DataWeave’s platform displays the number of products in-stock and out-of-stock at various supermarkets across hundreds of ZIP codes, and tracks leading retailers like Walmart, Target, Safeway, Kroger, and several more. The product categories presently monitored are bottled water, disinfectants, hand soaps, hand sanitizers, toilet papers, and wipes. The underlying data is captured from the ‘in-store’ sections of the websites of each retailer and is refreshed periodically.

“Since retailers frequently update their websites with products available in-store, it presents an opportunity for us to leverage our technology platform to aggregate this information at scale and make them available to shoppers across the country. We are closely monitoring the regions most impacted by COVID-19 in the U.S. and will regularly expand our coverage of ZIP codes to include emerging areas,” said Karthik.
