Plan meals. Waste nothing.

Your fridge
shouldn't be
a graveyard.

Every week, good food goes forgotten, spoils, and ends up in the bin. Not because people don't care — but because there was no plan. Platillo gives you that plan.

Free to use. No credit card required.

The reality

1 in 3

meals worth of food

produced globally is never eaten. Every single day.

$1,500

per household per year

thrown away in food the average family bought but never used.

8–10%

of global emissions

are caused by food waste — more than the entire aviation industry.

Most of this doesn't happen at farms or factories. It happens at home, in fridges, one forgotten ingredient at a time. And most of it is avoidable with a simple habit: planning what you are going to eat before you buy it.

The difference a plan makes

A small weekly habit with a real impact — on your wallet and the planet.

Without a plan

You shop by instinct and forget half of what you already have.
Vegetables wilt. Leftovers get pushed to the back.
Thursday night you order delivery because nothing matches.
Sunday you throw out what didn't get used. Again.

With Platillo

You plan seven days of meals before setting foot in a store.
Your shopping list is built from real recipes — exact amounts, nothing extra.
Every ingredient has a purpose. Everything gets used.
Sunday the fridge is nearly empty. On purpose.

How it works

Friendly technology built around your week

01

Build your meal library

Add the meals your household loves and link each one to its real ingredients and amounts. Start from a curated set or build from scratch. You only do this once.

02

Plan your week in minutes

Drag meals into your morning, noon, and night slots across the whole week. A complete plan takes under five minutes and removes every "what's for dinner?" moment.

03

One shopping list. Exactly what you need.

Tap "Create list" and we collect every ingredient across all your meals, merge duplicates, and sum the quantities. You arrive at the store knowing precisely what to buy.

04

Check off as you shop

Your shopping list works offline. Tap items as they go in the basket. No paper, no screenshots, no forgotten tabs. Everything syncs to your device.

Why this exists

We believe small decisions compound into real change.

You don't have to march in a protest or change careers to make the world better. Wasting less food is one of the highest-impact things an individual can do for the climate — and it also saves you money while making you eat better.

We built Platillo because we wanted a tool that was simple enough to actually use every week, not one that requires a nutrition degree or an hour of setup. Plan your week. Buy what you need. Use what you buy.

If every household planned just three more meals per week:

Global food waste could drop by an estimated 20%.
The average family would save over $600 per year.
Greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to taking millions of cars off the road would be avoided.
Less demand for unnecessary production means less land, water, and energy used.
