Tell the chef
Say “something cozy with chicken” or “low-fat, Asian-ish.” The chef finds real recipes that fit and composes three fresh ideas grounded in them — complete with macro estimates, a nutrition label, and a photo of the dish.
Your private chef, on your phone
“Something cozy with chicken.” “Plan my week.” “A smoky mezcal cocktail.” The Recipeas chef pulls real recipes from a corpus of 4.3 million and composes ideas for you — privately, on your device.
Say “something cozy with chicken” or “low-fat, Asian-ish.” The chef finds real recipes that fit and composes three fresh ideas grounded in them — complete with macro estimates, a nutrition label, and a photo of the dish.
Ask for “3 dinners” or “plan my week” and get a multi-meal plan. One tap builds the grocery list; checking items off feeds your pantry so the chef knows what’s in your kitchen next time.
Tell it “my kitchen usually has rice, soy sauce, and eggs” and it cooks with that. Mark “I cooked this” and your history shapes what it suggests. Drinks too — cocktails and smoothies are first-class citizens.
Know the dish you want? Search the full corpus of real recipes from food sites around the world — in any language. Results show up in your phone’s language, with an “Original Version” toggle on every translated recipe.
The secret sauce
Every idea starts from real recipes. When you ask for something, Recipeas retrieves matching recipes from a corpus of 4.3 million real ones — scraped from food sites around the world, each with attribution and a link to the source — and riffs on them, so the flavors and techniques come from cooks who actually made the dish.
The composing happens on your device with Apple’s on-device model — your cravings, pantry, and cooking history never go to a cloud chatbot. Generation needs iOS 26; on earlier versions the chef answers with the real recipes directly.
Three tabs, no project management
Saved holds your bookmarks, the chef’s creations, your cooked history, and My Kitchen — the pantry the chef remembers. Search covers the whole corpus with course filters from mains and sides to desserts and drinks.
Tell the chef what you’re craving. It finds real recipes, plans your week, and builds the grocery list — all on your phone. Free, no account, iOS 17+ (chef generation uses Apple’s on-device model on iOS 26).
