Cooklist builds the infrastructure for agentic grocery commerce. We help retailers deploy AI assistants that do more than chat. Our agents reason over shopper intent, search the catalog, check inventory, apply business rules, and assemble products into cart-ready solutions. Shoppers don’t want a thousand search results. They want dinner. Cooklist turns goals into filled carts. Our platform includes: • On-site AI Shopping Assistants (web + app) • Agentic Search for complex, long-tail grocery intent • Cart-ready product bundles and substitutions • Retailer control plane with business rules and governance • Insights that translate conversations into merchandising signals Cooklist integrates directly into retailer environments using existing APIs and data. The experience is retailer-branded, inventory-aware, and policy-controlled. We specialize in grocery. Culinary logic, dietary strictness, private label prioritization, retail media integration, and substitution systems are first-class features, not afterthoughts. We launch quickly. Recent national grocer deployment: live in 41 days from contract signature. Shoppers save time, build bigger baskets, and keep coming back.
