Why this matters

Food is the 3rd largest household category!(behind housing and transportation)

33% savings potential

That's the gap researchers keep finding between stores... not a number Maya promises you:

  • ~19% price difference on identical products across grocery stores
  • 41% price savings in general merchandise, 29% in health and beauty... the aisles nobody price-checks
  • 3% to 28% total savings depending on store format (USDA ERS)
  • More than 33% between the priciest and cheapest retail chain in one city

And with the average American household spending $10,169 a year on food, that's a lot of savings!

Maya closes that gap

Shelf prices near you aren't published online. Maya learns them from members and does the comparing for you. Most shoppers already try... 65% check prices before they go, and only 17% think their store is the cheap one. Here's how Maya's better:

  • Share a receipt. You teach Maya the products your household actually buys... no more shopping lists on the fridge.
  • Add by texting. "add eggs" is the whole message; Maya automatically selects which brand from your shopping history.
  • Maya does the which store math. She splits your list so each thing lands where it costs the least... no spreadsheets.
  • 24/7 Price Optimization. She's always analyzing your list to save a buck. Up until the moment you text "🛒" to retrieve your per store optimized shopping lists.

Skip the gymnastics

You're not imagining it... 63% of shoppers say the deals are worth having but too much work to chase. Say goodbye to:

  • Clipping coupons and chasing the weekly ad
  • App-only discounts, no more apps!
  • "Buy 4 to unlock the price" when you only want one.
  • Hitting a spend threshold to earn a discount
  • Showing up on a specific day for a limited-time sale
  • Driving across town for one item*

* By the way, Maya optimizes local gas prices too. Just text Maya ⛽️

The new way to shop

Stop writing your list.
Maya knows what you buy.

Every time you shop, the store hands you a shopping list for your next restock. They call it a receipt. Maya sees this as you teaching her what's going in your pantry and fridge.

🧾

Feed her receipts

Forward her the receipt the store texts or emails you, download from their app or snap a photo of the printed receipt. That's how you teach Maya what you like.

📈

Every item teaches her

What you bought, how often, how much you paid. Every item teaches Maya what products you purchase and enables you to save when you buy them next time. And if you didn't like it, you're one rating away from saying, "Never again."

😎

"Add beer" gets as easy as "add eggs"

No mystery six-pack you've never tried. No brand your store doesn't even stock. Maya pulls from your regulars, just puts your usual on the list and moves on.

🔁

Swap anything, one tap

Different size, different brand, different thing altogether. Every item on your list is one tap from a better option.

📷

Something new? Type the barcode

Maya's already tracking 3.5 million products and isn't slowing down. Text her the digits under the barcode and it's on the list.

🗺️

Meanwhile she's pricing your next shopping trip

Your one list quietly becomes several... one per store, each holding only the items that are priced best right there.

🚗

Ready before you are

Pulling out of the driveway for three stops? Standing in aisle four wondering what's actually worth grabbing here? The list already knows.

❤️

Your favorites are sacred

We all have favorites that we don't want to swap for a deal on another brand. Not now, not ever. No problem, just tell Maya to lock it and she'll know that's the one you always want.

The more you teach Maya about your household, the harder she hunts. It's all about you and your household... just without the overspending part.

Get started by saying, "Hi" to start saving.

How to Shop the Maya Way

Shop Fresh First, then Optimize

Maya's comprehensive grocery pricing analysis reveals smarter ways to shop. Everyone is already shopping at multiple stores to save a buck, but there is a smarter way. By letting Maya do the per store math, you can shop smarter and save more.

🥬

Fresh first

Maya recommends anchoring your fresh purchases in one store (e.g. the store that has the best prices on fresh right now) but not locking in that store as always being the best. Instead let Maya choose your anchor store based on current prices, and Maya will move all your "equal price" items to that store's shopping list. This sends a strong signal to grocers to keep their fresh prices competitive because they'll get your "equal price" purchases too.

🏷️

Companion shopping

With your fresh items and "equal price" items off your list, the rest of your items are organized for optimal savings. There are often massive price swings on items we don't purchase very often. And because we don't purchase them very often, we don't remember what "good" is and can overpay. Maya sees right through that and can help you save a lot by telling you where the deepest discounts can be found.

In combination, Maya helps you send a message to your local grocer to keep their fresh items prices low in order to earn a bigger portion of your cart spend. And by not throwing overpriced items in your cart that offset your savings, your overall spend on food will drop.

What Maya does

Maya in your pocket for real savings

Maya turns tens of thousands of local prices a week into advocacy for your wallet. She works for you, not the shops you buy from.

🥬

Fresh matters

Produce, meat, dairy, and deli matter most when Maya picks your anchor store. Maya won't let a flashy deal on packaged goods steer your fresh purchases away from the best savings. Fresh is the backbone of the shopping trip; everything else organizes around it.

🏷️

Smart shopping

Smart shopping isn't "buy the cheapest possible." It's more about knowing the prices across product types (e.g. tomato paste) and being able to swap brands or substitute private label or club brands when savings dictate. Maya surfaces those choices side by side so you can choose. Staples, snacks, paper goods, and household basics are where brands earn their keep; Maya won't pressure items or brands you flag as non-negotiable.

🗓️

Meal aware (not impulse shopping)

Picture this: you're shopping to make homemade spaghetti and you're lured into buying a 2lb bag of fresh garlic because it is on sale. The next thing you know your pantry is stocked full of products that expire before you can use them. That's wasteful. Maya enables you to manage recipes as lists so you can buy what's needed for a meal and resist the impulse buys.

Value without the games

Multiple promotions, app-only prices and "buy 4 to unlock the price" burn us out. Maya instead focuses on everyday clarity: fair comparisons, timing that respects you and receipts you can explain to yourself on the walk to the car.

Real shopping

The shopping strategy you already know, made obvious

When store prices line up with what you need to buy (cheese, oil, snacks, paper goods, detergent), Maya surfaces those deals so you put them in your cart. That's good for you and the store, but always within your shopping list, your meal plan, and the brands you love.

What shoppers say

\"I didn't realize how much I was overpaying for olive oil at my usual spot. Maya showed me the store brand at the other chain and I saved without feeling like I was chasing coupons.\"

\"We kept meat and lettuce at the store we trust; coffee and paper towels went where Maya said the math actually worked. Lower total, zero drama with brands we care about.\"

No hoops

Say goodbye to doing store chores just to get a decent price

With Maya, you no longer need to stock up, spend to save, buy more than you need and jump through other hoops to save a buck.

I won't buy a larger quantity than I planned just to capture a better price.

I won't spend a certain amount overall just to get a better price on something I buy regularly.

I won't buy multiple items from the same brand just for the deal.

I won't go to a different store just to get a better price on a regular buy.

I won't use an app to get a digital deal on something I regularly purchase.

I won't visit on a specific day for a limited-time-only sale on a regular item.

I won't clip a coupon to save on something I buy all the time.

I won't join a loyalty program just to get a better price on a staple.

How it works

Three steps and you're in charge.

01

Share your receipts

Text or email Maya the receipts from your local shopping trips. She gets to work immediately... every receipt teaches her what your household buys, how often, and what you paid.

02

You get a list per store

Your receipts teach Maya what you buy and what's already in your pantry. Then she starts lowering your food bill... each item goes on the list for the store that sells it for less.

03

You shop at your favorite local stores

You shop where you always shop, with Maya in your back pocket. She tells you when the price is right... and talks you out of the impulse buys you'd regret later.

Shortcuts

Two taps, and you never opened an app.

Some days you have time to plan. Most days you’re already in the car with two minutes and you just want your list. Nothing to open, no menu to dig through, no five taps to reach the one thing you knew you wanted before you picked up your phone. With Maya you’re always an emoji or two away from exactly that. Shopping should cost you less and it should feel better, and Maya is working on both.
