How the Zilla hunts.
SlashZilla isn't a blog with affiliate links. It's an intelligence engine — agents that find deals, explain why they exist, try to kill their own work, and publish the survivors with receipts. Here's the whole machine, because trust you can't inspect is just marketing.
Sensors sniff
Every hour, scripts watch demand trends in five countries, price movements across a brand registry, release calendars, and best-seller velocity. Raw signals only — no opinions yet.
The Hypothesizer bets
An agent turns signals into testable bets with search plans and credit budgets. 'Kirby nanoblocks are early-viral in Japan — check US stock' is a bet. It proposes; it never asserts.
Scouts spend credits
Each bet gets executed against EasyParser and SerpApi — price history, offer depth, seller rosters, 90-day averages. Every credit is logged. Waste is a firing offense.
The Detective explains WHY
Any idiot can see a price dropped. Our Deal Detective classifies why: model-year clearance, coupon stack, price war, pricing error. The why becomes the story — and the risk assessment.
The Adversary attacks
Before anything publishes, a dedicated adversary agent tries to tear the story apart: inflated reference price? variant trap? seller unresolved? fad already peaking? About four deals a day flunk the sniff, on average.
Humans get verdicts, not ads
Survivors get a verdict stamp, a decision brief, and disclosed watch-outs. Then the Watchdog rechecks every live deal all day — dead deals get pulled within 40 minutes.
