Don't overpay again.

Point your camera at a product, a barcode, or the thing itself. Priced estimates what it's worth, pulls in what it sells for elsewhere, and tells you whether the price on the tag is fair — before you've paid it.

How it works

Thirty seconds in the aisle, instead of a regret at home

Nothing to type. Nothing to search. The camera does the identifying.

  1. 1

    Scan it

    Product, barcode or the bare item — frame it and shoot. Works on a shop shelf, an online listing on another screen, or the thing on a car-boot table.

  2. 2

    See the numbers

    An AI estimate of what it's worth, alongside what the same or equivalent item is going for elsewhere. The comparison, not the guess, is the useful bit.

  3. 3

    Get a verdict

    Fair, high, or a bargain — with the gap in plain numbers. Buy it, haggle, or walk. Either way you're deciding with the information, not after it.

What it does

One question, answered properly

Every shopping app wants to sell you something. Priced only wants to tell you whether the thing in front of you is worth what they're asking.

The point

Is this a good deal?

That's the whole app. Not a marketplace, not a coupon feed, not a wishlist. You show it a thing and a price; it shows you whether that price holds up against what the market actually charges. It's the check you'd do on your laptop at home, done in the aisle before you've spent the money.

Value estimate

What it's worth, in a number

AI identifies the item and estimates its value. On well-catalogued products the range is tight; on odd or rare things it's honest about being wider.

Compare

What it sells for elsewhere

Comparison prices for the same or equivalent item, so the tag has something to be measured against. This is where "it's on sale" gets tested.

Barcode

Sealed box, straight answer

Packaged goods with a barcode identify exactly, which makes the comparison exact too. The fastest, most reliable scan in the app.

Second-hand

For the flea market and the marketplace listing

No packaging, no barcode, just the item. Priced still identifies it and gives you a range, which is exactly when a range is worth the most — nobody's printed a fair price on a used lamp.

Everywhere you buy

Online, in-store, or off a stranger

The scan doesn't care where you're standing. Shelf in a shop, listing on a laptop screen, or an item on a table — it's the same three steps and the same verdict.

  • Electronics
  • Fashion
  • Beauty
  • Groceries
  • Home goods
  • and more

An estimate, and honest about it

Priced is built from what the camera can identify and what comparable items are listed for at the time. That's a strong read on common products and a wider one on unusual ones, and the app tells you which you're looking at.

Treat the number as a well-informed second opinion, not a guarantee. If you're about to spend serious money on something rare, the estimate is where your research starts, not where it ends.

Questions

Frequently asked

Compare the tag against what the same item, or its closest equivalents, sells for elsewhere right now. That is tedious to do by hand in a shop aisle, which is the whole reason Priced exists: scan the product or its barcode, and it estimates the value and pulls in comparison prices so the answer is in front of you before you reach the till.

A product itself, its barcode, or a loose item with no packaging at all. It covers electronics, fashion, beauty, groceries, home goods and more. The less identifiable the item, the wider the estimate — a sealed box with a barcode is a tighter read than a second-hand lamp.

Yes. That is the main use. Scan the shelf item, see what it goes for elsewhere and whether the in-store price is fair, and decide on the spot. It works the same for online listings and second-hand purchases.

It is an estimate, and it is honest about that. It is built from what the AI can identify and what comparable items are listed for, so it is strongest on common, well-catalogued products and weakest on rare or unusual ones. Treat it as a well-informed second opinion, not a guarantee.

It is free to download and free to start. Heavier use is covered by an optional subscription, shown in full inside the app before you commit to anything.

They are sent over an encrypted connection, used to identify the item and produce the estimate, and are not sold, published or used to train public models. Detail is in the privacy policy.

Not yet. Priced is iOS only for now, and the Google Play badge on this page is a marker rather than a link.
