Groccr Just Got Superpowers: The Chrome Extension That Knows What You're Shopping

Imagine you're scrolling through Amazon, BigBasket, or Flipkart. You see a product you like, but the real question hits you: "Is this the best price?"

Until now, that meant opening a new tab, typing the product name, maybe adding size/brand, and hoping you didn't miss a cheaper listing.

Not anymore.

πŸš€ What It Does

This isn't just a glorified search bar. The extension actively detects product details while you browse and gives you a smart "Compare on Groccr" button right on the page.

Here's what it pulls:

  • Product name (cleaned, no fluff)
  • Brand
  • Pack size (e.g. 500g, 1L, 6 pcs)
  • Quantity + Unit (structured data for better matching)
  • SKU/ID
  • Marketplace name

It then deep-links into Groccr search with all these details pre-filled:

https://groccr.com/search?q=Product+Name
&brand=BrandName
&size=500g
&qty=500
&unit=g
&sku=12345
&marketplace=amazon

So you don't just get similar matches β€” you get exact comparisons.

πŸ›’ Marketplaces We Speak Fluent In

Amazon
BigBasket
Blinkit
Instacart
Flipkart

(Plus a generic parser for any site with structured product data)

Each parser is custom-built with site-specific selectors, so we can pick up the details even if they're tucked away in a dropdown or behind a schema tag.

πŸ’‘ How It Works in Real Life

  1. You're looking at Tata Sampann Turmeric Powder 200g on BigBasket.
  2. The floating Compare on Groccr button appears in the corner.
  3. Click it β€” Groccr opens in a new tab with "Tata Sampann Turmeric Powder", brand=Tata Sampann, qty=200, unit=g already filled in.
  4. You instantly see which store delivers it fastest and cheapest to your pincode.

βš™οΈ Extra Features

  • Right-click any highlighted text β†’ Find on Groccr
  • Omnibox shortcut: type groccr sugar 1kg
  • Keyboard shortcut: Alt+G to search selected text
  • "I'm feeling hungry" mode β€” jumps to curated quick-buy lists

Options page:

  • Change base URL (for dev/testing)
  • Set your pincode (so search results are localized)
  • Toggle floating button
  • Enable/disable individual marketplace parsers

πŸ”’ Privacy & Speed

  • The extension doesn't send anything to Groccr until you click search.
  • All parsing happens locally in your browser.
  • No tracking, no bloat β€” just instant price intelligence.

For now, you can install it in Developer Mode:
