## Description

Turn receipts into recipes! Track pantry & expiry dates, cut waste, and discover AI-powered meal ideas. Zesto makes groceries smarter - save time, save food.

Zesto is your smart kitchen companion. Scan grocery receipts in seconds, auto-extract items and prices, track your pantry and expiry dates, and get AI-powered recipes based on what you already have. Spend less time managing food and more time enjoying it.

Why you’ll love it:

1. Scan & Parse Receipts: Fast OCR to turn paper receipts into structured items with no manual typing.
2. Pantry & Expiry Tracking: See what’s in stock, quantities, categories, and upcoming expirations at a glance.
3. AI Recipes From Your Pantry: Personalized ideas that use ingredients you already own, with steps and nutrition.
4. Smart Shopping Lists: Generate lists from recipes or low-stock items and check them off at the store.
5. Store Finder: Locate nearby grocery stores and get directions with integrated maps.
6. Optional Sync: Use the app fully on-device; sign in only if you want cloud sync across devices.

Under the hood:

Built with SwiftUI and a modern architecture for speed and reliability. On-device data uses SwiftData; image processing uses Apple’s Vision framework; AI parsing and assistant features leverage secure APIs; location powers the store finder.

Privacy:

1. Core features work without an account.
2. Camera access is used to scan receipts; Photos access is used if you import an image.
3. Location is used to show nearby stores.
4. Data is stored on-device with optional cloud sync if you sign in.
