Features
Everything the kitchen week needs.
The planner, pantry, recipes, shopping, household context, and AI helpers all live together, without turning dinner into admin work.
Weekly meal planner
Plan Monday through Sunday with meals, notes, people counts, and a week everyone can read.
Shared groups
Households, couples, families, and friends share one active week, recipe library, and synced shopping list.
Meal suggestions
Ask for practical meal ideas based on pantry context, recipe tags, household audience, and the week you are filling.
Pantry photo scan
Photograph a shelf and review detected ingredients before they become pantry stock.

Ingredients scale around who is eating, so four-person pasta does not become six-person guesswork.

Keep an eye on what is already in the cupboard and what should be used soon.
Shopping lists
Turn planned meals into one checked list sorted by practical grocery categories.
Recipe URL import
Drop in a recipe link and get a structured draft with ingredients, servings, and instructions.
Public recipes and ratings
Copy public recipes into your own library and rate what earns a repeat.
AI cooking help
Ideas, imports, and scans when the week is messy.
AI assistance is built around the chores that usually slow meal planning down: deciding what to cook, entering pantry stock, and turning web recipes into usable cards.
