Who it is for
Shoppers who compare options before buying and want to be told when a price moves.
Overview
Penny handles two shopping jobs in one place: finding products and watching what they cost afterward. A request can be typed as a description, or an image can be uploaded to look for similar items.
Options come back in the chat, where questions can narrow them down before settling on one. Once something is chosen, Penny can begin monitoring its price and report later changes.
Example requests run from a gift for a young cousin who likes racecars, to long distance running shoes, to a list of everything currently being tracked.

Image search and ongoing price monitoring come from the same app rather than two separate ones.
Availability
Penny is listed in the ChatGPT apps directory only. Channel3 has no connector under the same domain in the Claude directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them.
ChatGPT apps are built on MCP, and the same server can back a Claude connector, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one.

This is an independent catalogue entry compiled by Node8 from Penny's public marketplace listing as it stood in August 2026. Listing facts come from the marketplaces; the comparisons against the rest of the directory and any live-endpoint measurements are Node8's. Node8 is not affiliated with Channel3, and inclusion here is not an endorsement.
Node8 builds MCP servers end to end: deciding which tools are worth exposing, the authentication and permission model, the review submissions, and the onboarding that gets them used. One server serves ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot.
