I shared this with some friends on Slack, and the response was "another price aggregator, but for furniture? Okay..."

When you explained the problem in your HN post description, I got really excited about the product. But, I don't see that same story communicated on your website anywhere. I'm sure you've thought about this, but: tell users what you are doing differently on the website.

Wow, great feedback. It has been difficult to distill the problem in a concise way.

Would you mind if I asked: how might you do this?

How about a little graphic that shows the exact same piece for sale at two different prices, with two different names. Then, the text says something like: "Retailers try to sell the same furniture for different prices just by changing the name. Spoken finds the best price for furniture, no matter what it's called."

Marketing is obviously not my strong suit, but that is what I understand the value of your product to be!

Thank you! We did have something like this on our site for some time. We recently simplified our language. You have pointed out for us that something was lost.

We did make these fun Instagram posts:
