Check price and stock everywhere at once
To check price and stock today, you either trust a website that’s out of date or ring around. Speaks phones every shop near you at the same time and tells you who has it, for how much, and whether you can collect today.
Coming soon. This is what Speaks is being built to do, and not all of it works yet.
| Shop | Price | In stock | Collect |

| Kempton Trade Depot | R6,920 | Order in | Friday |
You say
“Who’s got a 150 litre geyser near Boksburg today?”
It does
It finds nearby shops, rings them together and asks about price, stock and collection.
You get
A short table sorted by price, so you can make one call or none.
What it handles
- Parts and materials
- Stock checks before you drive out
- Comparing prices across shops
- Asking them to hold it for you
Where it stops
Prices on the phone can change. If it matters, it asks for the quote in writing.
Questions
Isn’t this on the internet already?
Often not, and when it is, it’s often out of date. The person in the shop knows.
How long does it take?
A few minutes, because it can make the calls at the same time.
Can it reserve the item?
Yes, if you tell it to and the shop allows it.
