streetmerchant is a Node.js application that continuously checks retail websites for product stock availability, with optional add-to-cart support and notifications across many platforms. It includes an optional live web dashboard for managing stores, series, and configuration while running.
Use cases
- notify me when a graphics card is back in stock
- monitor PS5 availability at multiple retailers
- check stock of GPUs 24/7 without refreshing manually
- get alerts when Nintendo Switch 2 or CPUs come in stock
- add hard-to-find items to cart automatically when available
- track inventory across Best Buy, Newegg, Amazon, and Micro Center
When to choose
- you want automated, continuous stock monitoring with multi-platform notifications
- you need a self-hosted bot with a live dashboard and configurable store/series filters
- you want community-maintained store links for GPUs, consoles, and CPUs
When to avoid
- you expect fully automatic purchasing - the bot deliberately does not buy for you
- you need guaranteed uptime in the cloud, since some retailers block datacenter IPs
- you want a zero-setup hosted service rather than running Node.js or Docker yourself
