Ask it your way

Which store is cheapest for you

It compares what you actually paid at the stores you shop at, and gets clearer as you add receipts.

Which store is cheapest for me?

From what you've paid so far, eggs and milk have cost you less at Store B than at Store A. That's based on a few months of your receipts from those two stores, and it gets clearer as you add more.

Ask in your own words

No menus to learn. Type the question the way you would ask a person.

  • How much did we spend on snacks this year?
  • What do we buy every single week?
  • Are we buying more ready meals than before?
  • What did we spend at Store A in September?
  • Which receipts had the most treats on them?

People stick with Groceries Tracker

The spreadsheet got abandoned. This becomes part of the routine.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This app has genuinely changed the way we manage our grocery spending!

We had been fighting at home for months over how much we were spending on groceries, but since I started using Groceries Tracker and actually tracking the data, everything has completely changed - no more fights! 😂

Now we have a clear picture of where our money is going, can easily track our budget, and most importantly, hold ourselves accountable. Seeing the actual numbers makes such a difference.

It’s simple, useful, and genuinely making a difference for us. Highly recommend it! 👏

AdmilsonApp Store review, rated 5 out of 5

“Fairly new user, but works really well and is very handy for tracking expenses. What is really amazing is I flagged a bug, got an answer through mail a couple minutes later stating they were working on a fix. A couple hours later the fix was up and the bug fixed. Now that's how you do customer support.”

MorganGoogle Play review, rated 5 out of 5

“I tried several apps, and AI actually recommended this one over most. What I love is how easy and addictive it is, when I'm at the grocery store, I just scan and upload, and I don't even take the receipt home anymore. It's become part of my routine. I love business startups, and I think this is a great product.”

KK

“I just started using it about a month ago. It makes it so much easier to track my food expenses, especially when I buy at Costco where you can get more than food. I love that I just have to upload my bill and it automatically puts everything in categories with graphs with little editing. Very impressive!”

Véronique

“The app is a valuable tool for keeping my budget at hand, especially these days with food prices changing so quickly. It has been fun watching the app evolve and the care and responsiveness of you and your team.”

Questions

Where did my grocery money go?

Ask GTAdvisor AI "Where did our grocery money go last month?" It answers from your household's receipts: which categories took the most, what changed since the month before, and which items cost more than last time.

What are smart ways to save money on groceries?

Start by seeing what changed. Ask GTAdvisor AI what to cut, and it points to the categories and items that grew in your own receipts. You choose what to change. It doesn't promise a dollar amount.

Where can I save $100 on groceries?

It's a great question to ask GTAdvisor AI. It looks at your receipts and shows the places worth looking first, like a category that jumped or frequent small trips. How much you save depends on what your household changes.

Which grocery store is cheapest for me?

GTAdvisor AI answers from what you've paid at the stores you've shopped. It needs a few months of receipts from two or more stores, and the answer gets better as you add more. It doesn't use shelf prices. Store comparison is in beta.

How much should a family of 4 spend on groceries per month?

It depends on where you live, what you eat and how you shop. GTAdvisor AI can tell you whether your budget looks right for your household, based on what you actually spend. For a US reference, the USDA moderate-cost food plan for August 2026 is $1,388 a month for a family of four (two adults 19 to 50, children 6 to 8 and 9 to 11). For a Canadian reference, Statistics Canada 2023, adjusted for food inflation to August 2026, is CA$1,523 (about US$1,067) a month for a household of four.

How do I track my grocery spending?

Snap your receipts in Groceries Tracker, or enter them by hand. Every item and price is saved. Then ask GTAdvisor AI anything about it in the question box.

Does GTAdvisor AI see my partner's receipts too?

Yes. GTAdvisor AI uses every member's receipts in your currently selected household, not just yours. So when you ask where the money went, the answer covers the whole house.

Is GTAdvisor AI free?

GTAdvisor AI is part of Premium: $5 a month, or $4.17 a month billed $50 a year. On Free, opening GTAdvisor AI shows an upgrade screen, and you can upgrade any time. Groceries Tracker itself has a free forever plan with 13 receipt uploads for life plus 20 manual entries a month, and no credit card. If you cancel Premium, GTAdvisor AI stops and all your data stays.

How does GTAdvisor AI answer my questions?

GTAdvisor AI uses an AI model to read your question and write the answer from your household's receipts. It doesn't use shelf prices or anyone else's receipts. Like any AI, it can make mistakes, so check anything important against your receipts, which are all in the app.

Is my grocery data private?

Yes. GTAdvisor AI only uses your household's own purchase data. We never sell your data, and there are no ads. Your receipts are seen by you and the people you invite to your group.

What did you spend last month?

Snap a few receipts, then ask.
