Basket is a mobile app that lets you add products from anywhere online simply by 'sharing' to Basket. We'll then let you know about price drops. Simple as that! Shared Baskets and web version coming soon.

Hey, congrats on the launch! I love the concept :) Will you add a desktop version in the future? I do most of my shopping on my laptop, and such a browser extension would be invaluable.

@loonysku We just launched the desktop web interface too actually...Chrome extension to super power is coming in the next few weeks too. Awesome to hear you like the concept 🙏

I want to try this app. but it is not available in my country(India).

@mohd_shahzaib Hi Mohd, Basket is only available in the UK just now but we're planning our next territory. How well do you think the concept would be received in India?

A key thing with extension/plug-ins is security. Worth stating something about security of the plugin on your website. Also some clarity on data tracking. Congrats on the launch

@ronankmcgovern thanks Ronan, excellent point. From a security/tracking perspective we're a lot more appealing than the status quo as we're not tracking anyone around the web...rather we're giving consumers and retailers a tool to connect where it's relevant and not otherwise.

@janismjartans That's so good to hear Janis, thanks so much.
Lorenzo Zanotto
Congrats for the launch! It would be great to also have the possibility to setup a web-hook in the app as it's really useful for automations and telegram bots, is there any plan for this?
Lex Deak

@lorenzo_zanotto Hi Lorenzo, neat thinking...did you have a specific use case in mind?
Lorenzo Zanotto
@lexdeak yes, for instance during these black friday days, between colleagues we set up a slack channel with interesting offers. Right now if you want to add a web hook to post to that channel you'd have to write a little html parser for the price. While, with your app, one can leverage the existing user friendly experience, posting results to a developer friendly endpoint

@lorenzo_zanotto gotcha Lorenzo...v cool concept, we'll workshop it 🙏
Desert Man
I just added an item from my shopify store, and reduced the price afterwards. Still there is no notification from Basket.
Lex Deak
Maker
@bbeldagli Hey Desert Man, our scheduler runs multiple times per day, it may take a few hours for the price drop to be registered.
Desert Man
@lexdeak I see, but you'd need to inform customers how frequently they will get notification. Getting price drop alerts is your main USP :)

Hey all, I'm thrilled to share what we've been working on. Basket is a mobile app built in Flutter that let's you save products from any online retailer simply by 'sharing' to Basket. The app then lets you know about price drops for things you're eyeing up. We're launching shared Baskets soon alongside a desktop interface and Chrome extension. There's a whole bunch of cool features on the roadmap. If you'd like to collab or have any cool ideas we'd love to chat. Please note that Basket it only available in the UK just now but soon we'll be rolling out further afield.

All the best for the launch @lexdeak Does it work with Amazon as well and does it have Chrome extension?
Lex Deak

@parekh_tanmay Thanks Tanmay, yes Basket does work with Amazon and funny should should ask...Chrome extension is coming in next in in the next couple of weeks.

Sounds like a great idea for e commerces! Another missing piece of the puzzle

@luis_carlos_moyano_medina 100% we think a chunk of ecommerce is broken and needs attention ;)
