Collect ready-to-cook recipes in a digital library
Say goodbye to bookmarked tabs, screenshots, and recipe cards scattered across your kitchen. Our recipe organizing app gives you a centralized cookbook that grows with your taste. Import recipes from any website with a single tap, customize them to your preferences, or craft original dishes with our intuitive recipe builder.
Create flavor-packed meal plans in half the time
Build balanced meal plans for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, then organize your shopping list by store and category. Adjust on the fly when plans change, and track your grocery budget with visual insights that help you save without sacrificing quality or flavor.
Spend less time preparing, and more time celebrating
Whether it’s an intimate dinner party or a holiday feast, The Gourmet Host Companion handles the logistics so you can focus on connection. Our event planner includes customizable timelines with pre-filled milestones, guest management with dietary preference tracking, specialized shopping lists for both food and decor, and a cost splitting calculator.
The Host Companion is the only complete recipe organization and event hosting app designed for home entertainers.
Our milestone system offers customized suggestions based on event type and guest count, automatically generating a checklist with the right sequence and timing, such as when to shop, prep, cook, and set up. Each milestone includes actionable tips, realistic time estimates, and optional reminders to keep your event on track without the stress.
Forgetting to arrange for extra plates? Last-minute store runs? Not around here. The Host Companion lets you link recipes directly to organized shopping lists, track décor needs, and ensure everything arrives on time for stress-free entertaining.
Don’t let unexpected guests or miscommunicated dietary restrictions throw a fork in your next gathering. Manage RSVPs, preferences, and follow-ups in one place, ensuring everyone feels welcomed and accommodated without the spreadsheet chaos.
Say goodbye to budget anxiety and awkward money conversations. Our cost splitter allows you to monitor event expenses in real-time, automatically split costs with your co-hosts, and generate summaries for future planning.
The Host Companion’s in-app browser makes it easy to save all your favorite recipes from any website, whether a food blog, culinary Substack, or magazine. Our team is working hard to develop a feature that allows you to bookmark your favorite recipes from social media, too. Join The Waitlist to hear about it first!
The current version of the app will be available for mobile iOS and Android devices. However, we will be releasing a desktop version shortly after, which will make it even easier to save, plan, and share your hosting plans on multiple devices. Join The Waitlist to be the first to hear about exclusive offers and app updates.
We’re not the first meal planning app, and we probably won’t be the last. But unlike other apps that focus on optimizing weekly meal prep and groceries, we also offer a range of features that cater to event and dinner party hosting. The Host Companion app is the only event hosting app where you’ll find event task and timeline tracking, menu design, event shopping lists, guest tracking, and a cost-splitting feature.
Our event-focused features are designed to help you embrace the art of gathering, and discover that it’s not that stressful to host a dinner for 8, especially when you have a virtual hosting companion by your side. Join The Waitlist.
The Host Companion recipe organizing app will be available for a low monthly or discounted annual subscription—less than what we save on groceries in two weeks from having an organized app to help us streamline the meal planning process. Join The Waitlist.
Nope! Our guest tracker is a versatile feature that allows you to manage your guest list and send invites, reminders, and updates to your guests via email. If they have the app, the messages can be sent in the app itself. If sent by email, guests will be directed to a landing page where they can RSVP and add a note for dietary restrictions or other specific accommodations. Join The Waitlist .
