Developing a comprehensive search engine for an industrial machinery company

in ecommerce •  5 years ago 

In 2012, Dan Pinto and Dmitriy Rokhfeld created an aggregator that automatically collected information about used industrial machinery and heavy equipment that was for sale.

The idea of ​​creating the service came to Dan when he received a work assignment to search the Internet for a printing machine. The task turned out to be more difficult than expected. You can’t buy such a machine on eBay, and comparing price lists on a thousand different sites takes a lot of time. So, Dan developed a technology for automatically collecting the information from websites and combining the data into one place.

Wow, I didn't even know about such a service. It sounds like a fantastic idea even in 2021. It would save you a lot of time, so you don't need to check the prices on other platforms or different websites. I think it's incredible that we have such a tool. Just imagine the manager of a great company that has to buy many trucks or different other things. You don't need to contact the stores anymore! That's truly amazing. Add to it another service like https://www.valorexo.com/. It would tell you the actual value of a specific product so you'll be sure you won't pay more.
