Dinner shouldn’t decide your budget.

$2.50

the home dinner that delivers

Five weekday dinners per person, based on prices in your country.

−44%

below the average dinner

The same plate, thought through: cheaper than an ordinary homemade dinner, without eating less well.

1 meal

saved from the bin every week

That is what a household throws away per person. A menu decided in advance, a list: nothing bought for nothing.

In three steps

How it works

The journey we’re building starts with your budget, not the receipt.

Set your budget and stores

Your target budget, household and shopping habits: the planned starting point for your week.

Choose meals with the cost in mind

The goal: connect the dinners you want with the groceries they need, without confusing an estimate with a checkout price.

See what’s left to buy

A list for each store, with the quantities to buy. Price sources and retailer coverage still need validation.

What you get

Know first. Buy right.

Decided before. Priced from your receipts, minus the cupboard.

  • You see the total first

    Your receipts. A gap is never free.

  • You stop buying twice

    The cupboard comes off the list.

  • You walk the store once

    One pass, in your aisles.

  • You keep your usual shops

    Your stores. Not a partnership.

  • You finish what you cooked

    Sunday becomes a dinner again.

  • No more double-buy

    Who ticks, the other sees.

  • Your prices, not an average

    Photo the ticket: it prices the week.

  • Your dishes enter the week

    Link or photo. The list follows.

  • You set the rules once

    Nothing they cannot eat.

  • You ask your own kitchen

    Your menu. Your cupboard.

  • You buy for who eats

    A child is half a portion.

  • Ticking fills the cupboard

    Ticked: already put away.

A portion has a cost. So does the pack.

A serving of rice isn’t a bag of rice. The project separates the cost of your meals from the groceries you need to buy.

  • Quantities for your household
  • Purchases to estimate
  • What you already have

You save time in the store.

Filter by store, then by aisle. You walk it once, take the essentials, and you’re out.

Savings

The more you use it, the more you save.

Yumki starts from what you already have and uses leftovers. Less waste, less spent, week after week.

  • What you have, you don’t buy again

    Rice, tins, spices: the cupboard comes off the next list. Nothing is paid for twice.

  • Opened packs become dinners

    An opened pack feeds two nights. Yumki sequences dinners to finish it, instead of leaving it at the back of the fridge.

  • You see the money you keep

    Each week, the amount you didn’t spend is in front of you. In a month, the subscription has already paid for itself.

The bill, rewritten

What the week gives back.

Household and homemade dinners, in the country chosen at the top of the page. The figure follows that market’s survey: a list before you shop, recipes chosen on purpose, a healthier plate that also costs less.

No plan, dinner is $4.50 a head. With the week's menu, $2.50. You keep $2. We only put $0.80 in the big number — 40% — because you won't do that every night.

Camille FerrandLyon · two kids
Tuesday evening, I no longer wonder what we’re eating. The week gets planned on Sunday in twenty minutes, and the list comes out sorted by aisle.
Youssef BenaliBrussels
Vegetables at the corner grocer, everything else at the supermarket. It’s the first app that doesn’t make me choose between the two.
Marine LefèvreNantes · flatshare
Three of us, and we split the shopping badly. Seeing the total before leaving was enough — nobody argues at the till any more.
Léa VasseurRennes
I batch-cook on Sundays. Having the quantities worked out for four evenings saves me the dish we end up throwing away on Friday.
Mehdi AmraniAntwerp
We used to split the shopping over text, and something was always forgotten. One list my girlfriend opens at the same time as me was all it took.
Claire BuchsGeneva
My son is lactose intolerant. I tick the constraint once, and I no longer skim every recipe to double-check.
Thomas ZwahlenLausanne
What sold me is the cupboard. There’s rice left, it takes it off the list. I stopped buying the fourth bag.
Sofia MoreauMontreal
I cook for two on a tight budget. Seeing what the meals cost before confirming the week is exactly what I was missing.
Karim DialloLille
I’d given up on three meal-planning apps before this one. It starts from the shopping, not the recipes, and that’s what makes it stick.
Antoine TremblayQuebec City
The price shown before I leave matches what I pay at the till. Sounds obvious, but none of the apps I tried did it.
Nadia CherifToulouse · three kids
Leftovers stopped being a problem and became a meal. Sunday’s chicken comes back as wraps on Tuesday, and the app is the one suggesting it.
Pieter De SmetGhent
There are two of us and we always cooked too much. Adjusted portions emptied the freezer of boxes we never reopened.

Frequently asked questions

What does Yumki cost?

Nothing to start, and no card: every month you get one planned week, three receipts read and ten assistant messages. Once it becomes your Sunday habit, Pro lifts all three limits — €7.90 a month, €34.90 a year, or €59.90 once and for all.

Where do the prices on my list come from?

From your own receipts, not a national average. Photograph a till receipt, Yumki reads its lines and remembers what you paid, store by store; your next list is costed at your prices. Anything you have never bought stays without a price — Yumki shows it separately rather than counting it as zero.

Do I have to type everything in?

No, and that is the whole point. A recipe comes in from a link or a photo, a receipt is read from one picture, and every item you tick off while shopping lands in your pantry. You never enter the same thing twice.

Will my budget hold?

Your budget is a target, not a promise at the till: nobody can guarantee what an aisle will charge. You set your weekly amount, Yumki tells you straight away what it means per dinner per person, and your list shows what is left to buy along with how many items actually carry a price. An estimate stays an estimate, and a missing price is never a free item.

What about allergies, my diet, the things I can’t stand?

Set once, then respected: six diets, ten allergens, and the ingredients you never want to see again — from coriander to blue cheese. Your kit, prep time and cooking confidence count too. Keep reading labels: a recipe brought in from the web arrives with its source text, not an allergen analysis.

Do I have to switch stores or order online?

Neither. You pick the shops you already use, among those in your country, and your list is sorted by store then by aisle. Yumki has no partnership with them and pushes no click-and-collect: you shop as before, knowing what to take.

Can we use it together?

Yes — the household is the unit: the menu, the list, the cupboard and the receipts are the same for everyone, each with their own account. What one person adds to the list, the other sees in the aisle.
