  We present a minimal UV complete framework to embed inflation and dark matter
by extending the standard model with a singlet real scalar field (the inflaton)
and a singlet fermonic field acting as dark matter. The inflaton features the
most general renormalizable polynomial up to quartic order, which is flat due
to the existence of a perturbed inflection-point, comfortably fitting CMB
measurements. We also analyze (p)reheating by considering the Higgs production
via inflaton decay. In the early universe, dark matter can be generated by the
mediation of gravitons or inflatons. However, the production via the direct
decay of the inflatons dominates, making viable a large range of dark matter
masses, from $\mathcal{O}(10^{-5})$ GeV to $\mathcal{O}(10^{11})$ GeV.
