Everything KitchenOS does, and nothing it pretends to.

A meal planner built for the way Indian families actually cook — around real health needs, the food in your kitchen, and the people who help you cook. Here's what's inside.

Plan the week

A week of meals that fits your real family.

KitchenOS plans the week around who's eating, what they can and can't have, and the regional food your family actually likes — South Indian, Bengali, Punjabi, Gujarati, and more. It works in the food you already cook, not a generic diet chart.

Meal suggestions are AI-generated and worth a quick sanity-check before you cook — you're always in control of the final menu.

  • Regional, not generic. Plans in the cuisines your household grew up on.
  • Per-person needs. Diabetes, blood pressure, allergies, and dietary preferences for each member.
  • Swap freely. Don't like a meal? Swap it and the plan keeps the week balanced.
Know your kitchen

Tell KitchenOS what's in your kitchen the easy way.

Add to your pantry however suits you — snap a photo, say it out loud, or scan a barcode. KitchenOS reads it, you confirm, and the week's plan works around what you already have. Then it builds a shopping list for only what's missing.

Snap a photo

Photograph your shelf or fridge and KitchenOS suggests the items it sees. Photo recognition is advisory — you confirm before anything is added.

Say it out loud

Reel off what you bought in Hindi or English while you unpack — "two kilos atta, a dozen eggs" — and it lands in your pantry.

Scan a barcode

Scan packaged goods to add them in a tap, with quantities, so your pantry count stays honest as you cook through the week.

Shopping list, sorted

The week's plan minus your pantry equals one tidy shopping list — the gaps only, so you waste less and make fewer trips.

Cook together, with dignity

A household tool that respects everyone in the kitchen.

Add every member of your household with their own role and needs, so the plan works for all of them. And when someone helps you cook, KitchenOS gives them their own respectful, PIN-protected view — today's menu, the recipe, and the quantities — while your family's health and personal details stay private.

  • Multi-member households. Primary planner, co-adults, children, elders — each with their own profile.
  • A dignified helper mode. Your cook signs in with their own PIN to a separate, limited view.
  • No family data exposed. Helpers see just today's cooking — nothing personal about your family.
Health, handled honestly

Plans that respect your medicines — advisory, not medical advice.

If someone in the house is on metformin, warfarin, or thyroid medication, KitchenOS can flag foods that are known to interact. Those alerts come from a deterministic, curated interaction ruleset — the same food rule applied the same way every time, never invented by an AI model. They're built to help you ask better questions, and they are not a substitute for your doctor or pharmacist.

Advisory, deterministic, transparent.

Interaction alerts are rule-based and curated — never invented by a model. They may not be exhaustive, and they never replace professional medical advice. KitchenOS is a planning tool, not a medical service.

Food with a calendar and a memory

Festivals at home, and the food you carried abroad.

KitchenOS knows the food year isn't flat. It plans around festivals and fasting days, and helps families living away from home keep cooking the cuisine they grew up on.

Festival & fasting aware

The plan recognises upcoming festivals and fasting days, so the week's menu fits the occasion instead of fighting it.

Diaspora cuisine continuity

Living away from India? KitchenOS helps you keep cooking your home cuisine, adapting to the ingredients you can actually find where you live.

Built in India

Your data lives in Mumbai.

Your account, household, health, and meal data are stored and processed in Google Cloud's Mumbai region (asia-south1). Some AI features call third-party model providers to generate suggestions; we send only a minimised, de-identified prompt and never your medication names or free-text health notes. The full detail is in our Privacy Policy.

  • Mumbai-hosted. Firestore, storage, and app logic in asia-south1.
  • DPDP-aligned. Clear consent, export, and delete for your data.
  • No selling, no ads. You're our customer, not the product.
