VoucherVortex - Affiliate Deals, Coupons & Price Comparison Platform

Live production platform aggregating coupons, deals, and products from Romanian affiliate networks into a single searchable catalog - architected, built, and shipped solo from empty repo to real users.

VoucherVortex is a full-stack e-commerce discovery platform for the Romanian market. It pulls live product and voucher feeds from multiple affiliate networks, uses AI to figure out when the same product is being sold by different stores, and merges those into one comparable listing -while a self-built CMS admin lets non-technical staff run the entire catalog without touching code.

Multi-Network Affiliate Aggregation - Built a feed-ingestion pipeline that normalizes inconsistent data from several affiliate networks and direct brand partnerships into a single schema, with automated syncing and safeguards so stale or expired offers never reach a user.

AI-Powered Product Matching & Enrichment - Built a system that automatically detects when the same product is listed by different stores under different titles and photos, and merges those into one comparable listing - so shoppers see real price comparisons instead of duplicate noise. AI also handles category tagging, attribute extraction, and Romanian product descriptions at catalog scale, with cost tracking to keep it sustainable.

Real-Time Search & Discovery - Meilisearch powers full-text, faceted search across the catalog - products, deals, coupons, stores, brands, categories - with infinite scroll and sub-second results, kept continuously in sync with the database.

Customer Accounts & Engagement - End users sign up via email or Google, save favorites, and subscribe to price-drop and availability alerts that fire real notifications when conditions are met. A review system with ratings and moderation feeds back into product cards and search ranking.

Headless Admin, Zero-Deploy Onboarding - Every store, feed, category, and promotional campaign can be onboarded from a custom CMS admin panel without touching a line of code, with operational alerts pushed to the team in real time.

Performance as a Feature —-Runs on Next.js 15 with server-first rendering by default, under a continuous Core Web Vitals discipline: bundle-diet passes, responsive image tuning, and caching strategies that pushed mobile Lighthouse scores from the high-60s toward 90+.
