User3855tenQ: How often do you update your data base?
How often do you update your data base? In other words, what is sampling rate of the
market places that your software monitors (or, how fresh is the data that your software displays to me?).

Feb 6, 2025A: It varies. We're still experimenting with this. For example, we just added AppSumo as a data source a couple of weeks ago, but realized we need to refresh that at a higher frequency than we currently are as deals expire, new deals release, and pricing data changes at variable intervals. Some people want to write up about expired deals because those deals may come back too!
What about Amazon? Lasso and other roundup plugins check in once a day with the Amazon API to keep pricing *and images* (sometimes Amazon takes away certain images, and still having them on your site could be an issue) up to date because otherwise it could be an issue. Does Roundups do that?
Our database is updated daily. Prices change. We get it.
