Upoma: A Dynamic Online Price Comparison Tool for Bangladeshi E-commerce Websites

The e-commerce industry is rapidly emerging all over the world. E-commerce sites provide the independence to choose and buy things over the internet. However, different websites put different prices on the exact same product, and this leads people to spend extra money on products which could be bought with less. Although there are several e-commerce sites available in Bangladesh, no price comparison tool yet developed. Thus, we have designed and developed a price comparison tool for Bangladeshi websites named `Upoma (Comparison)' which supports comparison even if the titles and prices of products are written English, Bangla, and Transliterated Bangla. We have fetched over 90,53,015 product details from various websites to enrich our result based on the user's query. In order to make our system dynamic and to keep pace with real-time changes occurring on the sites, our database is automatically updated in every 12 hours. Our system displays the result with 93.06% accuracy according to the user's query.
