Why use Birdi
At Birdi, our name isn't just a catchy word—it's inspired by the idea of having a bird’s-eye view of retail pricing trends. Picture soaring above the clutter and confusion of sales tactics, hidden fees, and fluctuating prices, and instead clearly seeing exactly where and when you'll get the best deal. That's Birdi's promise to you.
Our mission is simple yet powerful: to provide you with real-time insights into product pricing, beginning with groceries and cosmetics. Here’s how we do it:
Daily Price Aggregation: We continuously collect and update product prices from major Canadian retailers, ensuring you always have accurate and current information.
Transparency & Trust: Birdi identifies and flags price discrepancies, like misleading sales where the advertised savings aren't genuine. No more guessing—just real savings.
Insightful Trend Tracking: By tracking price trends over time—including sales, membership discounts, and sudden price changes—we empower you to shop smarter, not harder.
User-Friendly Platform: A simple an intuitive app you can easily compare prices across different stores, scan products for instant price checks, and make informed purchasing decisions that put savings back in your pocket.
Advocacy and Fairness: Beyond just helping you save money, we provide insights to businesses and regulatory bodies, highlighting pricing trends and advocating against unfair market practices.
We’re growing Birdi hand-in-hand with our community, building features you truly care about. Your feedback shapes our direction, guiding us as we slowly and thoughtfully add new capabilities. Currently, you can:

Additionally, Birdi helps you weigh savings against convenience. Choose the distance you're willing to travel—be it walking, driving, or using public transport—to secure the best prices, especially for big-ticket items.
A quick word on our business model: inspired by platforms like Yuka, we aim to balance sustainable growth with a community-first approach. We’re exploring premium features (like product alerts) and considering advertising options to support ongoing development and infrastructure. Our small, dedicated team has one clear goal—to save you up to 30% monthly on your grocery bills. Achieving this requires significant infrastructure, careful planning, and ongoing dedication—but it’s a goal we passionately strive for every day.
