Frequently asked
How is Treck different from ChatGPT or Perplexity?
AI chat describes products and can invent a price; Treck saves your options, compares validated prices across your suppliers, ranks the decision, and requests quotes.
A chat answer is a good starting point, but it's ephemeral, it won't track prices, and it can confidently state a seller or price that doesn't exist. Treck does the buying job that comes after the answer — with a saved project, validated cross-supplier prices, a decision matrix and RFQs.
