Phia
What it is
Phia is a free AI shopping agent for finding products and comparing prices across retailers and resale sites. It searches across 220,000+ sites and can identify lower-priced alternatives, then automatically apply coupon codes at checkout. Shoppers can save finds in collections, receive alerts when prices drop, and earn points on purchases to redeem for gift cards. Comparisons include a network of over 150 resale partners; Phia says those partners authenticate goods and disclose their authentication practices. Purchases take place on partner websites, and Phia directs users there rather than handling transactions. On mobile, its iOS app guides users through adding the extension to Safari. On desktop, the extension is available through the Chrome Web Store. Phia says it does not store users' personal or financial data on its system. The iOS app and Chrome extension are described as free, and support is available at [email protected].
