Aromi Reinvents Kitchen Storage with AI-Connected Jars
We had the pleasure of speaking with the creator behind Aromi smart kitchen system, a minimalist, AI-powered kitchen system that’s poised to change the way we manage food at home. More than just smart jars, Aromi is a full ecosystem designed to help reduce waste, plan meals, and take the guesswork out of cooking. In this conversation, we unpack how the project went from everyday frustration to elegant tech.
The Birth of Aromi: Where Smart Living Meets Real Kitchens
Aromi brings together scent, AI, and sleek design. What inspired you to create a diffuser that goes beyond aromatherapy?
Actually, Aromi isn’t a diffuser—it’s something much more practical and powerful. Aromi is a smart kitchen system made up of AI-connected storage jars and tags designed to reduce food waste, track ingredient levels, and help you cook smarter. The idea started with something many of us experience: forgetting what’s in the pantry, buying things we already have, or throwing out expired food. That’s where the vision for Aromi came in—to bring intelligence into everyday storage, so kitchens could be not just smart, but sustainable and stress-free.
Personalizing Kitchen Wellness with AI
The AI scent advisor suggests blends based on user goals. How does this technology work, and why was it important to personalize the scent experience?
Aromi doesn’t use scent—it uses AI to personalize food management. Through our app, users get real-time updates on what’s running low, what’s about to expire, and even personalized recipe suggestions based on what they already have. The AI helps create healthier, less wasteful cooking routines by learning your usage patterns. It’s about turning food storage into a smart system that supports your goals—whether that’s eating better, spending less, or wasting less.
Designed for the Modern Kitchen Experience
Aromi looks nothing like a typical kitchen tool. What drove the minimalist design—and how does the app tie everything together?
We wanted Aromi to feel elegant, not technical—something you’d proudly display in your kitchen, not hide in a drawer. But what really brings it to life is the Ezurah app, which connects seamlessly with every jar and tag. The app tracks what you have, reminds you when ingredients are about to expire, and even suggests recipes based on what’s already in your kitchen. You can plan meals, build smart grocery lists, and even monitor nutrition goals—all without manually logging anything. It’s like having a smart assistant in your kitchen, working quietly in the background to make food planning easier and more mindful.
Creating Smarter Food Habits, Not Just Tools
You emphasize “scent rituals” throughout the campaign. How can scent-based routines help people with productivity, sleep, or emotional balance in everyday life?
Aromi isn’t about scent—it’s about kitchen habits that improve your life. We believe better routines start with small, meaningful changes. When your jars can remind you what to use before it expires, suggest meals based on what you already have, and automatically sync with your shopping list—it creates a system that supports your day-to-day. It’s not just about managing ingredients; it’s about building smarter, more sustainable food habits.
From Idea to Launch: The Journey Behind Aromi
What was the biggest challenge in bringing Aromi to life—and what are you most excited for backers to experience?
One of the biggest challenges was building something that looks simple, but does a lot behind the scenes. We had to balance design, hardware, and AI—all while keeping it intuitive. The idea came from my own experience as a busy parent and a product designer—I was tired of guessing what was in the fridge or throwing out forgotten groceries. I knew there had to be a better way. What excites me most now is seeing backers use Aromi in their homes—not as a gadget, but as something that genuinely makes their kitchen smarter, healthier, and more mindful.
Thank you to the Aromi team for sharing the story behind their intelligent kitchen system. By blending smart design with practical features, Aromi isn’t just about jars and tags—it’s about creating healthier routines and making kitchens more efficient, one meal at a time.
