A meal planning app that gets dinner all the way to the table.
Choose the week’s dinners, shop from one list, prep what will help, and see what is left each night.
Dinner should not become four separate planning jobs.
A calendar alone still leaves you to build the list, work out what can be done ahead, and reread the recipe at dinner time. rootd keeps those parts connected.
- 01
Plan
Choose dinners for the week you actually have.
Put simpler meals on busier nights, keep room to change your mind, and stop reopening the dinner question every evening.
- 02
Shop
Bring every meal into one grocery list.
The ingredients are grouped into one place, so the list follows the plan instead of becoming another job to assemble.
- 03
Prep
Do the work that will matter later.
Chop vegetables, mix sauces, or start a marinade ahead. Leave the parts that taste best fresh for the night you eat them.
- 04
Tonight
See what is left and start cooking.
Open tonight’s dinner to see what is already handled and what still needs your attention. You are continuing the plan, not starting over.
The plan changes what happens before dinner.
Choose a night to see how planning, preparation, and the final handoff work together.

What a weekly planner should do.
What does rootd plan?
rootd keeps your dinners, grocery list, useful prep, and the work left tonight connected in one weekly plan.
Does rootd make the grocery list?
Yes. Once the meals are chosen, rootd combines their ingredients into one list for the week.
Do I have to cook every meal ahead?
No. rootd identifies the preparation that will help later while leaving each dinner’s fresh cooking and finishing steps for the night you eat it.
What if the week changes?
The plan is a starting point, not a fixed menu. You can replace a meal when your schedule or appetite changes.
Make the week easier before dinner begins.
Two weeks to see how rootd fits your rhythm. No card needed. Your trial begins only when your first plan is ready.
