What is CartLens?
CartLens reads prices from a photo of a shelf tag or a store receipt and checks them against what other shoppers nearby recently paid. It is a consumer app for people who want to know which local store is cheapest for their usual basket.
Prices in CartLens come from receipts that other users scan, rather than from scraped websites or delivery-app listings. You can compare a whole shopping list across nearby stores, put two stores side by side, and look back at past trips to see where you overpaid by store and category.
A chat assistant called CartAssistant answers plain-language questions, suggests cheaper options for items you buy and keeps your shopping list current. The free plan keeps three trips in any rolling 30-day window, while paid plans add unlimited history, cloud storage and the AI assistant features.
