Watched my mom's old recipe box turn into a family AI app in just 3 months

She digitized her handwritten recipe cards into an app that uses AI to suggest ingredient swaps for allergies and it went from a mess of faded paper to something my sister uses every single day in Chicago, has anyone else tried turning a family archive into something smarter like that?

Did your friend end up scanning all those old recipe cards too or just the favorites?

Scanning everything seems like overkill for old recipes.

yo my aunt literally did the exact same thing with my grandma’s bread recipes last year @hannahs71 - we scanned like 200 cards and the app now tells you what to swap if you’re out of eggs or milk. it’s wild how something so simple saves my cousin in Austin from calling her every time she bakes.
