KwikKart is an AI-powered connected store platform that modernizes physical grocery shopping by installing smart tablets on existing shopping carts. The platform enhances the in-store experience for customers while delivering real-time store intelligence, seamless self-checkout, personalized in-store retail media, theft prevention, and supply chain analytics - creating a closed-loop ecosystem for retailers, CPG brands, and shoppers. KwikKart's patented computer vision technology passively captures shopper behavior and shelf data as customers roam the aisles, combining the capabilities of smart carts, shelf robots, and fixed cameras into a single hardware-light device. The company monetizes through data analytics subscriptions and a digital retail media platform, with a revenue-share model designed to accelerate retailer adoption.

87% of shopping still happens in physical stores, yet the in-store experience is disconnected, offline, and friction-filled for customers. Grocery retailers operate on ~2% margins, burdened by costly labor, manual operations, limited data, and a lack of digital revenue streams - while CPGs spend $107B annually on digital advertising, but can't reach shoppers in the place where decisions are made: the physical store.
KwikKart’s patented smart tablet installs on existing carts - modernizing the shopping experience for customers while creating the infrastructure for real-time store intelligence, checkout automation, in-store media, and data analytics for the grocery ecosystem. KwikKart turns every trip into a connected data, media, and intelligence event. One device gives grocers real-time store visibility, personalized shopper engagement, seamless checkout, theft prevention, in-store retail media, and first-party analytics for CPG brands and retail platforms.
Live pilots achieved 95% shopper satisfaction, an NPS of 80, and 98.5% theft prevention accuracy across 1,000 controlled events, with computer vision generating 5,000+ data insights per 5 shopping trips. KwikKart has a strategic GTM partnership with SymphonyAI (which has relationships with 30/50 top US grocers and 25/25 top US CPGs) - giving us distribution access to 20,000+ US stores and a path to monetize our media and data at scale. KwikKart is currently preparing paid pilot deployments with two regional grocers and a top-3 national retailer. The company has raised $1.05M to-date - backed by Hunsaker Family Office, Techstars, Alchemist, and Berkeley SkyDeck.
