Find a cart. Push it around. Read labels. Wait in line. Unload. Wait some more. Wheel out. Go home. Unload.

A trip to the grocery store hasn’t changed much from generation to generation.

Despite the grind, consumers still prefer the physical store, and grocers have taken notice that their shoppers all carry — and use — smartphones. These devices can make the in-store experience more personal, more convenient, and a lot more fun. Sifter's barcode scanning technology adds both excitement and relevance by turning existing mobile apps into powerful grocery product discovery tools.

In an instant, your customers can discover whether a food fits their personally selected filters. From food intolerances to ingredient likes and dislikes, our 1,500+ dietary attributes allow the greatest degree of grocery shopping personalization available today.

Sifter's Scan By Diet feature is also a serious tool for customers who need help shopping for chronic health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and IBS. On-the-spot scanning reduces the time spent reading confusing food labels, making it easier for shoppers to navigate the aisles. Retailers can now capitalize on the Food as Medicine movement by helping their health-minded customers discover a wider variety of products that fit individual dietary preferences.
