Valuetag brings power of visual search to online and retail shopping

Apple (or Steve Jobs) introduced tablet to the world and is known for it intuitive UI design and convenience, but Apple forgot that traditional way of desktop product search doesn’t apply to tablets. This is particularly evident when tablet shoppers have to search for products and prices, the biggest hassle is copying the product name and then pasting in various stores website. No more hopping to multiple sites for best prices. ValueTag visual search scans product image on any website and search 100s of stores for best price to deliver best prices to consumers online and in-store. http://qr.ae/G5tq2

Tablet contributes to significant e-commerce shopping today and is the fastest growing segment worldwide. Apple (or Steve Jobs), who introduced tablet to the world, is known for it intuitive UI design and convenience, but Apple forgot that traditional way of desktop product search doesn’t apply to tablets.

Interestingly, 87% of those same shoppers immediately go look for a cheaper price somewhere else online.

With visual search engine, rather than jotting down products and then going and searching reviews and prices at various websites, the valuetag takes product images, scans multiple websites and finds best deals available online and in-stores. Its not just best prices but also shows similar products. Try out Valuetag Chrome add-on yourself to find out more. For Safari and Firefox plug-ins, download from Valuetag App.

Did you ever go to store and liked the product but were not sure if you can get a better price online? You’re not the first, market research indicates that 50% of shoppers go online to buy the product after checking it in-store. The biggest drawback of online buying is shipping cost and few days of delay (even most efficient Amazon Prime requires 2-day for shipping). Rather than coming back home and realizing that store had the best price, use Valuetag android app to find out best prices in store instantly. Scan the barcode and app will let you know if there is better deal online or at any other retail store. You can even share deals with your friends via email, facebook or tweet @ twitter.
After downloading and installing Valuetag, the "valuetag" icon appears in top side of the product image. Just click on the icon and it will search the image at 100s and 1000s of websites and shows a similar products window, presenting deals and prices of same or similar products from multiple stores.

As an example, if someone is shopping for a new camera atOnline Shopping for Electronics, Apparel, Computers, Books, DVDs & more, Valuetag icon will automatically appear over the camera product image. On clicking the icon, either it confirms that Amazon is the lowest price, or shows if other 100’s of merchants (Wal-Mart, BestBuy, Sears, Target, etc.) have a better deal. If shopper likes the better deal, he can simply clicks that store and a new window will open up taking him directly to that product and merchant where he can buy the product.

ValueTag is a free shopping companion tool that contains no spyware, malware or ads. It stays hidden from view and never appears unless shopper looks for it over the product image. Valuetag add-on or app can be downloaded from www.valuetagapp.com.
