How it works

From scattered to sorted in minutes.

01

Upload your history

Snap a photo or import from 3-4 past grocery orders. CartIQ reads what you actually buy — the brands, the quantities, the patterns.

02

Tell us your rules

Lock in baby items and allergens. Flag flexible categories where cheaper alternatives are welcome. Set your weekly budget and preferred stores.

03

Get a smart weekly cart

Every Sunday, your cart is ready. Every item has a reason — on sale, household staple, smart substitute. You approve before anything is ordered.

What's inside

Everything your grocery week needs.

Household Learning

After 3-4 orders, CartIQ knows your brands, your quantities, your kids' favorites, and your deal sensitivity. The cart gets sharper every week.

Multi-Store Deal Scan

Pulls weekly circulars from Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Kroger, Aldi, and more. Finds the real deals relevant to your household — not random discounts.

Budget Protection

Never exceeds your weekly budget unless you explicitly approve the overage. Soft caps, not hard stops — you stay in control.

Hard Lock Items

Define what must never be substituted — baby formula, allergen-prone items, your specific brand of dog food. CartIQ respects it completely.

Explained Recommendations

"You bought this twice last month." "On sale this week — $1.20 off." "Similar to your brand but cheaper." Every item has a clear why.

Order Fulfillment

Connects directly to Instacart, Kroger, and Shipt APIs. Approve your cart and we forward the order — no copy-pasting, no manual list entry.

Why not just use a grocery delivery app?

Because the app doesn't know your family.

What typical apps do

  • Reorder the same milk, bread, eggs every week — even when there's a better deal
  • Suggest random items on sale that have nothing to do with your household
  • Replace your preferred brands with whatever is cheapest
  • No transparency — you don't know why something was recommended
  • No budget guardrails — until checkout you don't know what it costs

What CartIQ does

  • Learns your patterns, then finds the actual best value across your approved stores
  • Matches sale items to your household — not a generic coupon dump
  • Respects your brand locks and hard substitution rules, every single time
  • Explains every recommendation so you can approve or override with confidence
  • Stays within your budget target — soft alerts, not checkout surprises
"The average American family spends $6,000 a year on groceries. Most of them still stand in the aisle wondering what to buy. We're not building a better list app. We're building the memory your household never had."

Your cart is ready. Every Sunday.
