We're building a site that tells you what to buy: the best model of anything, accurately, by crunching owner ratings. We'd love any feedback:

Congrats to YC S12.
- tylermenezes 15y agoAwesome idea. My guess is the business part is the weak spot, because from a consumer perspective it seems like an easy sell to me.
- bobsil1 15y agoThanks! The monetization should be easier in shopping than many other areas because it's just one step away from purchase. Btw we're doing lots of fun machine learning stuff, let me know if you might be up for interning here in Palo Alto. You can use the feedback link at the bottom of the site.
- tylermenezes 15y agoI should have put a disclaimer that I have no idea how much companies actually make from being affiliates. I was just guessing that was their concern. Thanks, but I actually work at eNotes.com right now and going to be doing a startup with some friends. Always good to know, though :D ML is fun; when I was in high school I worked for a company which made a product recommendation engine called xPatterns and it was a lot of fun.
- bobsil1 15y agoAffiliate links are a thin biz model. When you aggregate a bunch of buyers, you can do much more than small referral fees :) I'll check out xPatterns. Nice, good luck with the startup.
