Why planners are switching in 2026
Serving caps are Mealime's most-cited limitation for bigger households and batch cooks — and in 2026 more of its free tier moved behind Mealime Pro, while updates slowed to recipe drops and bug fixes. Grocerplan's scaling engine portions every recipe, slot by slot, to however many people you're actually feeding, and the whole planning core is free forever, funded by affiliate commissions instead of subscriptions.
