GuideCart AI

Shop with your list, read out by AI.

How it works

  • Write or dictate your shopping list.
  • Point the camera at a product or price label and tap Check.
  • GuideCart tells you what it thinks the product is, and asks you to confirm before ticking it off.

Please know

  • The AI can be wrong. It always says how sure it is.
  • It does not guide you around the shop or warn about obstacles. Keep using your cane or guide dog.
  • Photos are sent to an AI service to be read and are not saved by this app.

        Hold the product about 30 cm from the phone, roughly the length of your forearm.

        Hold one product in your hand about 30 cm from the phone, or point at the price label on the front edge of the shelf. Keep still, then tap.

        Which camera?

        Use your phone's camera, or connect smart glasses so your hands stay free.

        Walk mode keeps the camera on and tells you what's around you as you move: people, chairs, tables, bottles, fruit and other common objects. It reads the writing on bottles, packs and books, and says when something is on your list. It uses more battery. Hold the phone upright at chest height, camera facing the shelves.

        Smarter AI (optional)

        Add an Anthropic API key to use Claude Vision everywhere in GuideCart, including walk mode. It recognises almost anything and reads any text. The key is stored only on this phone. Each check costs a fraction of a penny.
