Grocery Price Tracking
FuelKit keeps a running price history for grocery staples across retailers, so "where is chicken breast cheapest this week?" has a real answer based on data, not memory.
Price tracking is a connected-AI feature: the history builds automatically in the background, and you explore it by asking a connected assistant — there's no price screen in the app itself.
Where the prices come from
- A weekly automated sweep records prices for a watched list of staples across the retailers the household shops (Instacart-listed stores and Amazon).
- Kroger lookups — when you (or your assistant) search Kroger products, any priced results are recorded into the same history. Set your home store once ("find Kroger stores near 30301", then "use that one") so prices reflect your actual store.
Every record keeps the retailer, product, price, promo price, size, and date, so unit prices can be compared fairly across brands and pack sizes.
Ask about prices
With Claude connected, ask things like:
- "Where is 93/7 ground beef cheapest right now?"
- "Compare egg prices over the last 60 days."
- "Did anything on my staples list drop this week?"
- "Search Kroger for greek yogurt and show unit prices."
Answers summarize the latest price plus the min/max/average per retailer over the window you ask about.
Good to know
- History accumulates on its own — you never log prices by hand.
- Watched staples are curated per household; ask your assistant what's currently tracked.
- Price data is shared reference data, not personal data — it carries no connection to what you eat.
