Tools of POD Benchmark
	Description		Read-only	Idempotent	Open world
`compare_product`Use this when a seller asks which print-on-demand (POD) supplier costs less for a product, wants a Printify vs Printful product comparison, or needs to compare product prices, shipping costs, delivered totals or estimated delivery times. Compares Printify, Printful, Gelato, Prodigi, Apliiq, Artelo, CustomCat, Fourthwall, Inkthreadable and merchOne wherever the product has supplier offers. Useful for Etsy and Shopify sellers choosing where to fulfill T-shirts, hoodies, mugs and other POD products. Compare one product and configuration for a destination and currency. Search products first; for a specified size or color pass choices or an optionKey from get_product_options. With neither, it uses the product's usual configuration and returns its label. Unknown costs remain null; similar products stay separate; affiliate links never change rankings. Paid plans must be explicitly requested; base is standard pricing. supplier shows one supplier's every product and print provider for the choice. Optional seller context, passed only when the seller already said it and never guessed: yourSupplier (the supplier they use now, so it is pinned first and every other row shows the difference per sale), and sellingPrice in the chosen currency, or targetMargin in percent to get the price to charge, with salesChannel (etsy, shopify, woocommerce, tiktok-shop) and shopLocation (the country their shop is in) to apply approved platform fees. Whenever the seller mentions their supplier, selling price, margin or platform, call this tool again with those fields instead of estimating profit yourself. If a price or margin arrives without salesChannel or shopLocation, the result lists what to ask. Profit is an estimate before tax from approved fee research. Supported destinations: US, GB, DE, AU, CA. Comparison totals and rankings are product + shipping. Supplier-billed duty is separate: an established amount, zero, bounded estimate or unverified amount.
