The Problem

Your kitchen is
working against you.

Most people don't need more willpower. They need a smarter system. NourishAI is that system.

You throw out food every week
That spinach you forgot. The avocados that ripened while you weren't looking. The leftovers that became a science experiment. It adds up — fast.
"What's for dinner?" is a daily dread
You open the fridge, stare for three minutes, close it, and order takeout. The ingredients you bought sit there judging you.
Nutrition tracking is exhausting
Logging every meal manually takes time, willpower, and a spreadsheet degree. So you do it for three days and give up.
$125/mo

You overbuy and undercook
No meal plan means random grocery hauls. Half of it goes unused because you never had a coherent week of meals in mind.
You don't know what's in your pantry
Something is expired. You bought three of the same thing. Something you needed is out of stock. The pantry is a mystery box.
Meal prep takes hours of planning
Finding recipes, checking what you have, making a shopping list — it's a part-time job you didn't sign up for.

Why NourishAI exists

Three problems.
One app.

The average household wastes $1,500+ in food annually. Most people have no idea what they're eating. And deciding what to cook is a daily source of stress. Nourish eliminates all three.

Food Waste
The average household wastes $1,500+ per year in food — most of it forgotten at the back of the fridge. Ingredients expire before anyone knows they exist.
✓ Waste Tracker + Expiry Alerts
Meal Paralysis
"What's for dinner?" is the most stressful daily question. Most people default to takeout or repeat the same 5 meals because they don't know what to cook with what they have.
✓ AI Recipe Generation + Plan My Week
Nutrition Blindness
Manual calorie logging is tedious and abandoned within days. Most people have no idea what they actually eat — calories, macros, and nutritional patterns stay invisible.
✓ Auto-logging + Macro Tracking

What Claude AI
does inside the app.

NourishAI runs on Claude Sonnet 4 — one of the most capable AI models available. Every intelligent feature in the app is powered by a different application of Claude's capabilities.

Claude Vision API

Pantry Intelligence

Claude Vision analyses photos of fridges and pantries in real time, identifying every visible ingredient with product-level accuracy — including brand recognition and freshness assessment.

  • Identifies 10–20 ingredients per scan in seconds
  • Detects wilted or damaged items (flags as "use soon")
  • Reads visible packaging and labels
  • Flags uncertain items for user clarification
  • Category classification (protein, dairy, produce, etc.)
Claude Text API

Recipe Generation

Claude generates restaurant-quality recipes using only ingredients the user already owns — with flavour-coherence rules, dietary restrictions, USDA-accurate nutrition, and household size scaling.

  • Generates 3 diverse recipes per pantry scan
  • Prioritises expiring [USE SOON] ingredients
  • Respects dietary preferences (vegan, gluten-free, etc.)
  • Calculates per-serving macros using USDA values
  • 5+ detailed cooking steps per recipe
Chef Nour AI

Cooking Assistant

Chef Nour is a personalised AI chef embedded in the cooking mode. Users can ask questions mid-cook about substitutions, techniques, scaling, and timing with full recipe context.

  • Context-aware: knows the full recipe you're cooking
  • Answers substitution and allergy questions
  • Explains techniques and cooking science
  • Adjusts serving sizes mid-cook
  • Available as a floating chat from any screen
Claude Planning API

Meal Planning

The Plan My Week feature uses Claude to generate a complete week of personalised meal plans — one click, all remaining days, with per-meal approve/reject before anything is saved.

  • Plans all remaining days in the current week
  • Balances breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks
  • Respects dietary preferences and household size
  • Per-meal approve/reject preview before saving
  • Limited to once per week (prevents farming)
Nutrition Data Sources
Open Food Facts
3M+ global products. Branded item lookup, barcode scanning, and locale-specific results for 50+ countries.
USDA FoodData Central
Gold-standard for whole foods. SR Legacy + Foundation + Survey (FNDDS) with 7,000+ mixed dishes.
Claude AI Estimation
Fallback nutrition generation with cross-validation against USDA macro-calorie ratios before saving.
Tested & Measured

Scan accuracy
benchmarks.

NourishAI's ingredient recognition is regression-tested against verified real-world fridge and pantry photos. Results are measured using precision (what fraction of identified items were correct) and recall (what fraction of visible items were found).

How these numbers are measured
Precision measures what fraction of identified items were correct. Recall measures what fraction of all visible items were found. Tests run on Claude Sonnet 4 using a two-call architecture: Call 1 is vision-only identification; Call 2 is text-only recipe generation — ensuring Claude's full attention is on the image during scanning.
TIP FOR USERS  Scans work best when the fridge isn't completely packed. A clear line of sight to each item gives the AI the best chance of reading labels and identifying ingredients accurately.
Style guide

Brand & Visual
Identity.

NourishAI uses a dark, premium aesthetic with a signature neon green accent. The design language is technical and clean — inspired by professional chef tools and health tech.

Design Principles

Dark-first
Always dark mode. Deep navy backgrounds with layered card surfaces.
Accent-led
One dominant accent (#C8FF57). All CTAs, active states, and progress use this colour.
SVG icons
All icons are custom SVGs. No emoji in UI chrome — emoji reserved for food items only.
Gradient accents
Key elements use #C8FF57→#57FFD4 gradient. Progress bars, level badges, XP bar.
Chef Nour

Chef Nour — The Brand Mascot

Chef Nour is a panda chef character who serves as the face of NourishAI's AI capabilities. The character appears throughout the app — as an animated avatar, in celebration modals, in alerts, and as the cooking assistant persona. Nour brings warmth and personality to what would otherwise be a purely functional AI experience.
