Because every supperhero has an origin story

Once upon a dinner time…

Matt and Alan met while building complex software for manufacturing companies—tools to manage rockets, robots, and really long spreadsheets. Glamorous stuff.

But back home, they faced a far more personal challenge: what are we making for dinner?

Both married to amazing cooks, they often found themselves in the kitchen too. Matt leaned into colorful, high-variety vegetarian meals, while Alan preferred quick, protein-packed Mexican dishes (he grew up on tacos, after all).

Despite different tastes, they shared a common struggle: cooking takes planning, and it's hard to do well consistently—especially when you're busy.

Each built their own prototype to solve this. Matt created a tool to help him and his wife plan meals together. Alan built one during grad school and pitched it at a startup weekend. But life got in the way, and those ideas sat on the shelf.

Years later, after leaving their previous company, they realized they'd both been cooking up the same idea all along. And with AI finally catching up to their vision, they knew it was time.

So they teamed up to create Supperhero—a smart, helpful tool to make everyday cooking easier for everyone. Whether you're just learning to cook or you're a seasoned kitchen hero, Supperhero is built to help you plan, prep, and share your culinary powers.
