## What is Pantry?

Your kitchen, finally organized.

Stop staring at a full fridge with nothing to cook. Stop throwing away food you forgot. Snap one photo — Pantry's AI builds your kitchen inventory in seconds, then suggests recipes you can actually make tonight from what you already have.

The average household wastes $2,913 worth of food a year. Pantry users save $400+ in their first six months.

▸ HOW IT WORKS

Snap your fridge · AI identifies every ingredient
Pantry remembers everything across sessions
Recipes appear, ranked by what's about to expire
Cook · pantry deducts ingredients automatically
Get nudged before food goes bad — never too pushy

▸ WHY PANTRY IS DIFFERENT

Most fridge apps forget the moment you close them. Pantry is built around persistence — your inventory lives, learns, and gets smarter every week.

• PERSISTENT PANTRY: Your fridge inventory survives across days, weeks, devices.
• PROACTIVE ALERTS: Gentle reminders 1–3 days before items expire — not pushy app-pulls.
• RECIPE MATCHING: Tonight's suggestions ranked by what's in your fridge AND what's expiring.
• AUTO MEAL PLANS: Pro users get a full week of meals auto-built from current inventory.
• HANDS-FREE VOICE COOKING: Talk to Pantry while your hands are messy. "Next step." "Set a timer." "Substitute for ricotta?"
• FAMILY SHARING: Up to 4 people share one pantry. Everyone sees, everyone adds.
• PRIVATE BY DEFAULT: Photos are deleted within 24 hours. We never sell your data.
• ADAPTIVE LEARNING: Rate recipes you cook — Pantry learns your taste and shows fewer misses.

▸ WHO IT'S FOR

Households of 2–4 spending $50–300 a week on groceries. People tired of:
- "I forgot I had this and it went bad"
- "What should I cook tonight?"
- "My fridge is full but there's nothing to eat"

▸ FREE vs PRO

Free: 5 photo scans + manual entry + basic recipes + 1 expiry alert/day.

Pantry Pro ($4.99/week or $44.99/year) unlocks:
• Unlimited fridge scans

• Auto-generated weekly meal plans + grocery lists

7-day free trial on the yearly plan. Cancel any time.

▸ PRIVACY

Pantry is built on self-hosted infrastructure — no third-party data resellers. Photos are encrypted, processed, then deleted within 24 hours. You can export or delete all your data from Profile · Settings.

▸ SUBSCRIPTION TERMS

Pantry Pro renews automatically at the price selected. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation. Subscription auto-renews unless turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in your Apple ID Account Settings.

This app worked for about 10 photos and then all of a sudden it couldn’t recognize milk or cheese or any photo that I uploaded.
