Digitize your pantry
Scan or search from our database of over a million foods to load what you already have. Scan your grocery receipt to add each new shop. Tuna tracks how much you have and when it expires.

Add every new shop from the receipt
Scan Grocery Receipt brings the whole shop in. Later, each trip shows how much of it got used and how much was tossed.

Chat with your pantry
Tell Tuna what you bought, ate, cooked or tossed, out loud or typed, and confirm it. Or connect Tuna to the AI chat app you already use and ask what's on hand.
“Two pounds of chicken breast and a dozen eggs”
Adds both to the pantry once you confirm
“The kids each had a cheese stick”
Logs a snack for everyone
“I made the chicken bowls for four”
Cooks the recipe, takes the ingredients out of the pantry
“The rest of the spinach went bad”
Records it, so it stops counting as on hand
Say what you ate from or added to your pantry
"We finished the milk, there's about half the lasagna left, and I tossed the spinach." Tuna lays out each change, and nothing is saved until you confirm.

Ingredients come off the pantry when you cook, prep recipes included. The dish goes on the shelf where it keeps, with its own date.

See what food really costs
Real amounts, not guesses.
A chat app knows what you tell it. Tuna counts what happened in your kitchen: the receipt you scanned, the dinner you cooked, the yogurt that went bad. Ask how much rice is left and you get an amount, not a maybe.
What you told a chat app | What Tuna counts |
|---|---|
| “We have chicken” | How much is left: the receipt, minus what the last cook used |
| A rating on last night’s tacos | What each person actually ate, and when |
| “Groceries are expensive” | What this dinner cost, from what you paid |
| “Stuff goes bad sometimes” | What went bad, from your own All gone answers |
It knows food, too. A cup of flour weighs 120 grams, cooked rice keeps four days, and “GV ORG BLK BEANS” on your receipt is a can of black beans. Connect your AI chat app and it works from all of it.
- 1
In from the receipt
2 lb of chicken breast at $12.99, the amount and price on the receipt.
- 2
Out when you cook
The recipe reads what's on hand, 3.4 lb of chicken, and tells you you're a lemon short.
- 3
What's left
Started with 1 bag of spinach. Half a bag left, a third of a bag already planned for breakfast.
Cooking takes the real amounts out. The next receipt puts them back. So when Tuna says two chicken breasts, there are two.

Some apps watch the dates. Some keep your recipes. Some count what you eat. Tuna does all of it around one shared pantry, so the food you buy gets eaten.
