Tim was doing his online shopping last night for his groceries; and noticed that Superstore is now labeling what is prepared in Canada.
A Calgary mother and son have teamed up to create a new app they hope will help Canadians buy products made in Canada.
Self-taught app designers Ryan Checora and Cathy Checora released their AI-powered app called O SCANada on the App Store on Feb. 3 to help shoppers identify products that are, or are not, Canadian-made.
With the free app, shoppers can search for products two ways: either by typing the name into the search bar or by scanning a barcode.
The app will then tell shoppers who makes the product, where it is made and where it is sold.
“AI will essentially get that info from the scanned barcode and give you a result that essentially tells you is this product Canadian, is it manufactured in Canada,” said Ryan.
This is so cool! Check it out!
