KwikKart

KwikKart is a smart tablet system that mounts on shopping carts, transforming the in-store grocery experience with AI-powered capabilities. Founded in 2021 and headquartered in Austin, Texas, KwikKart integrates item scanning, an in-cart scale, automated checkout, anti-theft technology, and digital media into a single cart-agnostic device that works with existing cart fleets. The platform serves three stakeholders simultaneously: shoppers enjoy faster, frictionless trips; retailers gain operational analytics, inventory intelligence, and loss prevention tools; and consumer brands unlock in-store digital engagement and advertising opportunities tied directly to shopper attention and intent.

In-store grocery shopping lacks the seamlessness and intelligence of digital shopping — checkout lines are slow, loss prevention is difficult, and retailers have little visibility into real-time shopper behavior in the aisle.

KwikKart installs a smart AI-powered tablet on shopping carts that enables scan-as-you-shop, integrated produce weighing, automated checkout, anti-theft monitoring, and in-aisle digital engagement — all in one device that connects shoppers, stores, and brands.

Backed by Techstars (November 2023 Seed round). Company has approximately 8 employees and is actively developing its platform with new capabilities including revenue opportunity features recently launched.
