PriceWatch vs Honey
Honey is a browser extension that tries coupon codes at checkout. PriceWatch is a price-change monitor that emails you when a product you chose gets cheaper.
What Honey does
Honey installs into your browser and runs at checkout, applying codes it has collected for that store. Its price-history features live inside the extension.

Frequently asked questions
Is Honey a price tracker?
Not primarily. Honey's main function is applying coupon codes at checkout. It has surfaced price-history information inside the extension, but it is not built to email you when a specific product changes price.
Can I use PriceWatch and Honey together?
Yes. They solve different parts of the same problem, and nothing stops you from using both. PriceWatch watches the product pages you care about and emails you when the price changes.
Does PriceWatch need a browser extension?
No. You paste a public product URL into your dashboard and PriceWatch re-checks it on a schedule. Nothing is installed in your browser and no browsing data is collected.
What does PriceWatch cost?
The free plan tracks up to 3 products with email alerts on every price change. Paid plans raise the limit to 25 or 100 tracked links.
