Shopic is a Tel Aviv-based retail technology company that turns ordinary shopping carts into AI-powered smart carts using a clip-on device driven by computer vision. Its platform recognizes items at the individual level in real time, enabling frictionless checkout, targeted in-store promotions, loss prevention, and store analytics without requiring retailers to rip out and replace their existing fleet of carts. Founded in 2015 by cybersecurity veterans, Shopic has raised roughly $56M and deployed with grocers including Israel's Shufersal, Walmart Chile, and Italian and French chains.
Raz Golan is the CEO and co-founder of Shopic, a Tel Aviv-based retail technology company that makes a clip-on device that snaps onto standard grocery carts and turns them into AI-powered smart carts. A veteran of Israel's Unit 8200 and a former Check Point security researcher, Golan started Shopic in 2015 with Eran Kravitz and Dan Bendler after concluding that big supermarkets did not need a new cart - they needed a small computer that could ride along on the one they already owned.
