In Tamil and Sanskrit, annam means food — the most sacred form of life itself. Tell us your body and goals; our dietitians craft a regional Indian meal plan that fits your life, not the other way around.
All with a real dietitian who knows your body, your goals, and your favourite dish — delivered the way that suits your kitchen.
A consultative journey — not a checkout funnel. Like a real dietitian would walk you through.
Height, weight, activity, allergies, favourite dishes — and pick 3, 6 or 12 months. A 4-minute form.
We'll recommend tests for your dietitian. Upload existing reports — or book at partner labs nearby. We don't take a cut.
Your certified dietitian reviews everything and personally crafts a plan in your regional cuisine.
Chef-at-home, delivered meals, or recipes you cook yourself. Switch any time.
Weekly check-ins. Bi-weekly plan adjustments. Quarterly re-assessment. You evolve, your plan evolves.
Tests are recommended based on your medical history. Healthy users with no conditions can skip this step.
Most diets fail because they ignore real life. We start with your body, your kitchen-time and your taste — then handle the rest.
Every plan is reviewed and signed off by an MSc / RD-certified nutritionist. You talk to a human — not a chatbot.
Three ways to bring your plan to life. Your kitchen, your time, your budget — switch any time.
Meals cooked in FSSAI-licensed kitchens, packed in eco-containers, dispatched within 2 hours of cooking.
Tell us your 3 favourite dishes. Your dietitian builds them in. Eating healthy stops feeling like punishment.
8 regional cuisines — North & South Indian, Bengali, Gujarati, Maharashtrian, Punjabi, Multi-cuisine, Indo-Continental. The food you actually grew up eating.
Stuck on day 12? WhatsApp your dietitian or book a video consult. Real humans, fast replies.
We don't just plan diets — we operate a network of FSSAI-certified cloud kitchens that prep your meals fresh, in real time. Cooked in 2 hours. Packed in eco-containers. Delivered hot.
Hygiene audited monthly.
Cooked → packed → out.
Bagasse + paper, no plastic.
Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore +.
All plans include the dietitian-built diet, ongoing dietitian access and your chosen service mode — with no surprise pricing. Longer commitments unlock deeper results. Pricing is shared transparently during your dietitian consult — based on your goals, city and meal frequency.
3-month plan · Best for trial
6-month plan · Best results
12-month plan · Lasting change
Why no price on this page? Pricing in nutrition isn't one-size-fits-all. It depends on your goals, your city, how many meals a day, and which service mode (chef / delivered / recipes) you choose. Your dietitian gives you a real, honest quote during your consult — not a generic figure to lure you in.
₹199 dietitian consult · refunded against any plan you choose.
Step 1 of 4 · We use this to calculate your daily energy needs (BMR + TDEE).
Based on your metrics, this is your starting point and the lifestyle changes that will multiply the impact of your diet plan.
Designed for your activity level and goal. Adjust intensity as you progress.

Recovery day
≈ 6.5 km walking. Stand & move once an hour at your desk; take stairs whenever possible.
Add 1 hour of sleep nightly. Sub-7 hour sleep raises cortisol and slows fat loss by ~25%.
3 cups of green/herbal tea allowed. Limit caffeine after 4 PM. Cap alcohol to 2 drinks/week during transformation.
Finish dinner by 8 PM, breakfast after 8 AM. Improves insulin sensitivity.
20–30g protein per meal preserves muscle and reduces cravings.
Drops post-meal blood sugar by up to 30%. Especially after dinner.
10 min morning sunlight resets circadian rhythm and improves sleep.
Daily fluctuations are misleading. Same day, same time, weekly.
Planned, not impulsive. Prevents binge cycles and protects adherence.
Vegetarian · 1,650 kcal/day · 3 meals delivered · Goal: −10 kg in 24 weeks. Your dietitian will personalise everything after the consult.
Calculated using Mifflin-St Jeor BMR × 1.375 activity factor, with a 22% deficit safe for your profile.
Three ways to bring your plan to life. Pick the one that fits your home, time, and budget. You can change it any time.
Our trained cook arrives at your home with fresh ingredients and prepares the day's meals — exactly the way you like them.
Cooked fresh in our partner cloud kitchens, delivered hot to your door — 1, 2 or 3 times daily on the schedule that fits you.
Get your fully personalised diet as detailed recipes — ingredient lists, step-by-step cooking, plate photos. You cook. We coach.
Mix & match across days too — chef on weekdays, recipes on weekends. Your dietitian can build hybrid plans.
A 30-min consult to fine-tune your plan to your body, goals, and what you love eating. ₹199 is fully credited if you subscribe.
Your dietitian, meal plan, progress tracking, and reports — all in one place. Sign in to continue.

Our Year-1 targets
India has millions of women who cook brilliantly at home but have no path to monetise it. Annam exists to change that.
The hardest part of running a kitchen is cooking food people love — and you've been doing that for years. We just bring the structure, customers, and certification.
You don't need a commercial space. Most of our kitchen partners start in their own home kitchen with a few hygiene upgrades. No rent, no commute, no bosses.
You don't market, advertise, or fight Swiggy/Zomato fees. Our app sends you orders matched to your cuisine and capacity — every day.
No royalty, no upfront brand fee, no exclusivity. You keep your kitchen, your name, your independence. We share revenue, not control.
Every kitchen is reviewed and approved by management before going live. We protect quality — both for customers and for the brand of our partner kitchens.
Earn ₹40k–₹1.2L+ per month based on orders. Paid every Friday to your bank account or UPI. Transparent dashboard, no hidden cuts.
Here's the six-step journey we're designing for kitchen partners. Roughly four to six weeks from approval to going live.
5-minute application. Tell us about your cooking experience, kitchen space, and the cuisines you specialise in.
30-minute video call with our partnerships team. We understand your goals, answer questions, share investment estimates.
Free on-site visit by our hygiene team. We list what's needed: equipment, layout tweaks, FSSAI paperwork. No surprise costs.
We help with FSSAI licence, equipment sourcing (at our negotiated rates), and a 3-day training on Annam recipes & hygiene.
Final review by our quality team. Approved kitchens go live; flagged ones get specific feedback and a re-audit. Approval is mandatory.
You go live on the Annam app. Orders start flowing. Your weekly payouts begin. Your dietitian-approved kitchen is in business.
When we launch, kitchen partners will focus on the food. We'll handle the rest of running a business.
We help you secure your FSSAI Registration or State Licence. End-to-end paperwork support — most kitchens get licenced in 15–20 days.
Our negotiated rates with vendors save you 15–25%. We handle delivery, installation, and basic warranties.
Our chefs and dietitians train you on Annam recipes, portion sizes, hygiene SOPs, and order-management software.
Bagasse boxes, paper sleeves, branded labels — delivered weekly at wholesale rates.
Our delivery partners pick up from your kitchen. You don't talk to customers, riders, or apps — just cook.
Order list, daily tasks, earnings tracker, payout history. Available on any phone.
Free quarterly hygiene audits, on-call support, monthly kitchen-partner meetups in your city.
Paid every Friday to your bank or UPI. Transparent line-by-line breakdown. No hidden cuts.
We welcome all applicants. But we built this programme thinking specifically about home-makers and women entrepreneurs — because cooking is something India's mothers, grandmothers, and homemakers have always done at world-class level, without ever being paid for it.
Earn meaningfully without leaving home or family responsibilities
Lower-risk path than opening a restaurant — no rent for the cuisine, no marketing
If people regularly tell you "you should sell this" — this is the answer
Decades of culinary skill, looking for a flexible income source
Convert your existing business into a steadier, branded operation
A franchise charges an upfront brand fee (₹15–50 lakh typically) plus ongoing royalty (5–15% of revenue) and binds you to strict operational rules. Our programme has zero brand fee, zero royalty — only a transparent revenue share on each order we send you. You keep your independence, your kitchen name, and can leave anytime with 30 days notice.
Annam takes 28–35% of each order's value, depending on cuisine complexity and city. The rest goes to you to cover ingredients, packaging, gas, electricity, and your earnings. We disclose the exact percentage during the discovery call. As you scale, the share trends to the lower end of that range — better margins for committed kitchens.
We help you apply for Mudra loans (up to ₹10 lakh, low interest) and Stand-Up India loans (specifically for SC/ST/women entrepreneurs, up to ₹1 crore). Most kitchen-partners use a mix of personal savings + Mudra. Our team walks you through the paperwork.
One bad kitchen can ruin Annam's reputation for thousands of customers. Our quality team reviews every kitchen — hygiene, equipment, recipe execution, packaging — before activation. No kitchen receives orders until management approval is granted. If something doesn't meet standards, we tell you exactly what to fix and re-audit free of charge.
Absolutely yes — our programme is open to everyone. We highlight the women-entrepreneur angle because India's home cooks are predominantly women whose talent is structurally undervalued, and we want to fix that. But the application process and economics are identical regardless of gender.
Currently active: Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Hyderabad. Launching in 2026: Chennai, Delhi NCR, Kolkata. If you're outside these cities, you can still apply — we'll add you to the waitlist and prioritise expansion based on demand.
Starter kitchens (30–60 meals/day): typically 4–5 hours, mostly during lunch and dinner prep windows. Pro kitchens (150+ meals/day): 7–9 hours with one or two helpers. You set your daily capacity in the vendor app — if you can only cook 30 meals on a given day, we won't send you 50.
Applications open in early 2027. Join the waitlist now and be the first to know — plus get priority audit slots when we launch.

These Terms of Service govern your use of Annam — our website, mobile applications, dietitian consult service, meal subscription plans, and partner cloud-kitchen network. By creating an account, paying for a consult, or subscribing to any plan, you agree to these Terms.
You must be at least 18 years old to use Annam. By using the service you confirm you can enter into a binding contract under Indian law. We may refuse service to anyone for any lawful reason.
Annam delivers three things:
This is important. Annam dietitians provide guidance on diet, lifestyle, and food choices based on the information you share. Our service is not a substitute for medical care. If you have a diagnosed health condition (diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disorder, food allergies, pregnancy, etc.), you must inform your dietitian, continue care with your own doctor, and not make medication or treatment changes based on our guidance. In an emergency, contact your local healthcare provider immediately.
Dietitian consultation (₹199): Paid at the time of booking. If you upgrade to a monthly plan within 30 days, the ₹199 is fully credited toward your first month's bill. If you don't subscribe, the ₹199 is non-refundable (it pays for the dietitian's time).
Subscription plans: Billed monthly in advance. You can cancel anytime; cancellations take effect at the end of your current paid billing month. We do not pro-rate or refund a billing month already paid for.
Refund eligibility: Full refund of an unused billing month if (a) Annam fails to deliver promised meals for 5+ days in that month, or (b) you have a documented medical reason that prevents you from continuing. Refunds are processed within 7 working days.
Failed deliveries: If a delivery fails due to our error, we'll re-deliver or credit your account for that meal.
All Annam-certified cloud kitchens are FSSAI-registered and audited by us. We take every reasonable measure to prevent cross-contamination and follow the dietary restrictions you list in your profile. However, we cannot guarantee a 100% allergen-free environment. If you have a severe allergy, you must declare it explicitly and consult your doctor before subscribing. Annam's liability for allergic reactions is limited as set out in clause 11.
Meal delivery is currently available in select cities. We'll confirm serviceability before you subscribe. Delivery times are estimates and may be affected by weather, traffic, or local conditions. We don't deliver on declared public holidays unless specifically communicated.
All content on Annam — recipes, meal plans, articles, branding, and software — is owned by us or licensed to us. You may use it for your personal benefit while subscribed. You may not copy, redistribute, or commercialize any of it without written permission.
You can close your account anytime by emailing hello@annam.life. We can suspend or terminate accounts for breach of these Terms, abuse of our team, fraud, or non-payment. On termination, any unused but pre-paid balance is refunded after deducting amounts owed.
Our total liability for any claim related to the service is limited to the amount you paid Annam in the three months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be excluded under Indian law (including liability for gross negligence or willful misconduct).
We may update the service, pricing, or these Terms as our business evolves. Material changes will be notified by email 30 days in advance. Continued use of the service after the change date means you accept the updated Terms. If you don't accept, you can cancel without penalty.
These Terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute will be resolved in the courts of Bengaluru, Karnataka. Before any litigation, both sides agree to attempt good-faith resolution by writing to hello@annam.life for at least 30 days.
