Common questions

The supermarkets’ own publicly listed shelf prices — Woolworths, Pak’nSave and New World — via the independent grocer.nz project, updated regularly. Prices are indicative: actual shelf prices vary by store and change often, so treat totals as close estimates — that’s why they’re shown with ≈.

Yes. A list of ingredients can’t be copyrighted, and Pottle only reads the facts — ingredients, amounts, times — then writes the method in its own words, into your private cookbook. It never copies anyone’s writing or photos, and nothing you save is published anywhere. It’s the digital version of copying a recipe into your own notebook.

We don’t sell it and we don’t run ads — Pottle is funded only by the subscription. Your recipes, plan and shopping list are private to your account. See our Privacy Policy for the detail.

Free for 7 days from signup — no card needed to start. After that it’s $19.90 per month or $99 per year. Cancel anytime.

No. You set your goal once, and the engine sizes every meal’s portions to match. If a day runs light or heavy, tap “Fix my macros” and Pottle suggests simple food fixes — a topping to add, a portion to trim, a swap — and you confirm the ones you like. You can look at the numbers whenever you want; you never have to count or log anything.

Plates are sized to your own target, and every recipe also shows the full “serves N” amounts for cooking for the household. A companion Pottle app for the whole household is on the way — same cookbook, meals for everyone, no macros — and one subscription gives you both.
