Digital Folio for Consumers
Our consumer applications immediately detect product changes as consumers shop. We utilize the 'power of the crowd' to capture real-time product and retailer volatilities including but not limited to: pricing (including cart price), detailed availability (in-stock, out-of-stock, 'low' and 'slow' stock levels, remaining units, and shipping interval data), promotion and flash sale detection, view count, and wish list purchase intent. Moreover, Digital Folio algorithms normalize, map, and maintain a universal item master across retailers and categories for meaningful analysis.
Save Time and Money
Make More Informed Decisions
Digital Folio is a collection of shopping applications for all devices that allow you to find, assess, and purchase goods. In its first iteration, Digital Folio focuses primarily on electronics, appliances, toys, and on big retail names (lists of categories and retailers can be found here), but you can use Digital Folio on any site with the same or more functionality as on current universal wish lists such as Amazon Universal Wish List.
With Digital Folio, your list is intelligent, with product prices and availability automatically updated so you're alerted as soon as such details change. You can also share lists with friends and shop together in real time. It's the only tool that empowers shoppers to compare entire product listings on the fly. And there are no stale product prices or side trips required to a web site just to see your list. Digital Folio helps you make informed product decisions, saving you time as well as money.
An iPod for Shopping
No More Side Trips
Digital Folio does for shopping what the iPod did for music. Consumers no longer need to spend hours scouring the web to compare prices or update shopping lists at various retailers. Digital Folio brings price comparisons, deals, and shared shopping lists to you automatically, allowing you to take your shopping with you, everywhere you go.
Powered by the Crowd
Just Plain Correct Prices
In our experience current comparison shopping sites represent yet another tedious side trip to an ad-driven page with stale prices on only those products retailers pay to list. Digital Folio, on the other hand, provides unfiltered product selections with real-time pricing powered by actual shoppers - without the need to shift through a sea of irrelevant search results.
Digital Folio has a proprietary, crowd-sourced price/product accuracy architecture that can leverage the power of millions of shoppers across the web to detect price fluctuations for each other. Responding to retail price volatility has become a mission-critical retail strategy as some online retailers are changing prices up to seven times a day. Digital Folio has the only applied technology that can keep up.
The Cloud
Powering Real-time Retail
To understand Digital Folio is to understand that everything we do is based in the cloud. Now that may sound hackneyed considering today's overhyped portrayal of the cloud, but the fact is we could not do what we do without the cloud. The computing and storage capacity of cloud-based computing is at the core of our service.
Essentially, the cloud provides us the ability to gather information and receive product updates for any product a user views, in every online store with which we partner. Today, because of the cloud, we can empower users to detect price changes in real time rather than miss opportunities waiting for slow comparison shopping site updates. In the same way the web represented the first innovation that irrevocably changed retail, we believe the cloud - and Digital Folio's use of the cloud - are irrevocably changing online retail.
