Rädda
An AI-powered mobile app for recipe matching and meal planning to reduce food waste.
The Problem
The average family wastes $1,500 worth of food every year. Vegetables rot in the back of the fridge, leftovers get forgotten, and pantry staples expire before they're used. It's not just expensive—it's exhausting. The nightly "what's for dinner?" scramble leads to impulse takeout orders and grocery runs for ingredients you probably already have.
Rädda—Swedish for "to save" or "to rescue"—tackles this problem with AI that actually understands your kitchen. Snap a photo of your fridge, and the app identifies what you have, tracks what's about to expire, and suggests recipes that use those ingredients first.
Key Features
- Suggests recipes based on ingredients you already have.
- AI-powered ingredient recognition from photos.
- Tracks expiring ingredients to help you save money.
- 10% of proceeds are donated to local food banks.
