Why Feastimator?
Potlucks are hard to size. Every host wants enough food, but vague assignments and guesswork often create duplicates, oversized trays, and avoidable leftovers. Feastimator gives the whole group one coordinated plan.
Plan for the people who are actually coming, including adults, children, portion preference, and the way your menu is structured.
See cooked quantities, grocery needs, equipment, preparation timing, and small, medium, and large tray alternatives in one place.
Share one link so signed-in guests can claim a specific dish and tray—and update their selection later.
How it works
A few thoughtful inputs replace group-chat guesswork with a plan everyone can understand.
Add the guest mix, meal timing, cuisines, number of dishes, portion style, and cooking preference.
Start with relevant dish suggestions, then add, replace, or remove anything. The full plan recalculates immediately.
Select a tray size for each dish and publish a simple sign-up sheet with the exact number of trays needed.
Quantity engine
Clear rules. Consistent results.
Built for trust
Feastimator may suggest dishes to help build your menu, but food quantities, grocery needs, and tray counts come from deterministic configuration and volume-based calculations—not from a generative AI guess.
When you change a dish, its popularity weighting, cooked amount, groceries, equipment, schedule, tray alternatives, and final sign-up sheet are recalculated together.
