Dupe

Dupe.com is a free AI-powered visual search engine and product-comparison platform that finds near-identical, lower-priced alternatives ("dupes") to designer and higher-priced products. Users paste any product URL, upload an image, or type a description, and Dupe's visual matching surfaces similar items from thousands of online retailers at up to 90% less — spanning furniture, home decor, fashion, footwear, beauty, and more. The service also offers AI research reports, room/outfit restyling, a Chrome extension, an iOS app, and a $DUPE rewards program, and it earns revenue through affiliate commissions at no extra cost to users. Dupe additionally operates a hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server so AI assistants can search its catalog programmatically. Backed by Kindred Ventures.
