P.L.A.I.N. Health Prompts

Ask AI the right questions

Ready-made, plain-language prompts for talking with AI about nutrition, mental health, pharmacy, insurance, caregiving, and more. Answer a few quick questions and get a prompt built for your exact situation.

P.L.A.I.N. Pantry

Can it, store it, keep it safe

Safe canning times, headspace, and processing steps straight from National Center for Home Food Preservation and USDA guidance, plus quick shelf-life checks for groceries, pantry staples, and leftovers.

P.L.A.I.N. Safe Rx

Building confidence with your medicine label

Tap any part of a prescription label to hear it explained in plain language — built for double-checking a label before you call the pharmacist.

P.L.A.I.N. Checkout

Know what's covered before you buy

Check whether an item is covered under SNAP/EBT and Washington's Basic Food rules before it reaches the register, with exact scripts if something gets flagged at checkout.
