Portionaro

The People Behind Portionaro

Portionaro was built by a small team of food enthusiasts and product developers based in Switzerland. We share a genuine interest in practical cooking and a belief that good kitchen tools should be accurate, simple, and accessible to everyone. Each member of the team contributes both technical expertise and real-world cooking experience to the product. We work closely with our users to improve Portionaro continuously based on actual kitchen needs.

Laura Steinmann

Co-Founder & Product Lead

Laura has spent over a decade working at the intersection of food culture and digital product design. She conceived Portionaro after repeatedly struggling to scale recipes for her supper club without introducing errors. She oversees the product roadmap and ensures every feature solves a genuine cooking problem.
