CLUSTER COOKING-COOKS-HOME · 9 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-07-02
AI cooking and meal planning apps
This cluster consists of AI-powered apps that scan ingredients, suggest recipes, generate meal plans, track nutrition, and provide step-by-step or hands-free cooking guidance. The dated entry history shows a single product in June 2022, then a mostly monthly cadence from July 2025 through July 2026, with a few months absent in between. Traction leaders by activity signal are Cooking-Thozhan-WebApp (1 star), followed by RecipeScan - AI Meal Planner and Typhur (0 stars each).
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
