About Forkyt: Boston's Restaurant Recommendation App

Why We Built This

Every restaurant app gives you the same list, no matter who you're eating with.

Date night with your partner, your parents visiting from out of town, or your friend who won't eat anything that isn't spicy — the recommendations don't change. That never made sense to us.

Boston has one of the best food scenes in the country, but finding the right spot for the right moment still means scrolling for twenty minutes, texting a group chat, or just defaulting to the same three restaurants you already know.

We built Forkyt to fix that.

What Forkyt Actually Does

Forkyt is an AI-powered restaurant recommendation app built for Boston. It learns what you like over time — not just cuisine and price point, but the kind of places you actually enjoy.

Here's the part that makes it different: you can add your friends, and when you're planning a meal together, Forkyt factors in everyone's taste, not just yours. Going out with a friend who loves trying new spots? You'll get pushed toward something adventurous. Taking your parents somewhere reliable? The recommendations shift accordingly.

The more you use it, the smarter it gets — for you, and for every group you're part of.

Why Boston, Why Now

We're starting here because we know this city. Boston's restaurant scene rewards people who actually know where to look, and we wanted to build something that reflects that — not a generic app that treats every city the same way.

We're early, and we're building this in public. That means the app will keep evolving, and we're actively looking for feedback from people who eat out in this city all the time.
