Welcome to Stokd: Cook with what you have

·2 min read·By The Stokd Team

We built Stokd because we kept throwing away food we meant to use.

Sound familiar? A half-used can of coconut milk. Vegetables going soft in the back of the crisper. Spices you bought for one recipe and never touched again.

The problem isn't that you don't want to cook — it's that you don't know what you can cook with what you already have.

What Stokd does

Stokd is a pantry and recipe app that answers one question: what can I cook right now?

Here's how it works:

  1. Add your pantry — scan a barcode, snap a receipt photo, or add items manually. Stokd learns your kitchen.
  2. Get matched recipes — every recipe shows a percentage match based on what you actually have. A 94% match means you're one ingredient away.
  3. Cook and restock — mark a recipe as cooked and Stokd automatically updates your pantry. Need something? It goes straight to your shopping list.

Why this matters

The average American household throws away nearly $1,500 worth of food per year. Most of it isn't spoiled — it's just forgotten, or we don't know what to make with it.

Stokd bridges the gap between "I have food" and "I know what to cook."

What's coming

We're just getting started. Here's what's on our roadmap:

  • Meal planning — plan your week based on what you have
  • AI suggestions — get recipe ideas even for unusual ingredient combos
  • Android support — coming soon
  • Recipe sharing — share your Stokd recipes with friends

Download Stokd free

Stokd is free to download on the App Store. No account required to browse recipes — create one to save your pantry and sync across devices.

We'd love to hear what you think. Reach out at hello@stokd.pro or find us on Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok at @stokdapp.

Happy cooking. 🍳
