We’re very excited about the beta launch of Gear Burger and The Menu. Gear Burger is our technology platform that will keep you updated about deals that our system sees on the web. The Menu is the voice of Gear Burger. Here we’ll keep you in the loop about changes to Gear Burger technology and keep you informed about gear deals going down that Gear Burger might not be able to see. This first version of Gear Burger is processing deals from six deal-at-a-time sites: Steep and Cheap, Brociety, Whiskey Militia, Chainlove, Bonktown, and Tramdock. Steep and Cheap has products across all gear genres, Brociety is focused on snowboarding, Whiskey Militia is all surf and skate, Tramdock covers skiing, and Bonktown and Chainlove focus on cycling.
If you’re at all familiar with these sites, you know just how many deals come up on them every day and how fast the good ones are gone. Across these six sites alone there are hundreds of deals every day. Our platform catches new deals as soon as they’re live and alerts you instantaneously. The system is based on keywords so you have complete control over how many alerts you get. Use broad terms to get more alerts (e.g. “snowboard”, “ski”, etc.) and more narrow keywords for more precise results (e.g. “pontoon”, “camelbak”, etc.).
Also, please note that Gear Burger and The Menu are very much a beta versions. This means that there will certainly be hiccups along the way and we apologize in advance for any inconvience they may cause you. We hope you’ll stick with us through thick and thin and you can be sure that at the end of the day, we”re trying to help get you great gear deals, plain and simple.
Your feedback is going to be incredibly valuable for us to hear. It will shape the direction we go with future development.
