About PriceWise
Why We Built This
Have you ever wondered if you overpaid for a service? Whether that plumber's invoice was fair, or if your dental bill was in line with what others pay?
Pricing for services is often opaque. Unlike retail products where you can easily compare prices online, service pricing varies wildly and there's no easy way to know if you're getting a fair deal.
PriceWise exists to change that. By collecting anonymous, real-world pricing data, we create benchmarks that help everyone make more informed decisions.
Who It's For
- Homeowners and renters who want to know if a repair quote is fair
- Small business owners who need to benchmark service costs
- Anyone comparing quotes who wants real data, not guesses
- Anyone who just paid and wants to see if they got a good deal
What This Is Not
PriceWise is intentionally focused. We are not:
- A review site — We don't collect reviews or ratings of specific vendors
- A marketplace — We don't connect you with service providers
- A vendor directory — We don't list or rate specific businesses
- An advertising platform — We don't show ads or sponsored content
Our focus is purely on pricing data and benchmarking insights. This keeps the platform neutral and trustworthy.
Our Approach
We believe in:
- Privacy first: No personal information is ever collected or stored
- Data integrity: Only aggregated statistics are displayed, never individual transactions
- Transparency: Our methodology is documented and open
- Neutrality: We don't favor any vendors or categories
The Value of the Dataset
The true value of PriceWise lies in the dataset we're building together. Every anonymous submission helps:
- Create more accurate benchmarks for your area
- Identify pricing trends and patterns
- Help others make informed decisions
- Bring transparency to service pricing
By submitting your prices, you're contributing to a resource that benefits everyone.
