The smartest way to shop
powered by AI
Experience a grocery list that does the thinking for you. Veloop uses advanced AI to automate everything from aisle sorting to weekly meal planning.
Smart Shopping
The list sorts itself. You just shop.
Meal Planning
Answer 'what's for dinner?' without thinking. Meal ideas that use what you have.
Advanced AI
Take a photo of a recipe — and the items are in your list. Or let your AI agent do it.
Privacy
Veloop never sells your data. You control your own habits.
Smart Shopping
Automatic Categorization
Any added item is automatically placed in its correct category.
- Type "milk" and it goes under Dairy
- Learns your custom habits
- Works seamlessly across 4 languages
- Always in the background, zero setup
Eks: When you add an item, Veloop instantly understands what it is. Add 'milk' and 'apples' and they are automatically sorted under 'Dairy' and 'Produce'. Your list stays tidy with zero manual work.
Kitchen Overview
Full control of fridge and freezer, right in the app.
- See what you have at home — and what needs to be used soon
- Swipe items straight into the meal planner
- Staples are automatically added to the grocery list
- Freshness colors show what's urgent
Eks: Monday evening. You open Veloop and see that the chicken breast in the fridge is orange — 'use soon'. You swipe it right and get three dinner suggestions that use exactly that chicken. The missing ingredients land on the grocery list. Done.
Smart Aisle Sorting
Minimize backtracking in the store. Items are sorted based on where you physically are.
- Learns the layout of your local store
- Adapts to different users' routes
- Layouts are saved when you visit a different store
Eks: As you check off items in the store, Veloop learns your preferred route. It continuously adapts its sorting to show you items in the order you pick them. Never scroll or run back and forth again.
Meal Planning
Auto Store Switching
The app senses when you change stores and flips the sorting priority instantly.
- Supports major supermarkets
- Location-based triggers
- Perfect for commuters
Eks: Veloop remembers the layouts of all the stores you visit. If you usually shop at Store A, but drop by Store B, the list automatically switches the category order based on your location. Seamless.
Smart Auto-fill
Type a dish name, get the ingredients. All without leaving the input field.
- Type 'Taco' and pick from instant suggestions
- LLM understands recipe inputs
- Automatically ignores duplicates
Eks: Instead of typing each ingredient, just type a dish (e.g., 'Taco'). The AI immediately adds sour cream, beef, and shells, and skips the spice mix if it knows you added it yesterday.
AI Meal Planner
Let AI plan your week. Tailored strictly to your family size and pantry.
- Respects allergies and intolerances
- Scaled to family size
- Generates weekly menus + grocery lists in one tap
Eks: Need inspiration? Tap 'Generate Menu' and the AI builds a week of delicious dinners suited exactly for your family. It respects allergies and bundles all ingredients into one neat grocery list.
Advanced AI
Leftover Assistant
Clear out your fridge with smart recipes—just list what you have, or snap a photo.
- Take a photo of your fridge for ideas
- Minimizes extra purchases
- Reduces food waste and saves money
- Uses your staples intelligently
Eks: Got half an onion, some eggs, and sour cream? Snap a picture of your fridge. Veloop automatically suggests recipes that use up exactly what you have, and adds any missing items to your grocery list.
Magic Photo
Take a photo of a book or recipe, and Veloop fetches the items automatically.
- From print to list
- Calculates portions
- Categorizes beautifully
- Handles messy handwriting and notes
Eks: Love your grandmother's old cookbook? Use Magic Photo. Take a photo, and seconds later all ingredients are converted into categorized items on the family's grocery list.
Magic Recipe Reader
Share a link from the web, and let Veloop extract the items directly.
- Works with all major food blogs and recipe sites
- Share -> Veloop in Safari
- Highly accurate ingredient parser
- Avoids ads
Eks: When you find inspiration on a site on your mobile, just press the Share button. The recipe and surrounding text are stripped away, and you're left with a clean, sorted list of ingredients for you to approve.
AI Agent Support (MCP)
Connect Claude Desktop or GPT via Model Context Protocol for full automation.
- Connect Claude, GPT or other LLMs
- Agents can read/write to your list
- Manage weekly menus via your AI bot
- Secured via personal API keys
Eks: Veloop fully supports the open Model Context Protocol. Connect Claude Desktop directly to your family list and ask your AI assistant to alter your weekly menu—watch the list update in the background.
