How 4DK works / 001
The kitchen
doesn't reset.
You cook. You use things. You change recipes. People change their minds. The kitchen moves. 4DK moves with it.
4DK.FOR D KITCHEN.
01 / SEE
What do we
actually have?
Scan the fridge. Scan the receipt. Add it once. 4DK turns what it sees into actual kitchen state instead of making you babysit a list.

start with what's real.
02 / UNDERSTAND
Having chicken
isn't the answer.
Is it fresh? Opened? Frozen? Needs using tonight? Who's eating? What do they hate? Where are you? 4DK checks the things that actually change the answer.
FreshnessPersonal contextThe HouseLocation
Context changes the answer / tap a signal
Chicken = PRIORITY
It needs using first. That changes what 4DK should recommend before taste or novelty even enters the room.
context changes dinner.
THE RECIPE IS THE OUTPUT. THE KITCHEN IS THE SYSTEM.
03 / DECIDE
Okay. So what
makes sense now?
Not forty random recipes. What fits what you have, what needs using, how much time you have, who you're feeding and what you've already eaten this week.
Ask 4DKRecipe matchingNext-best meal
Why this?
Chicken is priority, tomatoes are already in the pantry, and you haven't had rice in the last few meals. It wins without needing a speech.
less guessing.
04 / COOK
Make it.
Change it if you want.
Swap panko for breadcrumbs. Air fry it. Add more pepper. If it worked, 4DK shouldn't act brand new the next time you make it.

05 / REMEMBER
Tomorrow shouldn't
start from zero.
Cooking changes pantry. Pantry changes freshness. Leftovers become food state. What worked becomes memory. The next recommendation starts from there.

Remembered
4DK knows this meal happened. Tomorrow it doesn't need to pretend the chicken is still there or suggest the same dinner again.
next time, better.
The loop / always on
The meal isn't
the end of the loop.
You cook something. The kitchen changes. 4DK records the useful parts and the next decision starts with more context than the last one. That's the point.
