The Restaurant Picker That Learns Your Taste

NomBot gives you three personalized nearby picks every time you spin. Unlike a random restaurant wheel that treats every tap the same, NomBot learns your taste over time and gets better the more you use it. It is free to download on iOS.

What makes NomBot different

Most "restaurant pickers" are random wheels or shuffled lists. They have no memory. Spin twice and you might get the same mediocre place you skipped last week. NomBot does the opposite: it learns your taste over time and gets sharper with use, so the picks lean toward what you tend to go for instead of treating every tap the same.

Every spin gives you three picks, not one, so you have options without being overwhelmed. The more you use it, the better it reflects your real preferences instead of a generic average.

How NomBot works

1. Open the app and tap spin. NomBot reads your location and pulls nearby restaurants that look open right now based on current hours data.
2. You get three picks. Each one matches filters you have set: cuisine preferences, distance, and meal type.
3. Tap a pick to see the details and head out. Or spin again if none of the three land.
4. The more you spin, the more NomBot learns your taste, so the picks keep getting better suited to you over time.

There is no manual rating system to fill out. NomBot picks up your taste over time just from regular use.

What every spin guarantees

A few things hold true on every single spin, by design, not by luck. Each pick is open right now, checked against live hours the moment you tap, so you are not sent somewhere that already closed for the night. Each pick sits inside the distance you set, and nothing farther slips in. And no two of the three come from the same cuisine family, so you always get real range instead of three versions of the same thing. Every result also carries a one-line NomBot's Take that sums up the vibe, so you can read the room in a second instead of scrolling through a dozen reviews.

When it helps most

When you are worn out from deciding. Sometimes the mental overhead of picking a restaurant is more exhausting than the meal itself. One tap turns a blank slate into three concrete options, so you stop deliberating and start eating. For more on beating that end-of-day stall, see how to stop overthinking what to eat tonight.

When you are somewhere new. Drop into a city you do not know and you have no idea which streets have what. NomBot surfaces real nearby places that fit what you like, so you do not have to learn the local landscape first.

When you always default to the same spot. Falling back on the usual place is easy, but it gets old fast. A tiered recency penalty quietly rotates results across a 90-day history window, so the same few restaurants stop crowding out everything else.

When you just want something to react to. Open NomBot, tap spin, and respond to what comes up. Picking from three options is a fifteen-second decision; staring at the entire map is not.

Free tier and Pro

NomBot is free to download and use. The free tier gives you three spins per rolling 24-hour window. Each spin returns three nearby picks, open right now, from different cuisine families so you always get real range. Pro ($4.99 per month) unlocks two things: unlimited spins so the window never cuts you off, and Be Picky, which lets you choose a specific cuisine before you spin so every result matches what you are in the mood for. Founders ($49.99 one-time) is lifetime Pro access with the same two unlocks. Both tiers learn your taste the same way.

iOS first, Android coming

NomBot is live on the iOS App Store right now. Android support is in progress and will follow.
