Side by side
What each one charges for, and what each one does
| What to compare | Helecos | Minderest |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Per checkup — a check of one product on one source. You buy volume, not a seat count. | Quoted per catalogue after a demo; the site does not publish a plan table. |
| Different units: their limit counts products, ours counts checks. Which works out cheaper depends on how many products you watch and how often. | ||
| Entry plan | Starter — EUR 25 per month, 3 000 checkups | On request. |
| Prices published | Yes — every tier is listed on the pricing page. | No figure is published for any plan. |
| Free start | 3 000 checks free for 30 days, no card required. | The site offers a demo; it does not state whether a free trial exists. |
| MAP / RRP monitoring | Yes — deviation alerts per SKU and per market. | Monitoring of recommended prices for brands and manufacturers, including deviations from the RRP. |
| Screenshot evidence | Yes — each deviation is stored with seller, URL, price and a timestamped screenshot. | Their public pages do not state whether violations are stored with screenshot evidence. |
| Marketplace monitoring | Yes — 50+ marketplaces, aggregators and Google Shopping. | Marketplace seller tracking, including spotting unauthorised sellers. |
| API | Included in every plan, at no extra charge. | An API for feeding pricing data into a BI tool. |
| Automatic repricing | No — Helecos does not change your prices. It reports and evidences; the pricing decision stays yours. | Reactev, their pricing product, automates prices from demand elasticity and market positioning. |
| If you want the tool itself to move your prices, they cover that and we do not. | ||

The difference that shows up first
RRP is not the argument here — evidence and an open price are
Minderest describe RRP monitoring for brands and manufacturers on their own pages, including deviations from the recommended price and unauthorised sellers on marketplaces. That is the same job we do, the table says yes on both sides, and pretending otherwise would be a comparison you could disprove in a click.
The first real difference is what you can learn unaided. Every Helecos tier and its checkup volume is on the pricing page: you can work out which plan fits a catalogue of 4 000 SKUs checked daily without filling in a form. Their pages publish no figure for any plan, so the same question needs a conversation first.
The second is what a deviation leaves behind. Helecos stores each one with the seller, the URL, the price, the currency and a timestamped screenshot — the thing a distributor conversation actually needs. Their public pages do not state whether violations are kept with screenshot evidence. Their pages are silent on it, which is not the same as saying the product has none; ask them if it matters to you.
The third is a boundary we chose. Reactev, their pricing product, automates prices from demand elasticity and market positioning. Helecos does not do that and will not: it reports and evidences, and the decision to move a price stays with the person accountable for the margin.

Where Minderest is stronger
- They reprice; we do not Reactev automates prices from demand elasticity and market positioning. If you want the tool to decide, that is theirs and not ours.
- A far wider stated market list They state 180+ global markets and monitoring in any country, language or currency. We state Ukraine, the EU and international sources.
- Stock and promotions, not only price Their pages describe catalogue, promotion and stock tracking, including stockouts. Our subject is price and its evidence.
- Longer in the market They have been doing this for longer, with the brand reference base that comes with it.
