To develop a robust, centralized database that collects, stores, and visualizes real-time pricing data from various online third-party vendors across southern Africa. This data will support a price scouting application by providing users with current prices and product availability at specific store locations. # GigEfx Pricing Intelligence > **Live Demo** | Real-time pricing database tracking 1,247 products across 5 African markets. --- ## The Problem Price scouting across African electronics markets is manual, slow, and inconsistent. Vendors in South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, and Egypt each have different pricing, availability, and update cadences. GigEfx centralizes this into a single intelligence layer. ## What I Built - Web scraper collecting pricing data from third-party vendors across 5 markets - Centralized database storing 1,247+ product records with 24h change tracking - Price trend charts: 30-day GPU pricing with multi-product comparison - Market coverage breakdown: South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Egypt - Live price feed with availability status and change indicators - 50% QC accuracy improvement over manual scouting baseline ## Key Results | Metric | Value | |--------|-------| | Products Tracked | 1,247 | | Markets Covered | 5 | | Daily Price Updates | 1,000+ | | QC Accuracy Improvement | +50% | ## Skills Demonstrated `Python` `Web Scraping` `SQL` `Data Pipeline` `Price Intelligence` `Chart.js` ## How to Run ```bash pip install -r requirements.txt python scraper.py ``` ## About Built by Hilda Posada | MS Organic Chemistry, CSULB | Omdena ML Lead LinkedIn | GitHub | Portfolio
