Let’s be honest

You’re the calendar, the chef, the shopper and the referee.

Every day, the same questions, and they all come to you.

A mother on a phone call while typing on her laptop, her two little boys eating at the kitchen table
  • What’s for dinner?
  • Who’s taking Noah to soccer?
  • Did anyone buy milk?
  • Whose turn is the dishes?
  • Is Grandma still coming Sunday?
  • Can Milo even eat that?

That’s not a you problem. That’s a no-system problem. Foodoodle is the system, and the whole family is in it.

One app for the two things every family keeps

Family management

Everyone in. Everyone pitches in.

One person plans. Everyone else helps from their own phone, in seconds.

    ❤️ Love it👍 Sounds good

    Sam and Alex voted

    Everyone gets a say.

    Their own login, or a kid profile you manage.

  2. A boy kicking a ball at soccer practice

    Tue · 5:00–6:30 PM

    Soccer practice

    Noah’s out for dinner

    The calendar knows who’s out.

    Practice runs late? It asks before you cook.

    Sam’s turn tomorrow

    Chores take turns.

    They skip whoever’s out, and kids with their own login check off their own.

Inside the app

The whole family, on one screen.

Real screens from the Hill House, our test family: two adults, two kids, three no-gos.

  • The Foodoodle Home screen: the Hill House’s four faces, tonight’s Chicken Alfredo with its votes and two flags, and who’s in for dinner

    Who’s in tonight

    Tonight’s dinner, everyone’s vote, and who’s still to say.

  • The family calendar: today’s chores, Noah’s soccer practice, Chicken Alfredo at 6:00 and the dishes after dinner

    One family calendar

    Practice, chores and dinner, on one day.

  • The chores: dishes after dinner taking turns between Sam and Alex, and Noah feeding the cat every morning

    Chores that take turns

    Set it once. It rotates, and skips a day when asked.

  • Noah’s profile: his peanut allergy, and Sushi Night as his birthday meal, shared with the planners

    A profile for each kid

    Their allergies and birthday meal, managed by you.

Purple means it’s just yours. Favorites and cravings stay private until you share them, and a private appointment shows everyone else as Busy. Whoever plans always sees restrictions, so every meal can be checked. A household can choose to show them to everyone. How we handle your data

Meal planning with allergies

Every meal gets checked. Conflicts get caught first.

Everyone’s allergies and no-gos, checked against every dinner before it reaches the list, with Swap one tap away.

It’s a helper, not a guarantee. It checks the ingredients we know about, so keep reading labels.

How it works

Set it up once. It runs all week.

One screen to start: name your household and you’re in.

  1. 1Keep

    Save the recipes your family loves, from anywhere.

  2. 2Plan

    Pick a theme, get seven dinners. Everyone votes from their own phone.

  3. 3Shop

    The list builds itself from the week, minus what’s already in the house.

  4. 4Eat together

    Dinner on the table, and nobody asks what’s for dinner again.

And it all talks to itself. Practice runs into dinner? Foodoodle asks who’s out before you cook. Put a recipe on the week and its ingredients hit the list. The dishes skip whoever isn’t home.

The grocery list: what’s needed, by aisle, each with the meal that needs it

Claude and ChatGPT

Your assistant, their assistant, one plan.

Each person connects their own Claude or ChatGPT. It signs in as them, sees what they see, and works from the household’s one plan, one list and one set of food rules. Whatever it does shows in the feed with its name on it. Alexa and Meta’s Muse are on the way.

  • Sam to her Claude: “I’m out Thursday.” The cook sees it on the plan.
  • Sam to ChatGPT: “Add oat milk.” It’s on everyone’s list.
  • Alex to ChatGPT: “What are my chores?” It answers, and nobody has to nag.
  • Any of them: “What’s for dinner?” The same answer, from the real plan.

Questions

The ones every household asks.

A woman checking her phone while she stirs a pot
What is Foodoodle?

A family meal planner that makes running a family easier. Dinner, the family calendar, chores and the grocery list live in one place everyone shares, built around the one thing that gets everyone to the table: dinner. Plan the week, and the list builds itself.

Is there a family calendar?

Yes. Events, chores and dinner on one calendar. Chores take turns and skip whoever’s out, kids with their own login check theirs off, and when practice runs into dinner Foodoodle asks who’s out before you cook. A private event shows everyone else as Busy.

Will my partner actually use it?

Their part is saying they’re in for dinner, tapping a vote and checking the calendar. That’s it.

Is it free?

The first 7 days are, with no card, and nothing is charged unless you subscribe. Then it’s $9.99 a month for up to 8 people, or $14.99 a month for up to 20, and 20% less paid by the year. For one person, Foodoodle is free: your recipes, your meal plan, the calendar and the grocery list.

I used Mealime. Can I move to Foodoodle?

Yes. Screenshot the recipes you love and scan them in, and your household can plan from them straight away. Scanning comes with the 7 days and the plan; typing a recipe in or pasting a link is always free. Moving from Mealime.

Do my kids need accounts?

No. Add a profile for each child. You manage it, and their restrictions apply to every plan. You can give them their own login from their profile later.

Can I rely on it for allergies?

It flags meals that may conflict with the restrictions you save, based on the ingredients we know about. It is a helper, not a guarantee. Always check labels and recipes yourself.

How long does setup take?

One screen: name your household and you’re in. Adding people and allergies comes after, whenever you like.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. It runs in your browser on iPhone, Android, and desktop, and you can add it to your home screen like an app. App store versions are coming.

Can I add recipes from other apps?

Yes. On Android, share a link from your browser, YouTube, or wherever you found it once Foodoodle is on your home screen. On iPhone, copy the link and paste it in. Cookbook pages scan straight in too.

Can I plan meals with ChatGPT or Claude?

Yes. Connect your own Claude, ChatGPT or other MCP assistant to Foodoodle and ask it what’s for dinner, add to the grocery list or put a meal on the plan, and everyone’s assistant works from the same plan. It works as you, with your permissions and nothing more. Alexa and Meta’s Muse are on the way. How to connect it.

It’s never going to be easy. It can be easier.

Start free. A subscription brings in everyone else, up to 20 people.
