Smartprix empowers cell phone buyers with information for deciding on product and e-commerce site to shop.
Smartprix.com offers shoppers the ability to view and compare mobile phones and their respective pricing information on different online stores, thereby enabling users to ultimately find the right product from the right store at the best price.
“We really wanted to do something beyond pursuing academics something that would benefit people directly. One of our friends was struggling to get appropriate information which will help him decide the cell phone to buy and where to buy it from. At that point, we came up with the idea of Smartprix.com, says Hitesh Khandelwal, co-founder, Smartprix.com.
Abhinav Choudhary, co-founder, Smartprix.com adds, “We wanted to create a one stop site where people would come for their shopping needs, and we would pamper them with detailed comparisons for getting a smart and cheap buy. Consumers and specifically Indians have the habit of doing extensive comparisons until they get the best price and the best deal and this is the sentiment we wanted to address.”
Both hail from Rajasthan and are 21 year old. They founded Smartprix.com in December 2011.
Hitesh likes video games, movies, music and adventures. While Abhinav enjoys listening to music, reading and watching movies in his free time. For both of them their biggest achievement so far is cracking the IIT JEE exams.
Currently the duo is operating the start up all by themselves and there is not much investment except the basic server cost.
“We divide our work according to our interests. Generally either one of us will do the all of interesting work in a project and we will divide the boring work 50-50. Till now, most of the back-end development is done by me, while most of the front-end development is done by Abhinav, “Hitesh Khandelwal.
Some investors have contacted them and they will take funding when the time is right. Their major competitors are naaptol.com, compareindia.in.com, junglee.com etc.
They will continue building Smartprix.com along with their studies and decide their future course next year.
For those who wish to follow their footsteps Hitesh says, “Make something you would like to use. There are a lot of people who would like the same thing, now you just got to find them.” Whereas Abhinav advises “Just follow your skills and never give up!”
