A system that connect meals, groceries, budget, recipes, and schedules into one place

As a working mom of 3, the hardest part of my week isn’t doing things — it’s thinking about everything.

What are we eating?
How much will groceries cost?
Can we stay on budget?
Do I even have time to cook?

It’s constant mental load.

So I built Amelna — a system that connects meals, groceries, budget, recipes, and schedules into one place, and actually plans your week for you.

Here’s how it works:

• Auto-pilot meal planning: Amelna builds your weekly meals based on your schedule, energy level, and your family’s preferences (including those “I don’t feel like cooking” days)

• Smart grocery lists with price guidance: It automatically generates your grocery list based on your meal plan and shows a price range — so you know what you’re likely to spend before you get to the store

• Real-time budget insights: If you’re going over budget, it suggests simple swaps (like frozen vs fresh, or protein alternatives) to help you save

• Understands your real household: It accounts for pantry staples you already have and adapts meals for picky eaters or different preferences

• Connected budgeting: Your income, expenses, and savings goals all tie in — so your weekly plan actually supports things like saving for a trip

The goal wasn’t to build another planning app. It was to build something that reduces the mental load of running a household — and keeps getting smarter the more you use it.
