcher you can trust is more useful, and more durable, than a bot that acts on its own.
Built for CH and DACH
The focus is Switzerland and the wider DACH region, second-hand listings included, with shop-specific adapters and a generic monitor for everything else. It speaks German, English and French. Plans run from a free tier to a Hunter mode for the people who chase scarce drops, and a business tier with an API for teams that watch products at scale.
The mark
The icon is a radar: two rings, a single sweep, and a bright blip the moment something is found. Signal lime on near-black, closer to a trading terminal than a shop window. It says what the product does. It watches quietly, and it speaks up the moment a product moves.
