AlaCart™ - saving time & money while reducing climate impact

1
By: Morgan Skarin

    The world’s first independent consumer app for seamless planning and shopping for groceries - both off- and online - that saves time, money and helps reducing the carbon footprint of food.

    AlaCart is able to turn any food recipe into a shopping list. With one click the list is then automatically transformed into a ready-to-buy shopping cart from any online retailer OR sorted in actual item sequence according to any physical store. The user can decide the very last minute which physical store or online retailer to go to and always save a maximum amount of time.

    When shopping online prices and delivery options can be compared among all the available retailers before the order is placed. AlaCart will also provide carbon footprint data for any produce and recipe. This way recipes can be suggested based on, not only family members’ preferences, but also on its impact on climate. Eventually AlaCart will even be able to automate and personalize weekly meal plans with recipes optimized to minimize the risk of food waste.

    With AlaCart the consumer receives a universal, “consumer-first” assistant for all grocery shopping. AlaCart also harmonizes with smart speakers/voice assistants like Google Home and smartwatch apps will also be available for in-store efficiency.
