Ulam - Meal Planner

The Filipino meal planner you actually want to use. Plan a week's worth of ulam, save recipes from anywhere, and walk into the palengke with a grocery list already done. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Plan your week. Add recipes to almusal, tanghalian, hapunan, and meryenda slots. Scale servings up or down, swipe across days, and see which days are planned at a glance. • Save recipes from anywhere. Bookmark TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and food blogs straight from the iOS Share Sheet. Ulam auto-pulls the title, thumbnail, and (when available) the full ingredient list and steps. • 12 Filipino classics to start: adobong manok, sinigang na hipon, sisig, caldereta, bistek tagalog, nilagang baka, chicken curry, chopsuey, pinakbet, kare-kare, pancit bihon, and bicol express. Included on day one, with more added in updates. • Smart grocery list. Built automatically from your planned meals. Quantities aggregate across recipes (2 onions + 1 onion = 3). Filter by palengke section. Check off items as you shop. Works fully offline. • Tagalog + English search. Type "manok" or "chicken"; both find your chicken recipes. Search across everything you've saved and everything bundled. • Works offline. Once you have your recipes, the planner, search, and grocery list all work without signal. Perfect for the wet market. WHY ULAM One-time purchase. No ads. No subscriptions. No accounts. No newsletter signups. Pay once, use forever. Built local-first. Your meal plans, saved recipes, and grocery lists live on your phone — not in our cloud. Nothing syncs in the background. WHO IT'S FOR Home cooks who plan ahead. OFWs cooking ulam abroad and missing the staples. Anyone tired of the daily "Anong ulam?" decision. Anyone who's spent ₱500 on impulse buys at the palengke because there was no list. WHAT'S IN v1 • Weekly meal planner with four daily slots • 12 in-house Filipino recipes at launch (more added in updates) • Bookmark via iOS Share Sheet (TikTok, IG, YouTube, blogs) • Manual recipe entry (works with iOS keyboard dictation) • On-device recipe parsing (no servers, no data sent) • Smart grocery list with palengke-style grouping • Recipe servings scaler • ~600-ingredient bundled database (Tagalog + English) • Tagalog/English synonym search • Share a recipe via deep link WHAT'S NEXT Cooking mode, meal reminders, widgets, and a few other things we're already building.

Ulam only reaches the network when you ask it to. It fetches a link preview when you bookmark a recipe, or publishes a shareable page when you tap Share. We never attach an identifier to you. Mabuhay! Plan your week's ulam in minutes.
