Companies > MyWorld, Inc.

MyWorld™ Inc. is the company organization behind ShoppingScout™, a fast-paced start-up whose mission is to help shoppers save time, money and improve the quality of products they purchase. ShoppingScout develops mobile and web-applications that serve as the shoppers personal assistant. Artificial intelligence is used to understand each shopper’s personal product preferences and criteria, evaluate products and pricing and help them optimally plan their shopping trip. These applications leverage ShoppingScout’s $100B database that contains local pricing, promotions and product attributes for all products carried by name brand retailers.

ShoppingScout is led by a seasoned management team, including founders Ken and Tim Ouimet, who are credited with launching retail price optimization and helping retailers like Albertson’s, Lowe’s and 7-Eleven better align their pricing with local demand and competition. COO Bob Dunst joined the team early 2011 adding a unique range and depth of retail industry experience, having served as Albertson’s CIO & EVP of Supply Chain, and as VP of Advanced Technology, Applications Development and e-business at Safeway where he was responsible for Safeway.com.
