What kind of business is this for?
Anyone who buys the same things from the same suppliers on a regular cadence: restaurants, contractors, small distributors, medical supply shops, and salons with product spend.
PriceHeld
Pay the price you agreed to, on every supplier invoice.
Upload the last 90 days of invoices. You see every item that quietly went up, what it cost you in dollars, and any invoice billed twice, with a polite email ready asking the vendor to honor the old price.
Drag in PDFs from any supplier. No accounting login. The first 90-day scan is planned to be free. Early access only. No checkout.
Before and after
Before
The invoices get paid as billed. Somewhere in there a case of gloves went from $38 to $41, the delivery fee crept up, and one invoice came twice. Nobody has time to compare line by line, so the new price becomes the price.
After
Every item from every supplier has a price history. When something goes up, you see it, in dollars, the week it happens. When an invoice number repeats, you see it before you pay twice. And you have the email ready.
How you get there
You use the invoices you already have.
Drag in PDFs from the last 90 days, any supplier. Scanned PDFs work when they are legible.
Every item gets a price history.
Vendor, item, quantity, and unit price are pulled from each line and lined up over time.
You see what went up, in dollars.
Each increase shows the old price, the new price, how often you bought it, and what it cost you over the 90 days.
You never pay the same invoice twice.
Exact repeat invoice numbers from the same vendor are flagged.
You know what to say.
A polite note asking the vendor to honor the prior price is drafted for you to edit and send.
Honest limits
- It reads what is on the invoice. Messy or faint scans can be misread. Every finding links to the invoice and line it came from so you can check.
- Item matching across invoices is exact in this version. If a vendor renames an item, it may show as a new item.
- Short shipments need a packing slip or delivery photo, which is not in the first version.
- It does not pay, dispute, or contact vendors for you. You send the email.
- An increase is not always wrong. Contracts and market prices change. PriceHeld shows the change. You decide.
- Invoices are used to build your price history and findings. They are not sold and not shared with suppliers. Delete an upload any time once accounts exist.

Questions
Which suppliers work?
Any supplier that sends a PDF invoice with item lines and unit prices.
How much history do I need?
90 days is the scan the first version is built around. More history is better when it is available.
What if a vendor raised prices legitimately?
Then you know when it happened and can decide whether to shop around. The email asks politely. You choose whether to send it.
