For retailers, platforms, and authorized data providers

A responsible path from public price data to an informed shopper.

DropSignal is seeking official access to public product, price, promotion, and inventory data for an ad-free, subscription-supported mobile price-intelligence service.

What we are building

Useful alerts without distorting the retailer relationship.

DropSignal is designed to identify unusually strong retailer-direct public offers, compare them with relevant price context, independently recheck them, and match qualified signals to a shopper’s saved preferences.

The shopper always completes product review and any purchase directly with the retailer. Retailers retain control of product information, pricing, eligibility, inventory, order acceptance, cancellation, shipping, returns, and fulfillment.

01

Official access first

We prefer approved APIs, feeds, and merchant or platform partnerships. Public reachability alone is not treated as permission.

02

Public, retailer-direct offers

Our launch scope excludes third-party marketplace sellers and personalized, session-specific, account-specific, or credit-card-specific prices.

03

Provider-specific controls

Each source receives explicit rate, caching, retention, attribution, deletion, freshness, and incident-response controls before activation.

04

A clean shopper handoff

View deal opens the retailer’s canonical product or store page without affiliate parameters. DropSignal does not automate checkout or place orders.

Intended data use

Purpose-limited by design.

Provider data is intended only to identify, verify, display, and revalidate relevant public retail signals for DropSignal users.

CatalogProduct identity, variant, image, condition, seller, and canonical destination
PriceCurrent public price, public reference price, promotions, and prior observations where retention is permitted
AvailabilityNationwide shipping and approved local-store inventory or fulfillment context
AnalysisAnomaly scoring, price-history context, independent verification, and alert revalidation
PresentationClear attribution, freshness, membership conditions, and retailer-controlled fulfillment disclosure
