## What is Deal Scanner?

You know the feeling.

You find the perfect truck, mower, tool, couch, or whatever else you've been hunting for — only to see **Pending** or hear, “Sorry, someone is already on their way.”

The best marketplace deals don't last.

**Deal Scanner helps you get there first.**

Set what you're looking for once. Deal Scanner continuously watches Facebook Marketplace, OfferUp, and Craigslist for you — even while the app is closed — and alerts you when matching listings appear.

**Stop refreshing. Start finding.**

TRY EVERYTHING FREE FOR 2 WEEKS

Scan all three marketplaces for two weeks with no card required.

No Facebook account to connect, either.

See whether Deal Scanner actually helps you find what you're hunting before deciding if it's worth paying for.

HOW IT WORKS

Create a search for what you want, choose your location, radius, price range, and marketplaces, then leave it alone.

Deal Scanner keeps watching.

When a matching listing appears, you'll know.

HUNT ACROSS 3 MARKETPLACES AT ONCE

• Facebook Marketplace  
• OfferUp  
• Craigslist

Instead of repeatedly checking three different places, Deal Scanner brings matching finds together in one feed.

KNOW WHEN A DEAL IS ACTUALLY A DEAL

A cheap listing isn't always a good deal.

As your search sees listings, Deal Scanner learns what typical asking prices look like and can identify clear standouts — like a listing that's **46% below typical**.

The more your search sees, the more context you have when something unusually cheap appears.

BE FIRST WHEN IT MATTERS

Good listings can disappear fast.

Deal Scanner shows when it found each listing, so you can immediately see what's fresh.

“Found just now” means Deal Scanner just spotted it.

When something worth chasing appears, one tap takes you to the original listing so you can contact the seller.

AND IT KEEPS WATCHING

Deal Scanner doesn't stop after finding something once.

• Get notified about new matching listings
• Hear about price drops
• See how far away listings are
• Save promising deals
• Dismiss what you don't want
• Track multiple hunts at once
• Review your deal-finding stats

YOUR HUNT. YOUR NOTIFICATIONS.

Want to know immediately? Turn on live alerts.

Don't want your phone going off overnight? Set quiet hours.

Rather check once a day? Turn off live alerts and use a morning digest.

Deal Scanner watches either way.

NO FACEBOOK ACCOUNT NEEDED

You don't need to connect a Facebook account for Deal Scanner to surface Facebook Marketplace listings.

FREE AFTER THE TRIAL — WITH AN IMPORTANT DIFFERENCE

After your two-week trial, you can continue using Deal Scanner for Craigslist and OfferUp for free.

Facebook Marketplace scanning requires a paid plan after the trial.

Paid plans also let you run more searches simultaneously and offer faster Craigslist and OfferUp scanning, depending on the plan. Facebook Marketplace scans at the same shared pace across paid plans.

Plans and current pricing are shown in the app and App Store.

BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY HUNT FOR DEALS

Maybe you're looking for a truck.

Maybe it's a zero-turn mower.

Tools. Furniture. Equipment. Powersports. Appliances. Project parts. Flip inventory.

Whatever you're hunting, the advantage is the same:

**Seeing the right listing before everybody else does.**

Other marketplace monitoring tools are often built and priced around professional resellers.

Deal Scanner was built so regular buyers and deal hunters can have the same kind of advantage without paying reseller-level prices.

**Try all three marketplaces free for two weeks. No card required.**

Set up your first search.

Then stop refreshing.

### 2.0.0 — 2026-08-13

Two weeks of Craigslist, OfferUp and Facebook Marketplace, free. No card required.

The app has been rebuilt: a new look throughout, a walkthrough the first time you open it, and an FAQ inside the app.

You can now share a find as a deal card, and deal scores are more reliable.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-02

Setting up a search is clearer now. Tell us what you're hunting for first, and we'll name the search for you. Watch several things at once by separating them with commas — like "cypress wood, cedar planks".

Also fixed: editing an existing search no longer asks you to re-enter your location.

### 1.0 — 2026-07-29

No release notes.
