AppSwarm Launches SmartShop AI App to Combat Rising Grocery Costs with Real-Time Price Comparisons

AppSwarm, Corp. (OTC:SWRM) announced the release of SmartShop, a new mobile application that leverages artificial intelligence to help users compare grocery prices in real time across multiple nearby stores. The app, now available for free on the Apple App Store, aims to address the growing burden of rising grocery costs by providing instant price comparisons for entire shopping lists.

SmartShop allows users to create shopping lists and instantly see which stores offer the lowest total cost. The app uses location-based results to show deals at nearby retailers, provides detailed price breakdowns per item, and offers smart insights such as “Save $5 at another store” or “This store is cheapest for most items.” A map view helps users navigate to the best option. The app is free to download with optional in-app purchases.

“SmartShop was built to solve a real everyday problem - rising grocery costs and the frustration of not knowing where to shop for the best deals,” said Christopher Bailey, CEO of AppSwarm. “By putting real-time price comparisons right in users’ pockets, we’re helping families save time and money on every shopping trip.”

The launch of SmartShop adds to AppSwarm’s growing portfolio of AI-driven applications released over the past two years. In 2025, the company launched AskOptima, an AI-powered conversational search engine; a zombie shooter game; BARAI (AI Cocktail Maker), an AI mixology app; Travel Safe | Guide; and Health Note | CALMI. In 2026, AppSwarm released AniPet (AI-Powered Animal Identification) on iOS and Android. The company emphasizes a cross-platform strategy, with several apps now available on both Apple and Google Play stores.

The release of SmartShop comes as consumers face persistent inflation in food prices. According to recent data, grocery costs have risen significantly over the past few years, making price comparison tools increasingly valuable. By aggregating prices from local stores, SmartShop aims to simplify the decision-making process for budget-conscious shoppers.

AppSwarm, headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma, specializes in accelerated development and publishing of mobile applications. The company partners with other firms in technology development and business management. While the press release highlights momentum from past releases, the focus remains on SmartShop’s potential to impact everyday grocery shopping. The app is available for download at the Apple App Store.

The company notes that forward-looking statements in the release are subject to risks including competitive products, product demand, and market acceptance. For more information, visit www.app-swarm.com.
