Honey

Honey employs a web scraping technique to automatically search for and retrieve available coupon codes from various online retailers. It uses a combination of browser extension APIs to monitor user activity and detect when a user is on a checkout page, triggering the coupon search process. This capability is distinct as it integrates seamlessly with the browsing experience, providing real-time coupon suggestions without requiring user input.

Honey tracks price changes for products by monitoring retailer websites and storing historical pricing data. When a user selects an item, Honey can send alerts when the price drops below a specified threshold. This capability leverages a backend service that aggregates price data and uses notification systems to inform users, making it distinct in its proactive approach to deal-finding.

Honey automatically applies the best available coupon codes at checkout by interacting with the webpage's form fields through the browser extension API. It intelligently selects and inputs coupon codes without user intervention, ensuring a smooth and efficient checkout experience. This capability stands out due to its ability to handle multiple coupon codes and determine the most effective one to use.
