GalleyKeeper is your copilot for a well-stocked kitchen. Scan the barcode on a packet and it builds a living inventory that tells you what you already have — so you stop buying duplicates and stop throwing food away. SCAN A PACKET Point your camera at the barcode and GalleyKeeper names the product, sorts it by category and location, and stows it in your galley. Barcodes are read entirely on your device — the picture is never stored or uploaded. No barcode on it? Adding an item by hand is always one tap away. THE SMART DO-NOT-BUY LIST At the store, GalleyKeeper flags what you already have plenty of and guards your shopping list against duplicates. Fewer wasted dollars, less forgotten food. EXPIRATION & LOW-STOCK ALERTS See what's expiring soon and what's running low, with optional on-device reminders so nothing goes to waste or runs out. A GLANCEABLE STOCK SCORE The Provisions Gauge sums up your kitchen at a glance — staples covered, freshness, and low waste in one number. SHARE WITH YOUR HOUSEHOLD Add crew members so everyone sees the same inventory and shopping list. GALLEYKEEPER PLUS (optional subscription) Unlock the Flight Log (dollars saved and waste averted), full history, unlimited crew, and advanced expiry intelligence. - Monthly ($3.99) or annual ($19.99), with a 7-day free trial - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation. The subscription auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID Settings. Scanning, your full inventory, the do-not-buy list, and basic reminders stay free forever.
