We solve the question “What’s for dinner?” and make daily cooking easy with an app that converts any social media video into an intuitive, easy-to-follow and step-by-step recipe and lets you search for recipes by what’s already in your fridge. We all have to eat 3 times a day, yet many of us never learn how to cook for ourselves and grocery shop. We waste time and money and harm our health through poor food choices. The questions "What's for dinner?" and "What groceries should I buy?" can cause daily stress for many of us, and finding a good answer has you googling for hours. If we're being honest, most of us cook because we have to, not because we're Gordon Ramsey. So it's time for a suitable solution for us.
Noms makes daily cooking easy. We solve the question “What’s for dinner?” by automatically converting online cooking content into intuitive, easy-to-follow and step-by-step recipes. With the app, you can search for recipes by what’s in your fridge, customise recipes to suit your needs, swap ingredients you do not like or have, and display quantities in intuitive measurements (handfuls, spoons, etc.). You can cook these recipes with our easy-to-follow format that shows only essential information (no ads, long descriptions, or touching the phone). And, you can optimise your groceries to make more food with less money and zero waste.
We're a two-person team building this from zero and are excited to meet you and work with you! We're Austria-Bulgarian and French-Malaysian with a good load of experience working in the Nordic and Silicon Valley startup culture, so we cherish multicultural teams and making team members feel welcome.
We're raising funds this year and will expand the full-time team once we do. That being said, we're also looking for volunteers who could potentially join Noms as full-time team members in the future and be compensated accordingly. Other than that, we have experience working remotely and with freelancers and volunteers, value and create a friendly environment and don't believe in unnecessary calls or standup meetings. We just care about making cooking easier for our generation, and getting there as fast as we can.

Farmhut aims to address the challenges faced by small-scale farmers in accessing finance and insurance services. Many farmers lack a digital record of their farming activities, making it difficult for lenders to assess their creditworthiness. In addition, the high cost of traditional insurance products makes it difficult for farmers to protect their crops and livestock from natural disasters and other risks. Farmhut's platform provides APIs for financial institutions to assess and finance farmers, as well as tailored loan products and insurance cover at affordable rates. The platform also provides farmers with a user-friendly interface to manage their financial and insurance needs.
Farmhut provides accessible and customizable financial solutions for small-scale farmers through APIs and tailored loan products. By leveraging technology and partnerships with financial institutions and insurance companies, Farmhut helps farmers access financial services that were previously unavailable to them. The platform also offers a user-friendly dashboard for lenders to manage their loans effectively, making the lending process more efficient and cost-effective. Through these efforts, Farmhut aims to bridge the funding gap and improve financial inclusion for small-scale farmers, ultimately helping to alleviate poverty and promote sustainable agriculture.
