Why this audience
This audience shops deliberately and is trying to hold a weekly number they cannot see until the till. Groceries are the one recurring cost they can actually control. Knowing the total before leaving the house is the single most useful thing to give somebody already running that discipline.
Before it can launch
- Grocery price data through retailer APIs or a licensed feed; scraping store sites breaches their terms and breaks weekly

Fifty thousand paying users is the ceiling every one of these pages is drawn against, not a forecast. It opens at a thousand, the bottom of the range, so the first figures you see are the modest ones. What the cap buys is comparability: the same range on every app, and the percentage of the audience it takes as the number that moves.
