Ripn is a grocery tracking app that turns receipts into spending data. Take a photo of your receipt and Ripn automatically reads the items, prices, categories, and dates. See where your grocery money goes, keep track of what may expire, and record what you throw away. It helps you understand both how much you spend on groceries and how much of that money ends up wasted.

What to expect from an ideal product

  1. Snap a photo of your grocery receipt and Ripn pulls out every item, price, and purchase date automatically, no manual entry needed.
  2. Since Ripn logs the date you bought each item, you can spot what was purchased weeks ago and is likely sitting forgotten in your fridge.
  3. When you throw something out, record it in Ripn to see exactly how many dollars in groceries you waste per week or month.
  4. Ripn sorts your groceries into categories so you can see if, say, produce is where most of your food waste actually comes from.
  5. Instead of trying to remember when you bought something, you have a receipt-backed log that tells you precisely when each item entered your home.
