Show HN: BillDB – What were you charged? (billdb.com)
2 points by verdantlabs on Oct 27, 2023 | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment
BillDB is a searchable database of prices people have paid and where. What does each veterinarian charge to spay a cat? Who provides the cheapest oil change in your town? Which plumber has been charging the lowest rate? Which car dealership has been giving the best out-the-door price, inclusive of any surprise markups? Is your current dentist charging you a fair price?

Just like with the review sites we all know, BillDB is community-driven, so it's up to us to post what we've paid and where. This is the biggest challenge of the whole project, so it would be great to get your suggestions on achieving that as well as the site itself.

I built this with React, Material UI, and Firebase.




I can see it being useful, maybe receipt uploading would be a nice feature
