Overview
Sweep is a powerful AI & AR shopping app. As a shopper, it’s a pain overpaying and researching for a product. I was always frustrated that there was no single destination or solution that provided all i needed where and while shopping.
I decided to solve this problem and created Sweep app with my team. Sweep helps shoppers save time and money. Using a price history tool, an AR deal finder and personalised feeds, shoppers can find the best price and shops nearby or online.
