YumMates is your personal food journal; built for real life. Keep track of where you’ve been, what you ordered, and what you actually thought. Whether it’s a quick lunch, a date night, or a group dinner, YumMates helps you remember the meals worth going back for, and the ones to skip. Track your meals Check in at restaurants and log the dishes you try. No more forgetting that amazing pasta, or ordering the same disappointing thing twice. Rate what matters Rate individual items, not just the restaurant. Because sometimes the fries are a 10/10 and the burger… isn’t. Go with friends Add friends to your check-ins and see what they loved (or didn’t). Food is better when it’s shared, and so are recommendations. Discover new spots Get simple, smart suggestions based on time of day and what you’re in the mood for; coffee in the morning, tacos on Tuesday, and everything in between. Built for real life Start a check-in, enjoy your meal, and come back later to finish it. YumMates works around your life, not the other way around. Your data, your control Choose who can see your check-ins: just you, your friends, or everyone. Just getting started We’re building YumMates to be the easiest way to remember great food and discover new favorites. More features coming soon.
