Price lists are messy.
Costarax makes them comparable.

Suppliers send PDFs, Excel files, photos, different units, inconsistent product names and changing prices. Costarax uses AI to clean, structure and match that data before it reaches the buyer dashboard.

01 · Extract

Reads supplier price lists

AI extracts product names, pack sizes, units, prices, MOQ, delivery areas and update dates from PDF, Excel and other common formats.

02 · Normalize

Standardizes products

Equivalent items such as bangus, milkfish and fresh bangus medium are grouped so buyers can compare the same product across suppliers.

03 · Compare

Ranks comparable prices

The platform converts units and pack sizes where possible, then highlights price differences, best listed prices and stale data.

04 · Review

Keeps a human check

High-impact changes and uncertain matches can be reviewed before publishing, keeping supplier data useful without blindly trusting automation.

AI makes the database scalable. Human review keeps it commercially reliable.

Not open to everyone.
That's the point.

Costarax is a closed platform. Every account is manually verified against a valid BIR/TIN registration. This keeps supplier pricing accurate, relevant and protected.

Common questions.

Who can access Costarax?+
Only commercial businesses with a verified BIR/TIN registration: restaurants, bars, hotels, canteens, food retail shops, caterers and hospitality operators. Every account is manually reviewed before access is granted.
Is it really free for buying businesses?+
Yes, completely free. No credit card required, no commission on orders placed. Suppliers fund the platform through their monthly subscription.
How does a supplier upload their price list?+
Suppliers upload a PDF or Excel price list. Costarax uses AI to extract products, units, prices, MOQ and delivery details, then the catalog can be reviewed before it goes live.
How does Costarax use AI?+
AI helps read messy supplier files, normalize product names, convert comparable units and flag price changes. It is used to make the data searchable and comparable, not to replace the buyer's judgment.
Does Costarax take commission on orders?+
Never. The commercial agreement is always directly between the business and the supplier. Costarax facilitates discovery and price intelligence — we don't insert ourselves into the transaction.
How current are the prices?+
Each supplier updates their price list at their discretion — some weekly, some monthly. Every product listing shows the last update date, and Costarax can flag stale catalogs for review.
How long does account verification take?+
We typically verify new accounts within 24 hours on business days. You will receive an email confirmation with your login credentials as soon as your business is approved.
