The Story Behind PlanPlate

Hey, I'm Matthias, and I created PlanPlate out of pure desperation.

As a single dad of three, my evenings were chaos. I'd scroll TikTok at midnight, saving those beautiful, healthy recipes—vegan bowls, seasonal dishes, the kind of food I genuinely wanted to feed my family. But when 5 PM hit and three hungry kids asked "what's for dinner?", those recipes might as well have been on another planet.

My camera roll was a graveyard of screenshots. My Instagram saved folder had hundreds of recipes I'd never make. And when I tried to cook from a video? I'd pause it every ten seconds with messy hands, losing my place, getting frustrated.

I built PlanPlate because I was tired of the gap between inspiration and reality.

Here's what I want for you: No more guilt about all those saved recipes you never cook. No more 5 PM panic. No more tapping your phone with flour-covered hands. Just import any recipe in seconds, organize them in one place, and actually cook them—hands-free, with your voice guiding you through each step.

You deserve to reclaim your kitchen. To cook the meals you've dreamed about without the stress. To feel that quiet pride when dinner's on the table and your family is gathered around.

That's why PlanPlate exists.
