FMCG brands spend millions trying to reach shoppers, but they're missing the moment that matters most, when people are planning what to cook and deciding what to buy.

We get grocery products into shopping trolleys and onto kitchen counters.

We connect brands with engaged grocery shoppers at the exact moment they're making purchase decisions. We don't just inspire: we drive trial, educate on new occasions, and turn recipe views into real sales. And unlike every other marketing channel, we can prove it.

What we deliver:

Recipes+: Strategic recipe placements that get food products purchased and into people's homes
Insights: Consumer behaviour data that fuels smarter marketing and identifies new product opportunities
Stock Checker: Real-time availability tracking across major retailers

We've cracked what the industry couldn't: recipe marketing that actually drives sales.

For too long, marketers have been stuck as the "cost centre" responsible for driving sales, finding customers, building awareness, and launching products, but without the tools to prove impact. We've built the performance platform that changes everything.

Finally, marketing that marketing teams can prove works.

We're 16 people across NZ and Sydney, moving fast with big ambitions. We need great people to help scale our customer success as we grow.
