About Rate Ranger

A free hotel price monitoring tool, built because hotel prices keep changing after you book — and you should know when they drop.

I booked a hotel in Tokyo months before the trip. I like to plan ahead. A while later I checked the price on a whim, and the same room, same dates, was over $150 cheaper. I'd just been... overpaying for no reason.

So I wrote a script that checks hotel prices after you book. Mostly to stop that happening to me again. It saved me a couple hundred dollars on that one Tokyo trip. I kept using it, and at this point it's saved me thousands. I figured other people probably run into the same thing, so I made it free and called it Rate Ranger.
