Kindred - Family Hub - One calm home for your family's meals, shopping & chores

by•
Kindred turns shared meals, the shopping list, and household chores into one calm weekly rhythm for the whole family. Snap a recipe photo or paste a URL and AI imports it; generate a week's meal plan in a tap; the shopping list builds itself from what you've planned. Everyone in the household stays on the same page — no more scattered notes and group chats. iOS & Android.

Hi Product Hunt 👋 I'm the maker of Kindred. This started from a very ordinary frustration: running a household took five different apps and a permanently chaotic family group chat. Meals lived in one place, the shopping list in another, chores nowhere. Nobody was ever looking at the same thing. So I built Kindred to put the whole rhythm of a household in one calm place: • AI recipe import — snap a photo or paste a link, it pulls out the recipe • One-tap weekly meal plans that the AI generates for you • A shopping list that builds itself from what you've planned • Shared chores the whole household can see and split • Up to 8 members on one shared household, plus recipe Circles for sharing with friends/family I deliberately kept it calm — no gamified nagging, no aggressive notifications. It's a utility for busy families, not another attention trap. For Product Hunt: I'm giving away 3 months of Premium free — redeem code 2026LAUNCH in the App Store (new & lapsed subscribers, iOS). I'd genuinely love your feedback — what's the one thing that would make this a daily-use app for your household? I'll be here all day answering.

How well does it actually handle picky eaters or multiple dietary restrictions when generating the weekly meal plan? Curious how much manual tweaking ends up being needed versus just letting the AI run with it.

 I built it for my family. I am veggie and wife and kids eat meat. No beef for any of us. Also no mushrooms and spice for the little one. Each meal you add your household recipe can be set as for only certain members I.e chicken burger is linked to veggie burger where only I eat the veggie. Ai is only used to assign allowed meals to certain people and to schedule based on a rotation and batch the cooking chores. Also allows comments like it’s a hot week so choose cold meals etc… in theory can be done without ai but these extra comments need ai. Give it a play let me know any tweeks. But for our real household with individual needs works well. Like most things more effort you put in adding dietary and meal preferences the better the results. But out of the box it’s quite good but I’m biased would love your thoughts
