Find couches that fit my doorway and watch them for price drops

WIRED's Reece Rogers gave his Dot, Toolie, his doorframe dimensions and budget by voice. Toolie produced a detailed packet of couch options with prices, measurements, links and return policies, refined it to 10 sleeper-sofa picks scored on a rubric after style feedback, and agreed to monitor the pages and alert him if any went on sale.

How it works

  1. Take doorframe dimensions and budget by voice call
  2. Research couches that clear the doorway
  3. Send a packet of four options with prices, measurements, links and return policies
  4. Refine to 10 sleeper options scored on a rubric after style feedback
  5. Monitor the saved pages for price drops

Why it’s worth knowing

It filtered furniture by a physical constraint, entry clearance, and kept watching the picks for sales.
