HobbyFlock niche deal tracker

Tracks AI memberships, vouchers, and relay deals for hobbyist communities

Problem

A user collected hundreds of shops, thousands of products, and dozens of AI relay services just to find a cheaper ChatGPT membership, catch a ZCode token promo, and pick a reliable relay, which is way beyond one person's capacity. Others are hunting for Jio Gemini memberships or the cheapest way onto Claude, and this information is scattered, time-sensitive, and hard to verify.

Solution

A lightweight aggregation and price-comparison site: users subscribe to categories (AI memberships, relays, vouchers), the system tags sources, tracks price and expiry, and supports user submissions plus 'expired/reliable' voting. Price-drop and promo-expiry alerts complete the loop.

Users

Cost-conscious AI tool users, small-team buyers

MVP

Category subscriptions and item lists; price/expiry fields; user submissions and voting; promo expiry or price-drop email alerts; Cloudflare edge deployment for speed

Revenue

Category subscription (2–5/month) + affiliate commissions + paid featured listings

Why now

AI subscription channels and relay services iterate fast, leaving lots of stale and asymmetric info, while existing platforms don't aggregate or verify for this niche.
