Set your calories. Set your macros. Set what you won't eat. PrepMeal AI builds a weekly plan that actually respects all three — down to the gram. Most "AI" meal planners ignore half of what you tell them. Ours doesn't. WHAT MAKES PREPMEAL DIFFERENT → Hits your calorie target, not a rounded guess Tell it 1,800 calories. Get a plan built to land there every day — not averaged across the week. → Respects your "no" list Say no seafood, no mushrooms, no cilantro. It's gone. Not "reduced." Gone. → Uses what's already in your fridge Scan what you have. Get meals built around it instead of a grocery list that ignores your pantry. → Built around you, every time Every plan is generated for your goals, your budget, and your preferences — not pulled from a generic template. FEATURES AI Weekly Meal Plans — 7 days, 4 meals/day, built for your calorie target, macros, dietary rules, and fitness goal (cut, bulk, maintain) Fridge Scan — Point your camera, get meals built around what you already own One-Tap Meal Swap — Don't like Tuesday's lunch?
