ShopMate is live on iPhone and Android and developed by JV Technologies LLC.
Tier 1 — Available Today
Shipped production capabilities, clearly separated from research.
ShopMate's public product claims are limited to features available in the live iPhone and Android apps and supporting website surfaces.
On-device capture flows
Receipt OCR on iOS and barcode detection on Android use platform-specific on-device processing flows.
Deterministic parsing
Deterministic line-item parsing for receipt-derived grocery records.
Review before saving
User review and validation before saving receipt-derived items.
Data minimization
Privacy-first data minimization workflow for receipt scanning and selected records.
Bilingual positioning
English and Spanish website and app positioning for bilingual households.
Tier 2 — NSF-Aligned R&D Roadmap
Research roadmap only, not shipped production features.
These items describe responsible research directions for improving local receipt understanding and validation over time.
- Core ML / Core AI exploration for local ML optimization.
- Receipt structure understanding.
- Layout classification.
- OCR confidence scoring.
- Item normalization heuristics.
- Budget-aware local cart optimization.
- Apple Evaluations framework as a future validation harness for parsing accuracy and cross-device reliability.
Tier 3 — Future WWDC26 Candidates
Future exploration only, contingent on platform fit and privacy review.
These candidates are framed as future Apple platform exploration and should not be read as current production functionality.
- Apple Foundation Models framework for advanced grocery item normalization.
- Multimodal prompts combining receipt images and OCR text.
- Vision OCR/barcode tool access inside local model workflows.
- App Intents for future Siri / Apple Intelligence actions.
- Private Cloud Compute only as a contingent future option if local device processing is insufficient.
Production capabilities
Capabilities in production
ShopMate is live on iPhone and Android with platform-specific grocery capture flows, user-reviewed records, bilingual support, privacy-first account flows, and App Store plus Google Play distribution. Demo media will be added after final production videos are approved.
Receipt scanning
Capture grocery information through platform-specific on-device flows: receipt OCR on iOS and barcode detection on Android.

Privacy Architecture
Receipt scanning is designed around review and data minimization.
Receipt images captured by camera or selected from Photos are processed on device for OCR and are not uploaded by the receipt OCR flow.
Optional product, store, and price-entry photos are user-initiated. ShopMate may use de-identified, aggregated pricing data for broader market insights.
