Could you build this?
Partial A price tracking UI with alert notifications is straightforward, but maintaining scrapers that evade sophisticated anti-bot systems (Cloudflare, Akamai) on Amazon and AliExpress at scale is notoriously difficult.
What it would actually take: Requires a scalable scraping pipeline using distributed proxy networks (residential/mobile IPs), headless browser clusters (Playwright/Puppeteer with stealth plugins), and fingerprint rotation to bypass advanced WAFs. An engineering team must continuously monitor and update DOM extractors across thousands of retailers as store layouts change.
