AI product readBrowser extension that proactively notifies users about available discounts, promotional codes, and cashback offers from their Vip District employee benefits/discount club when they visit partner merchant websites
Users miss out on discounts and promotions available through their employer's benefits portal because they don't remember to check it while shopping online. The extension solves this by automatically detecting when a user visits a merchant site with available offers and alerting them in real-time.
1. User installs the extension. 2. User navigates to their Vip District benefits portal and logs in. 3. The content script detects the portal meta tag and fetches a session token. 4. Service worker uses the token to download merchant/offer data from the Vip District API. 5. As the user browses the web, the content script checks if the current site matches a merchant in the database. 6. If a match is found, an in-page popup notifies the user about available discounts/offers. 7. The badge icon shows the number of available offers. 8. User clicks to view and redeem offers on the Vip District portal.

- Target users
- Members of Vip District employee benefits/discount clubs (provided through employers) / Online shoppers who want to be alerted about available employer-sponsored discounts
- Cannot verify whether the destination service (Vip District portal) itself has paid tiers for employers/clubs - this is a B2B platform detail outside the extension's scope
- The extension uses '<all_urls>' content script injection which is broad but necessary for its merchant-detection functionality
- Cannot confirm how many merchant domains are in the actual production dataset
MonetizationNo paid features detected
No evidence of paid features, premium tiers, subscriptions, billing, or payment processing in the extension source code. Searches for 'premium', 'subscription', 'upgrade', 'billing', 'payment', 'stripe' returned zero results. The extension itself is a free notification companion for the Vip District benefits platform. While Vip District is a B2B platform (employers provide employee benefits clubs to their staff), the extension does not gate any functionality behind a paywall or implement any payment flow.

- Reason
- The extension cannot function without the user being logged into their Vip District benefits portal. The content script detects login status via a meta tag (genio-extension) on the portal page, fetches a session token from 'json/genio-token.action', and passes it to the service worker which uses it to retrieve merchant/offer data from the Vip District API. Without login, the extension remains uninitialized and shows 'Savings Genie out of service' / 'Switch on your lamp by logging to your discounts club.' The store description also states: 'activate it by logging into your benefits portal to get it synchronised.' Additionally, the user must belong to a Vip District club that has the feature active.
