Drag and drop meals onto a weekly calendar. Plan breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks for each day. Swap meals between days with a tap. Copy successful weeks to future weeks. See the whole week at a glance on your phone or kitchen tablet.
Import recipes from any website URL, upload photos of handwritten recipe cards, or type in family favorites. HuniDu extracts ingredients, prep time, and instructions automatically. Tag recipes by dietary needs, cuisine type, or family favorites.
Get personalized dinner ideas based on your family's preferences, dietary restrictions, budget, and how much time you have. HuniDu learns what your family likes and suggests meals you'll actually make.
Every meal you plan automatically adds its ingredients to your grocery list. Ingredients are organized by category and combined (if you need chicken for two meals, it adds the total amount once). One-tap meal planning to shopping.
Assign who's cooking each meal. Set up automatic rotation schedules so dinner duty is fair. Kids can see when it's their turn to help. Everyone knows who's responsible before 5pm panic sets in.
Every recipe shows estimated prep time and difficulty level. Filter recipes by 'quick weeknight meals' or 'weekend projects.' Plan easy meals for busy days and save ambitious cooking for when you have time.

What households are saying
Early access and beta feedback where we have it.
The AI meal planner saved us $340 in our first month by reducing food waste and duplicate grocery purchases. It remembers my daughter's nut allergy and my husband's vegetarian preferences.

"I used to spend an hour every Sunday planning meals. Now it takes 30 seconds. The family voting feature means my kids actually eat what I make because they helped choose it."
