An independent software company
Small software company. Very good dog.
Lucky Dog Software builds patient, honest apps for the household — starting in the kitchen. We’re named for a rescue dog whose story sets our bar: no tricks, no data held hostage, nobody given up on.
Our apps — the family so far

Lucky Dog Recipes
The family cookbook, rewritten for the way you actually cook. Photograph a cookbook page or a handwritten card and AI turns it into a clean, structured recipe. Plan the week as menus, shop from shared grocery lists, and cook from any screen in the house.
Coming soon · iPhone · iPad · Mac
Lucky Dog Maps
Trip planning and navigation for RVs, adventure vans, and overlanding rigs. Plan multi-day itineraries around a daily drive budget, find community-reported boondock sites and campgrounds, and navigate to tonight's camp — maps work fully offline. Building Lucky Dog Recipes taught us how a household runs; this one follows the household out the driveway.

Lucky Dog Log
A log of everything your dog does — pee, poop, food, water, walks, medicine, vaccines, weight — that learns each dog's rhythm and reminds you before you'd have thought to check. Photograph a vet's receipt and AI turns it into entries. A dog belongs to a family: everyone in it sees every dog and can log for them, one invitation covers the lot, and a sitter can be given one dog and no other. Recipes feeds the household and Maps takes it on the road; this one looks after the member who can’t keep a diary of his own.
How we build — the Lucky standard
Three promises, kept in every app we ship.
Promise one
Patient, not pushy
No dark patterns, no nagging, no engagement tricks. Good software waits politely by the door until you need it.
Promise two
Your data is yours
Export everything, delete anything, nothing held hostage. The things you entrust to our apps — recipes, plans, family traditions — are heirlooms, and they stay yours.
Promise three
Every screen in the house
Native apps where they matter, the web everywhere else, and one honest sync between them. The kitchen iPad counts as much as the phone in your pocket.
“Nobody gave up on Lucky. We build software for people to be treated that well.”
