Online Product Comparison Tool Development for Motoquotes

Motoquotes was the UK's first tyre & MOT product comparison site, comparing the motor insurance market.

The scope of the project included online product comparison tool for drivers, offering best deals for new tyres and MOT tests. To complete this project, the OOC team had to come up with a solution to gather data from multiple data sources. While some retailers provided their APIs, the challenge was to obtain current data from those who didn’t.
Another aspect of developing this product comparison tool included scalability. With the website’s growth, it should allow motoquotes’ team to add new retailers and offers progressively.

The team had successfully overcome the obstacles, delivering a project meeting client’s business goals. As a result, the API that has been delivered was able to provide data through a variety of queries, gathering the data from third-party websites.

The motoquote’s users were able to search by tyre specifications, license plate numbers, or car model. Additionally, they could have sort results by price and add additional filters, including distance from a user based on provided postcode.
