Mike Perry founded AislePrompt to close the gap between recipes on the internet and the grocery cart in your kitchen. He writes the AislePrompt blog — meal-planning playbooks, structured-diet guides (keto, Whole30, Mediterranean), and kitchen buying guides — with the same practical, home-cook-first perspective the app itself was built around.
Before AislePrompt, Mike spent a decade in recipe-data engineering — mapping ingredient lists to retailer catalogs, building the UPC and generic-name plumbing that lets a single recipe ship to Instacart, Target, Walmart, or Costco without the user picking a store. The blog reflects that background: every diet guide traces its macro claims to USDA FoodData Central, every "best of" list is scored against actual retail availability, and every meal-prep plan can be sent to Instacart in one tap.
