1 Million Cups Sacramento with CartPathAI and Move To City

You’re invited to 1 Million Cups Sacramento! Every Wednesday morning, one or two entrepreneurs present their early-stage businesses in 6 minute presentations that are followed by questions, feedback and advice from an audience of their peers. Join us on Zoom every Wednesday. Doors open at 8:45 a.m. and the program starts promptly at 9 a.m.

PRESENTERS

CartPathAI started with a simple question: why is grocery shopping still so inefficient?
Most people pick a store based on habit or assumption, but the “cheapest store” often isn’t actually the best option once you factor in time, fuel, and what’s in stock.
We’re building an AI-powered platform that calculates the “True Trip Cost” and helps users decide where to shop based on their full situation—not just price.
Right now we’re focused on validating the problem and understanding how people make these decisions today.

MoveToCity.com aims to provide useful information to tourists, digital nomads, investors, and retirees as they move across the country or abroad. MoveToCity has a database of selected cities that grows daily, often with a user typing a city in the search box and adding a new city to our database. Later the pending record will be filled with data on rent, safety, internet speed, geography, climate, and an image. Some cities have detailed cost-of-living data from Zyla Labs, but not in the United States. The US rent data comes from cross-referencing city geography with the HUD API to geta fair market rent value. Other API services provide the time zone running clock, current weather, and a climate characterization for each city. Each city has a link to a Wikivoyage travel guide or at least a general Wikipedia page. YouTube videos about the city's cost-of-living, walking tours to get the vibe, and safety news is presented from a convenient link. Monetization will include medical, legal, moving, and travel-related products.
