AI meal prep for working moms
Skip the 5pm 'what's for dinner' panic. Joeys plans your week around your kids and your calendar in minutes.
The problem
- It's 5pm, you're tired, and you still don't know what's for dinner
- Your kid won't eat what you actually want to make
- You buy groceries and half of it rots because there was no plan
- Pinterest recipes need three pans and 45 minutes — you have one and 20
- You keep ordering takeout and feeling guilty about it

Questions
- What if my kids are picky?
- Tell Joeys what they actually eat. It builds meals where you and your kids share a base — pasta, tacos, bowls — with small tweaks for each.
- How long does it take to set up?
- Two minutes. You answer a few questions about your family and Joeys generates the first week. You can swap any meal in one tap.
- Can I plan around school activities?
- Yes. Mark Wednesday as 'soccer night' and Joeys schedules a slow-cooker or sheet-pan meal that day.
- What about my partner's preferences?
- Add their no-go list once. Joeys avoids those across the whole plan.
- Will it actually save me time?
- Most users report the planning + grocery list together saves 2-3 hours per week. The real win is killing the 5pm 'what's for dinner' question.
