Your whole week of dinners, planned on one board. Forkboard answers "what's for dinner?" for the entire week at once — a calm planning board instead of an endless recipe feed. Tell it a little about how you eat, and it plans seven nights around your tastes, your schedule, and what's already in your kitchen. The more you rate, the sharper it gets. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Plan the whole week, not one meal. Seven dinners land on one board, decided together — every night chosen knowing the other six, so cuisines vary from one night to the next. • Change one night, not the whole week. Swap a dinner you're not feeling and a new one takes its place. Pin the ones you love and replan the rest around them. • Effort that fits the night. Set your weeknight and weekend time budgets once — a 15-minute Tuesday, up to a two-hour Sunday — and Forkboard plans to them. Pin a night and tag it quick, standard or a proper project, and its next swap comes back in kind. • It learns your taste. Thumbs up the wins, thumbs down the misses. No long quiz to begin; it just gets better as you go. • Every dinner opens to a real recipe. Ingredients in the right quantities, numbered steps, and — where we have them — estimated per-serving calories, protein, carbs and fat. • Cook what you already have. Snap a photo of your fridge, a pantry shelf or a single label, or scan a barcode, and Forkboard leans the week toward what's already in it. Put an expiry date on the perishables and it tries to land each one on a night before it turns. • Leftover intelligence. Monday's roast chicken can become Thursday's tacos — the board sees the whole week. • One board for the whole household. On Family, everyone's tastes blend into a single week — and on every plan, every allergen you set is a hard rule, respected on every plate. • A grocery list that writes itself. Grouped by aisle, quantities merged into one line, and whatever's already in your pantry checked off. Share it out from your phone in a tap. • Sized for your table. Say how many you're cooking for — two on Solo, up to six on Family — and the recipes, and the grocery list, scale to match. • Marks for the cook. Kitchen stamps stack up as the weeks do: First Service, To Market, A Season of Sundays. ON EVERY SCREEN, IN SYNC Plan on your iPhone, spread out on iPad, or bring up the big board on the web — it's the same plan everywhere, always up to date. Start a week, lock your phone and come back: it keeps building without you. BUILT FOR REAL WEEKNIGHTS Set your cuisines, dietary needs, allergens, skill and time budgets once, then let Forkboard do the deciding. Allergens are a hard rule, never a suggestion: an allergen you've set simply never reaches the board. Sign in with a six-digit code sent to your email, or with Apple or Google — no password to invent. MEMBERSHIP Forkboard is free to start — four plans a month, one seat, no card required. Every new account also starts with 7 free days on Solo — the same full-quality planning, with 15 plans to get a feel for it. That trial is not a subscription and never turns into one: when it ends you simply drop to the free plan, and your boards stay put. A membership opens up the full board: • Solo — 30 plans a month for one cook. • Family — one board, up to six taste profiles, 60 plans a month pooled across the house. Add kids and partners as taste profiles without them needing an account of their own. Monthly and yearly memberships are available for both; the price for your country is shown in the app before you buy. Forkboard memberships are auto-renewing subscriptions. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, and the subscription renews automatically at the price shown unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings › Apple Account › Subscriptions. Privacy Policy: https://forkboard.app/privacy Terms of Service: https://forkboard.app/terms
