CommonTable
AI-Powered Healthy meals Planning App for Busy Families on a Budget
CommonTable solves three interlocking problems that makes healthy eating on a budget difficult for families of all sizes.
The first is the money problem; families typically overspend their grocery budget by $80-$150 per month.
Secondly, parents make over 200 food related decisions per week which leads to decision fatigue.
The third is the health-budget conflict—69% of Americans say rising food prices make eating healthy significantly harder.
No existing solution addresses all three problems simultaneously. However, CommonTable does by combining four types of AI technology into a single, continuously improving experience. It starts with live grocery deals and builds a personalized, nutrition-maximizing meal plan around what is cheapest, therefore making savings automatic.
The primary users are families with children under 18-years-old, young couples, or individuals who need to eat on budget.
