Why price per unit matters

A $60 1TB drive costs $0.06/GB. A $120 4TB drive costs $0.03/GB. The “expensive” drive is actually 50% cheaper per gigabyte.

BuyPerUnit does this calculation on every product automatically, so shoppers can instantly see which option delivers the most storage or pages per dollar. The result: an objective ranking based on math, not subjective opinions.

The research behind unit pricing

According to the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO), consumer prices increased 34.5% between 2019 and 2024, with shrinkflation — reduced product sizes at the same price — a major contributor to hidden per-unit cost increases.

Research on price comparison platforms shows that providing consumers with products strictly ranked by unit price increases actual savings by 3% compared to unranked listings. A Baymard Institute study found that 67% of consumers actively use comparison features when shopping for spec-driven tech products, yet 17% of e-commerce sites fail to offer them.
