Built by a parent who was tired of deciding.
I’m Justin Lubicich, and I built UnBizzy.
Dinner was never the hard part in our house. Deciding was. What do we already have? Who will actually eat it? Which night is practice, and which night is someone working late? What goes on the grocery list, and which store is it from? None of those questions is hard on its own. Together, every day, they wear you down. It’s hundreds of small decisions a week, and they all land at the end of a long day.
So I set out to build something that takes those decisions off your plate without taking away your say. My own family plans with it every week.
What we’re trying to do
Plan the way real families eat.
The dinners in UnBizzy are the ones families actually cook on a weeknight, not a recipe-site project. Burgers count. Leftovers count. A night off is a plan, not a gap.
Plan ahead, so the week runs itself.
You plan when it suits you. Then there’s one grocery list sorted by store, and a nudge when it’s time to start dinner.
Keep your say.
Tell it what you want, put your own recipes on the menu, or let it do the thinking. When a recipe came from a link, it opens the original site when it’s time to cook, so the person who wrote it gets the visit.
Be honest about what software can’t do.
It plans around your allergies, but it can’t read the label in your hand, and we’d rather say that plainly.
Ask for as little as possible.
Nicknames and age ranges, not last names and birthdays.
Nothing to sell you.
We don’t take money from grocery stores or brands, so the plan is about your table, not anyone’s shelf.
Where it’s going
UnBizzy is young, and we’re improving it all the time: the features you use every week, and new ones the families using it ask for. Here’s what we’re working on. If something’s missing, confusing or just wrong, tell me. The families using UnBizzy now are shaping what it becomes.
