March 9, 2026 Launching Simmerfy - AI Recipe Scanner That Customizes Any Recipe for Your Diet

Hey indie hackers! I'm excited to share what I've been building as a solo founder.

The Problem: I love cooking and finding new recipes online, but I have dietary restrictions. Every time I found a great recipe, I had to manually figure out substitutions for ingredients that didn't fit my diet. Multiply that by every recipe, every meal — it gets exhausting.

The Solution: Simmerfy (https://simmerfy.com) lets you scan any recipe URL and instantly customize it for your dietary needs using AI. Whether you're keto, vegan, gluten-free, or managing food allergies, Simmerfy adapts the recipe for you.

How it works:

  1. Paste any recipe URL

  2. 2. Select your dietary preferences

  3. 3. AI rewrites the recipe with smart substitutions

  4. 4. Save it to your personal recipe collection

What's included (all free):

  • AI-powered recipe scanning and customization

  • - Smart shopping list generator

  • - Meal planner

  • - Personal recipe library

Tech stack: Next.js 14, .NET 8 API, PostgreSQL, Tailwind CSS, Claude AI

I'm bootstrapped and self-funded, building this as a side project. Would love to hear your feedback and thoughts!
