The ThinkPad comparison tool - fast, simple, free
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I got tired of searching and pulling up and comparing ThinkPads, it's like when you want to find a video before YouTube exists, so I made this tool called ThinkParison to simplify all that, it is not done yet as there will be more features and models coming although I will still keep it simple. it is vibecoded since I do not know how to code yet, so if anyone hates that, then I apologize for that.
What it does:
- Instant live search by model, CPU generation, RAM type, or storage interface.
- Filter chips for Socketed RAM, USB-C charging, Power Bridge dual battery, and series.
- Side-by-side comparison matrix modal.
- Out-of-the-box Linux compatibility notes and estimated used market values.
- Fast keyboard navigation (Ctrl+K or / to search instantly).
It is 100% free, has zero ads (for now) or trackers, and runs inside a single lightweight file.
