From receipt to recipe.
Three steps, start to dinner. No accounts to wire up, no spreadsheet to keep.
See what’s on your shelf
Snap a receipt or scan a barcode. Pantry reads each item and sorts it for you, so your kitchen has an honest inventory without the data entry.
See what’s turning first
Everything lands in one of three freshness tiers, from short-window produce to shelf-stable staples. The fridge stops being a guessing game, and less of what you bought ends up in the bin.
Recipes from what you have
Pantry builds dishes from the ingredients you already own, leading with whatever is turning first. The recipes are generated on your device, not pulled from an outside catalog.
Built for the way you actually shop.
Everything here is in the app today. We list nothing we haven't built.
Receipt and barcode capture
Snap a grocery receipt or scan a product barcode. Pantry reads the items and adds them to your shelf, so the inventory keeps itself up to date without the typing.
Three-tier shelf-life triage
Each item lands in one of three freshness tiers, from short-window produce to shelf-stable staples. The timing calibrates to your household as you mark things used, so the estimates fit how you actually cook.
On-device recipe generation
Recipes are built from a technique library and an ingredient-pairing graph that ship inside the app. Your ingredients drive the dish, and nothing is fetched from an outside catalog.
Recurring-staples detection
Pantry notices what you buy on repeat and learns your staples, so a pre-shop list reflects how your kitchen really runs.
Herb-cluster preservation options
Buy a bunch of herbs and Pantry lays out use-and-store options before they wilt, the spot where most fresh produce is lost.
Your kitchen, your data.
