Making the world a better place, one meal at a time
Like many couples, my wife and I found ourselves standing in front of the fridge, exhausted after long work days, staring at ingredients but having no idea what to cook. The daily question "What's for dinner?" became our biggest stress.
We were constantly eating out, spending far more than we should have, while fresh ingredients sat forgotten in our fridge until they expired. It was frustrating, expensive, and wasteful.
"Isn't it strange that with all this technology, there's no simple way to snap a photo of your ingredients and get recipe ideas instantly?" - My wife
That moment changed everything. I looked at her and said, "Let's build it." She wasn't sure if I was serious at first, but we started brainstorming right there in our kitchen. What began as sketches on napkins evolved into late-night coding sessions and countless UI iterations.
SnapZero started as a raw idea, but with each version, it became more refined. We tested it ourselves, cooking together using our own app. The first successful meal was magical - we were actually excited to cook! That joy kept us going.
Food waste isn't just about throwing away leftovers. Behind every wasted ingredient is a chain of resources: the water to grow it, the energy to transport it, the labor to harvest it, the soil that nurtured it. When we waste food, we waste all of these precious resources.
40%
of food produced globally goes to waste
That's not just an environmental crisis - it's an economic and moral one. We believe technology can help change this, one household at a time.
We're committed to reducing food waste through smart, simple solutions. SnapZero will always prioritize:
Every meal planned is a step toward a sustainable future
Reducing food waste means less methane in landfills and lower carbon footprint
Families save hundreds of euros yearly by using what they have and planning smarter
No more daily stress about meals - get instant inspiration from your ingredients
Building a movement of conscious consumers who value food and reduce waste
This is just the beginning. We have big dreams - from connecting you directly with local farmers to building a community of food lovers sharing their creations. But it all starts with you, in your kitchen, making one smart meal at a time.
