Hey devs,
I recently launched Redtry, a side project I’ve been working on to fix something that drives me (and a lot of people) crazy: trying to figure out what to buy online.
Most shopping experiences rely on infinite scrolling, fake reviews, and algorithmic suggestions that don’t actually help. Redtry is an AI-powered assistant that turns product research into a conversation.
What it does:
- Summarizes real reviews from Reddit, YouTube, and ecommerce platforms
- Helps users decide what to buy based on real intent (not just keywords)
- Tracks price drops and filters the noise
- No real sign-up — just type anything to get started
The idea is to reduce decision fatigue, especially for people buying high-value products like laptops, skincare, or gifts.
Still early, but I’d love feedback from anyone who tries it:
- Would you trust this over traditional review sites?
- What would make this genuinely useful or even habit-forming?
- Are there specific features you’d want added?
Happy to answer any questions or share how I built it. Appreciate any thoughts!

That’s seriously impressive! An AI shopping assistant powered by Reddit and YouTube sounds like the perfect combo—real user reviews, honest opinions, and in-depth content all rolled into one. myfairplay24.in
Cool concept. I think you should add price tracking and more features to it. Also i am guessing this is just a prototype as the latency is annoying.
Wow great website! Before bringing it to market, you'll definitely want to polish the frontend and reduce the time spent scraping.
Thanks so much! Totally agree Speed and UI polish are my top priorities right now. Just wanted to get it out there early and iterate with feedback like yours. Appreciate you checking it out!
