Sound familiar?

You buy groceries with the best intentions. Then life happens.

What if you never overbought again?

The average family loses $150/month to forgotten groceries. Imagine knowing exactly what you have before you shop.

What if 5pm wasn’t stressful?

Instead of staring into the fridge and ordering takeout, you’d already know what to cook with what’s on hand.

What if nothing went to waste?

No more finding slimy lettuce in the back of the drawer. A gentle nudge before anything goes bad.

How it works

From grocery haul to dinner plan in three minutes

Snap, scan, or screenshot

Photo your groceries, your paper receipt, or screenshot your Instacart/Walmart pickup order. AI handles all three.

Review & confirm

The app shows what it found. Tap to correct anything it missed. It learns your fridge over time.

Get nudged

Color-coded alerts: green (fresh), amber (use soon), red (cook tonight). One glance, no guessing.

Dinner answers itself

Tap any item for recipe ideas built from what you have. Share the fridge with your whole household.

Why I’m building this

I started building Freshly Kept after throwing away an entire crisper drawer of vegetables for the third week in a row. I’m a parent. I buy groceries with good intentions, then life takes over. I tried every app out there — they all wanted me to scan barcodes or type every item by hand. Nobody’s going to do that. So I’m building the one that just works: take a photo, and it handles the rest.
