## What is Passta?

Every week, opened packages end up in the trash: half a bag of potatoes, the rest of the cream, the leftover chicken. Not because you plan badly — but because recipes think in ingredients while supermarkets sell packages.

Passta flips that around. The AI plans your week backwards: from real package sizes to recipes that use them up completely. A 1.5 lb pack of chicken becomes two dinners. The yogurt tub spreads across your breakfasts. At the end of the week, the package is empty — not your trash can full.

HOW IT WORKS
- Tell Passta how many days, which meals, how many people — plus diet, allergies, and wishes ("taco night once, nothing over 30 minutes").
- The AI builds your weekly plan from realistic everyday recipes whose amounts fit exactly into the packages at your store.
- Your grocery list builds itself — sorted by store aisle, fully usable offline.
- Cooking mode walks you through every recipe step by step, with timers and an always-on display.
- Leftover Rescue turns whatever is still in your fridge into quick recipe ideas.
- Your Savings tab shows honestly what you saved: in dollars, grams, and CO₂ — week after week.
- Passta celebrates with you: milestones like your first zero-waste meal — with confetti and a shareable card.

BETTER TOGETHER AS A HOUSEHOLD
Invite your household member via link or code: plan, shopping list, pantry, ratings and preferences stay in sync across devices. Check something off, and it's checked off for everyone. And one subscription covers the whole household — up to 5 people.

WHAT MAKES PASSTA DIFFERENT
- Plans with real package sizes instead of guessing "7 oz of feta"
- Portions the way people actually eat — no giant servings just to empty packages
- Learns your taste from your ratings — without tracking you
- Grocery list, recipes, pantry, and savings work fully offline
- No ads, no trackers, no analytics

YOUR DATA
Your plans, recipes, and pantry stay on your device. Only if you enable household sync, the shared content lives on our servers in the EU (Frankfurt, Germany). Your account is just an email and a subscription status.

PASSTA PLUS
All AI features (weekly plans, revisions, Leftover Rescue) are part of Passta Plus: 7 days free, then $7.99/month or $69.99/year — and one subscription covers your whole household (up to 5 people). The subscription renews automatically and can be cancelled anytime in your App Store settings. Grocery list, saved recipes, pantry, and savings stay usable without a subscription.

Cook the week. Zero waste.
