Because There's No Place Like Around The Corner

Bakodo Scanner allows you to find exactly what you want, as close as you want it. Looking to grab that book straight away? Scan it, choose a store, and you'll get the address, how far it is, and even driving directions if you'd like. Don't forget: you can call them first to make sure they're still open!
Scan One and Done

We've integrated some of the major product search engines - Amazon, Google, and eBay to name a few - so you can maximize your buying power. With information on over 12 million products, and more added every day, Bakodo gives you all the knowledge you need so you can get on your way. It's a one-stop shopping guru that fits in your pocket.
No Phone Left Unturned

Here at Bakodo, we strive to maximize the user experience. With our advanced scanning technology, you can choose to hold your phone in landscape mode, which makes the scan even more precise - and it's probably a bit more comfortable too. Bakodo understands all the major barcode types: EAN-13 (books, electronics), UPC-A (groceries), UPC-E, and EAN-8, with additional types soon to come.
An App That Fits You

Switch preferences on the fly to customize your results. Turn off the scan beep, have it open to your scan history upon launch, or change the country and currency. And feel free to rate us in the AppStore! If you'd like us to add a particular vendor, a new product detail category, or anything else, please let us know by sending an email to info@bako.do.
iPad and iPod Touch Users:

You might not be able to scan, but you can still take full advantage of our great keyword search interface. Enter either the barcode number or the name of the product you're looking for. You still get all the goodness.
