How it works

Ten minutes on Sunday. Then it mostly runs itself.

Five stages, start to finish. Nothing here is aspirational — this is the loop the app actually runs.

1

Tell it three things

Your goal, anything you cannot eat, and roughly how long you are willing to spend on a weeknight. That is the whole setup — there is no questionnaire and no weigh-in.

About two minutes, once
Why so few questions

Everything else it needs, it learns from what you cook. Asking you to predict your own eating habits up front produces a plan you abandon by Thursday.

2

Get the week

Seven dinners land in seven slots, each within your time budget and clear of your allergies. Do not like Thursday? Swap it, and only Thursday changes.

Ten seconds
Your allergies are hard rules

An allergen conflict is stated in words on the recipe itself, not signalled by a coloured dot you might miss. Nothing containing one is ever planned for you.

3

Shop from one list

Every ingredient for the week, sorted by aisle, with what is already in your pantry crossed off before you leave the house. Add your own items to the same list.

One trip
Where the aisles come from

The aisle on each line comes from the ingredient record, not from a store map — so the order holds wherever you shop. Ticking is local until you sync.

4

Cook it

Open the meal, cook in step mode with the timers already set. The last step is the only one that does any bookkeeping, and it does all of it.

Whatever the recipe says
One tap closes the loop

Finishing logs the meal, deducts the ingredients from your pantry, and marks the slot cooked. Three records, one action, fully undoable.

5

It gets easier

The plan starts leaning on what you actually cook and what is already in the cupboard. Recommendations say why they are there — not because a model liked you.

From week two
No black box

Every suggestion names its reason: the thighs in your pantry, the Wednesday noodles you always make, the breakfast gap in this week's plan.

When it goes wrong

The week bends rather than breaks.

Every plan survives contact with a Wednesday. Here is what the app does instead of marking you failed.

You go out instead

Nothing is marked missed. The meal stays in the slot, unplanned days are just unplanned, and the ingredients stay in your pantry for next week.

You cook something else

Log what you actually ate. The day's totals re-derive, the slot is left alone, and nothing scolds you for going off-plan.

You logged it wrong

Undo takes back the whole action — the meal, the pantry deduction and the cooked mark together. Or fix it two days later; every screen catches up at once.

The cupboard was emptier than you thought

Correct the count. The grocery list re-derives from the gap, so the missing item appears on the next trip without you adding it.

Common questions

Do I have to log everything for it to be useful?

No. The plan and the grocery list work whether or not you log a single meal. Logging is what makes the pantry and the trends accurate — skip it and those screens say so honestly rather than guessing.

What if I cook for more than one person?

Servings scale on the recipe and the grocery list follows. The log records what you ate, not what the pan held.

Does it work offline?

Cook mode and the grocery list do — they are the two you need in a kitchen and a supermarket basement. Changes sync when you are back on a connection.

Can I use my own recipes?

Yes. Recipes you write sit in your library alongside saved ones and can be planned like any other. Nutrition for them is computed from the ingredients you list.
