Cook

Recipes made simple.

A personal recipe library and hands-free cooking companion, with every AI feature running entirely on-device.

About Cook

Cook turns anything into a recipe you can actually cook from. Share a post from Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, or Safari and it's parsed into clean, structured steps. Point the camera at a cookbook or a handwritten card and the ingredients and method fill themselves in. Paste raw text and it gets organised properly.

The cooking experience is built for the counter, not the couch: one step at a time, timers on any step that needs them, photos you snap as you go — shown back to you at the matching step the next time you make the same dish. Sessions resume exactly where you left them, and your library syncs across devices through iCloud.

Every AI feature runs entirely on your device. Recipes are never sent to a server, and there's no account to create — Cook uses the Apple ID and iCloud you already have.

The full recipe library, manual recipe creation, and guided cooking with timers are free with no limits. Cook Pro unlocks cooking history, session photos, notes, and AI camera scanning as a single one-time purchase — no subscription.
