A letter from the kitchen

One Tuesday night, I served my kids cereal for dinner.

Not because I didn't have recipes. I'd saved hundreds. They just lived in my camera roll, where recipes go to die. PlanPlate is the app I wished existed: paste any saved video or photo and get a real recipe, in seconds, that you'll actually cook.

Sound familiar?

You scroll at midnight, saving healthy recipes you genuinely want to cook. But when 5 pm hits and everyone is hungry, those recipes might as well be on another planet.

My camera roll was a graveyard of screenshots. My saved folder had hundreds of recipes I'd never make.

I was tired of saving recipes I'd never cook. So I built the fix.

500+ recipes the average home cook saves in a year
5 pm the hour the "what's for dinner?" panic arrives
0 guilt, from here on. That's the whole point.
