A very small app trying to fix a very human problem
If it's one thing i know to be true about PH, it is that you guys are honest, as well as a dislike of product promotion. But we need honest and experienced people right now.
I’m Lucas. I’m working on Matdags.
Matdags started from food going bad in my fridge. Mostly because I forgot about it, bought more than needed, or didn’t have the energy to think about what to cook with almost expired items. I kept noticing the same thing. Most food waste at home isn’t intentional. And most tools trying to solve it ask for more attention than people realistically have.
Food management lives in the background of life. It competes with work, family, stress, and lazy days. If a product relies on constant manual input, tracking, or motivation, it breaks as soon as life gets busy.
So Matdags is an attempt to design around that reality.
Technically, we’re focused on reducing friction as much as possible. Scanning instead of typing. Estimating expiration instead of asking users to decide. Using reminders carefully, only when they actually add value. A lot of effort has gone into making the system do the work instead of the user.
It’s still early. We’re testing assumptions and definently breaking things. But the core idea is simple: if you want behavior change to last, the interface has to carry most of the load.
Please leave anonymous feedback within the app, or if you'd like, non-anonymous feedback to the email listed below.
Happy to answer any questions about the product or the technical decisions behind it.
