Food is the 3rd largest household category (behind housing & transportation)
10% - 35% savings potential
The average American household could save 10% - 35% on food by buying products at their optimal local price (e.g. buy where the price is lowest on each item).
Maya makes that possible
Maya indexes local prices when members share receipts from their everyday shopping. By creating a national shopping index of local grocery prices, Maya knows the best price for nearly every item in your local stores.
No coupon gymnastics
Maya organizes your shopping list across multiple stores so you can request "the best store overall" or "across 2 stores." That way you can spend less time driving around for a deal here and a deal there. By the way, Maya saves you money on gas too.
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 only buying the items that Maya recommends at each store, 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 analyze your anchor store weekly 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.
Your household buying assistant in your pocket for real savings
Maya turns indexing tens of thousands of price signals a week into advocacy for your wallet. She works for you, not the shops you buy from.
Fresh matters
At the end of the day, produce, meat, dairy and deli matter the most in the anchor store selection. 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 hamburgers 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 not efficient. 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.
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 for your shopping list, your meal plan and the brands you've already said aren't negotiable.
Maya encourages stores to keep their fresh prices low and rewards them with a larger portion of your shopping list on their receipt (but not at the expense of overpriced items).
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."
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.
