The Problem: Everyone knows the frustration of wandering around a big grocery store looking for what you need. It wastes time, causes stress, and is especially hard for seniors or anyone in a hurry.

What’s Missing?:
Store apps are hard to use and need downloading. Paper maps are outdated. Nobody has made a simple tool right inside the store that helps you find things instantly—no phone required.

The Solution: AisleFind Go
It’s a friendly kiosk at the store entrance. Just type or speak what you’re looking for (like “oats” or “ketchup”), and it tells you the exact aisle and shelf. You can even scan your whole shopping list to get a step-by-step route. Store staff can easily keep the product locations up to date.

Who It Helps:

• Shoppers: Save time and avoid stress.

• Stores: Happier customers and fewer lost sales.

• Seniors and people who find walking difficult: Shop with more confidence and independence.
  

What does it consist of:

• Hardware: Touchscreen, computer, microphone, barcode scanner, secure enclosure.
  
  

• Software: Simple search app, voice recognition, database, admin portal for store managers.

   

Why It Matters:
I’ve seen how hard shopping can be for my grandparents and how stressful it is when you’re short on time. Everyone deserves a simpler, kinder shopping experience.
