Peristyle Grocery Cart: Recipe to cart.

When a reader asks their assistant to shop a dish, Peristyle matches each ingredient to a real product, fills the cart, and credits the sale to you. And while they cook, that same chat answers questions in real time, straight from your recipe. You keep control of your work and see the analytics behind every cart.

Kroger and Walmart. The reader confirms every item before checkout; nothing is bought without them.

Plugins for the community.

Peristyle websites are built on top of EmDash, a 'spiritual successor' to WordPress. It has everything that made WordPress great plus what is needed to thrive on the web today. Three of the first plugins offered for free:

  • Video to Recipe

    Paste a link, get a draft recipe.

    Drop in a public Instagram or TikTok URL and the plugin reads the caption into ingredients and numbered steps, pulls in the post's own image, and saves it as an editable draft.

    • Reads public Instagram and TikTok posts
    • Parses ingredients and steps from the caption
    • Lands as a draft to edit, never auto-published
  • Recipes

    Structured recipes, built for search and cooking.

    Adds recipe fields, a three-column cooking layout, and Schema.org data so search engines show your recipe as a rich result. Step timers keep running while readers cook.

    • Prep, cook, and rest times, servings, and difficulty
    • Recipe rich-result data for search engines
    • Floating step timers with audio and notifications
  • Grocery Cart Widget

    A cooking companion on every page of your site.

    Puts the Peristyle concierge on your blog. Readers can chat for real-time help while they cook your recipes, send the ingredients to a Kroger or Walmart cart, or both, with every sale credited to you.

    • Real-time cooking help, answered from your recipes, never invented ones
    • Ingredients matched to real Kroger and Walmart products, reviewed before anything is added
    • Runs in an isolated frame, so ads and analytics never touch reader data

Ads, AI content fees, and affiliate commissions can all run at once, or just the ones that makes sense for you. You set the rules; Peristyle can handle the present and the future.

  • Change density and placement whenever you like
