We Believe Meal Planning Should Be Effortless
GoodSpoon was born from a simple frustration: "What's for dinner?"
Our Story
In our family, my wife handles meal planning. She's great at it, but there was one recurring challenge we kept running into.
She'd be mid-planning, hit a wall, and ask me: "What do you want to eat next week?" It seemed like such a simple question.
But every single time, my mind would go completely blank. What did I like? What hadn't we had in a while? In that moment, I couldn't recall a single meal I'd ever enjoyed. It was like meal planning amnesia.
I wanted to be helpful and contribute to the planning, but I kept drawing a blank when put on the spot. There had to be an easier way—one that didn't rely on perfect recall or instant decision-making.
That's how GoodSpoon was born. An AI-powered meal planner that remembers what you like, tracks what you haven't had recently, and suggests meals when your brain draws a blank. Because nobody should have to struggle with meal planning amnesia, whether you're doing the planning or just trying to help.
What We Stand For
Our values guide every decision we make and every feature we build.
Simplicity
Meal planning should be simple, not a second job. We automate the tedious stuff so you can focus on actually enjoying your meals.
Sustainability
Reduce food waste through better planning. Every ingredient tracked, every meal planned, less thrown away.
Connection
Food brings people together. Share recipes, coordinate meals, cook as a team. Less stress, more time at the table.
The Problem: Meal Planning Decision Fatigue
66% of people experience decision fatigue when it comes to meal planning. Feeling overwhelmed or stressed by the process. Sound familiar?
2.5 hours per week is how long the average couple spends just deciding what to eat. That's almost 5 days per year!
Most parents have no idea what they're serving for dinner one hour before dinnertime, leading to last-minute stress and unhealthy choices.
Our Solution: Automation + AI
GoodSpoon eliminates decision fatigue by doing the thinking for you. Pierre, our AI assistant, suggests meals you'll love based on what you have, what you like, and what you haven't had in a while.
