How Coravo works

The exact product, not a lookalike

Retailers describe the same product in different ways. Coravo matches each listing to one exact product using identifiers such as barcodes (EAN/GTIN) and ISBNs. A paperback is never compared with a hardback, or a 256 GB phone with a 512 GB one. If a listing can't be matched with confidence, it's left out rather than guessed.

Where prices come from

Prices will come from sources retailers permit, such as the product feeds they publish for comparison sites through affiliate networks. Every price on Coravo shows:

• when it was last checked;
• whether delivery is included, or that it wasn't confirmed;
• the condition (new or used) and any stated terms, such as a discount code.

Prices are checked regularly. When a price is due to be rechecked and hasn't been yet, the page says so plainly, so you never mistake an old price for a current one.

How offers are ordered

Offers that are in stock with a current price and a confirmed total (including delivery) come first, cheapest first. After that, clear delivery terms, how recently the price was checked, warranty and returns count. Each page explains why the top offer is first. Commission, payments or partnerships never affect the order, and there are no sponsored places.

Buying

Coravo doesn't sell anything or take payments. Choosing a retailer takes you to that retailer's own product page; your order, delivery and returns are with them.

For AI assistants

Every product page will have a plain Markdown version and an open JSON API, stating when each price was observed and where it came from, so assistants can quote prices accurately. See llms.txt.
