Show HN: PlanEat AI, an AI iOS app for weekly meal plans and smart grocery listshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46254964Hi HN,I am Valerii and I have been working on PlanEat AI, an iOS app that builds fully personalized weekly meal plans with a smart grouped grocery list.The problem I am trying to solve is simple most people who want to eat better do not struggle with nutrition theory, they struggle with the daily questionswhat to cook today, how to keep it sustainable, and what to buy for the week.I tried Instagram and TikTok recipes, ChatGPT prompts, and existing meal planner apps. For me they failed in three places 1. low personalization I hate a bunch of ingredients, my wife hates a different bunch, and apps rarely adapt to that 2. they treat recipes and grocery lists as separate worlds 3. too many perfect recipes that do not fit real life time and local productsWhat PlanEat AI does now^ - builds a weekly meal plan based on goals, dislikes, available time and basic cooking equipment - generates simple step by step recipes using normal ingredients - creates a smart grocery list that is grouped by stoDec 13, 2025 2:57 PM

Show HN: Trott – search,sort,extract social media videos(ig,yt,tiktok)https://trott.hattimatimlabs.inI built Trott out of frustration with my own “Saved” folders on Instagram and YouTube. I’d save reels and shorts—workout tips, recipes, travel spots—thinking I’d find them again later. But, like most people, I ended up with a black hole of unsorted videos: no search, no filters, and if I ever did find the right video again, I’d have to dig through the whole thing just to get that one detail I needed.When I tried looking for solutions, I found only genre-specific apps or tools that demanded manual uploads or new workflows. None felt like they understood how real users behave or save content. So I decided to build Trott.What makes Trott different?You can share any Instagram Reel or YouTube Short (TikTok support launches next week) to Trott, straight from your phone’s native share menu—no manual uploads.Trott uses AI to extract relevant info automatically (ingredients, places, products, etc.) and sorts everything for you.It’s fully searchable with natural language.

Show HN: ReadMe Recipeshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26595436Heya HN!I launched ReadMe here a few years ago as a Show HN (and even got the domain by randomly happening across someone giving it away here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6397526), so I figured this was a good place to post our newest feature, ReadMe Recipes.Here's the link: https://readme.com/recipesMost API documentation focuses on Reference Guides, which have the information you need about an API... all the parameters, endpoints, headers, query params, etc. They're really important! However, for a first-time user (or even someone more experienced), it's like handing someone a dictionary and telling them to learn the language.So, we built Recipes, which are interactive, use case-based code walkthroughs aimed at helping you get your users to solve specific problems. Recipes pair a common use case for your API or technical product with a snippet of code and then walk through the code explaining what everything does.Rather than focus on GETs and PUTs and POSTs, Recipes makes itMar 26, 2021 6:42 PM
