Overview
Allspice is built as a long-term platform for food publishers and creators. We ship continuously, and this roadmap highlights major work currently in progress and what's coming next.
Timelines may shift as we prioritize reliability, performance, and publisher needs. If there's a feature you want prioritized, reach out through the Publisher Portal - we actively incorporate your feedback into roadmap planning.
Now (In Progress)
These items are actively being built and may roll out incrementally.
Pico v2.5
Continued development of Pico with stronger agentic behavior, better tool execution, and more reliable interactions across recipes, grocery lists, and cooking workflows.
Improved recipe parsing accuracy
Ongoing improvements to ingredient normalization, step mapping, and cross-site consistency to ensure recipes are interpreted correctly across a wide range of formats.
Meal planning system
Building structured meal planning flows that connect recipes, grocery lists, and pantry data into a cohesive planning experience.
Publisher Portal improvements
Expanding controls, improving usability, and adding more visibility into how Allspice behaves across pages and placements.
Deeper ad provider partnerships
Working more closely with major ad platforms to improve compatibility, reduce conflicts, and unlock better monetization opportunities.

Hubbub integrations
Integrating with Hubbub and similar platforms to make the integration process seamless.
Mobile experience improvements
Enhancing mobile layouts, interaction behavior, and cooking flows to better handle constrained screens, touch input, and complex ad environments.
Next
These are our next major initiatives after current in-progress work ships.
Publisher groups (multi-site search)
Enabling cross-site recipe discovery for publishers with multiple domains or creator networks, allowing users to search across combined content libraries.
Improved creator control over agent output
Giving publishers the ability to influence how chat responds, prioritizes content, and represents recipes within the Allspice experience.
Recipe adjustment in the Publisher Portal
Allowing publishers to edit or override parsed recipe data directly, including ingredients, steps, and structure.
A/B-tested button placements
Introducing systematic testing of CTA placement, labeling, and layout to improve engagement and conversion rates.
Advanced audience insights
Expanding analytics to include aggregated insights into user behavior, preferences, and engagement patterns across recipes and sessions.
Better guidance for caching and ad stacks
Improving documentation, onboarding checks, and diagnostics for common WordPress setups, including caching, optimization plugins, and ad providers.
Audience insights will always be designed to protect user privacy and avoid exposing user-level personal data.
Planned
These initiatives are confirmed directions but not yet scheduled for a specific release window.
Paid meal plans
Enabling creators to offer structured meal plans (free or paid), introducing a new subscription-style monetization model beyond ads.
Paywalled recipe support

Enhanced commerce flows
Expanding grocery integrations, improving cart attribution, and building better conversion tracking across shopping experiences.
Social creator pages with searchable recipe libraries
Creating hosted Allspice-powered pages where users can search and interact with a creator’s full recipe library.
Allspice web experience
Building a unified destination where users can access saved recipes, grocery lists, and cooking tools across all supported sites.
Cross-site user identity and persistence
Creating a seamless user experience across publishers, including saved recipes, preferences, and cooking history.
In-widget advertising system
Introducing native ad placements within the Allspice experience that integrate with publisher ad stacks while preserving usability.
