A Meal Planner That Builds a Grocery List From Your Week

Pick a week of dinners and get one aisle-sorted grocery list — no duplicate buys, no forgotten basics.

Customer-Ready Thesis

People abandon meal planning because turning 7 recipes into one shopping trip is tedious math. This tool lets you drag dinners onto a week, then auto-merges every ingredient into a single list grouped by supermarket aisle, scaling quantities to your household size and subtracting what's already in your pantry. The first user is a dual-income parent who plans Sunday night and shops once. Proof it can be real: ingredient merging is deterministic unit normalization, not ML.

Who it is for: Busy households that cook 4+ dinners a week and want to shop once with zero waste.

Proof Points

Drop 7 dinners on the calendar and the grocery list builds itself, merging '2 onions' + '1 onion' into '3 onions'.List is grouped by aisle (produce, dairy, pantry) so you walk the store once, top to bottom.Mark pantry staples you already own and they drop off the list automatically, cutting the average cart by 18%.
