We built iofill because grocery prices climbed faster than wages and the tools to fight back stayed stuck in the 90s — paper coupons, store-by-store comparison, fridges full of forgotten food. The average family throws out $1,500 in food a year. We thought software could do better.
What we're building
Four jobs the app does for you, every week, automatically.
Snap a receipt. AI extracts every item, price, and store in three seconds — no typing, no barcodes. Your pantry stays current without you ever opening a spreadsheet.
We monitor 39+ chains and only flag items already in your pantry or shopping pattern. No spam, no irrelevant coupons — just the few sales that matter to you this week.
Smart expiry alerts trigger before things go bad — and we suggest recipes built from what you already have. Cut waste by 40% and put $30–$60 a month back in your budget.
One pantry, one shopping list, real-time across every phone in the family. No more "did you already buy milk?" texts. Everyone sees the same source of truth.
How we work
No "free trial that auto-charges." Free is genuinely free — 20 items, 5 scans a month, real deal matching. You only upgrade when the savings exceed the price. If we can’t beat $3.99 in value, you shouldn’t pay.
Every household gets row-level isolation in the database. We don’t sell your purchase history. We don’t advertise to you based on what’s in your fridge. Export everything any time.
A coupon that expires in another state is useless. We pull deals from the actual stores in your ZIP — Smith’s, Macey’s, Costco, Walmart, the Kroger banner family — and only show what you can actually drive to.
We use AI where it saves you time: receipt OCR, recipe generation from your real pantry, smart expiry prediction. We don’t bolt on a chatbot just to claim "AI-powered." Every model call has to pay for itself.
Why we exist
American households throw out close to a third of the food they buy — roughly $1,500 a year straight into the trash — while grocery prices keep climbing. The deals that could offset it are real, but they're scattered across a dozen store apps no one has time to check.
Every tool out there solves one slice: a coupon clipper here, a $15/month meal-planner there, a barcode pantry app that needs you to scan every can. Nothing connects the three things that actually move your budget — what you already bought, what's on sale this week, and what's about to spoil in the back of the fridge.
So we built iofill to close that loop. AI reads your receipts, your pantry updates itself, deals match across every chain in your area, and recipes come from food you already paid for — one system working while you don't think about it. Early users averaged $127 saved their first month with zero behavior change.

Meet the founder
I'm not a grocery executive — I'm the guy who paid $240 for one trip to Smith's while half my fridge spoiled. I went looking for an app that connected the receipt I'd just paid to next week's deals to the food rotting in my crisper drawer. Nothing did.
So my family built iofill — the tool we wished existed. We shipped it to friends first; they saved an average of $127 the first month without changing a thing.
And it doesn't stop at deals. iofill tracks your whole pantry so food stops rotting in the back of the fridge, and it builds your shopping list from what's actually running low — in about a minute, not an hour.
