As someone who loves Rotten Tomates to pick movies and shows to watch, I was surprised when I realized there wasn't anything similar for tech.

Knowing nothing about building web applications, I created this from scratch over many months of self-education.

https://RecoRank.com adds new products and reviews every day, so the content is always fresh.

I've personally found this info useful and I hope you do as well!

Also, it's been a fast leap since this project has come together. I've recently teamed up with the guys from https://BuyForLife.com to help other businesses achieve similar results. It's called https://reviewr.ai if anyone's curious.

Way to go! Sounds like a great use of time during lockdown and looks like you had fun doing it. The website looks very clean and enjoyable to navigate and I agree, it’s frustrating finding genuine scoring for tech items, so the use case sounds great.

To truly make it the rotten tomatoes experience, will there be the ‘experts’ score and a separate end user score?

Ya - definitely want to add end user score. Still trying to figure out how to implement accordingly.
Awesome website What’s the stack you used??
Thanks! Stack is Next.js, Algolia, and MongoDB. Scraper is built using Node.js and ScraperAPI.
