## Description
Open your fridge. Cook something great. Discover how food makes you feel.
CookSense is the AI cooking companion that turns whatever is already in your kitchen into delicious recipes — and helps you understand which meals truly fuel you.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🥦 SCAN YOUR FRIDGE — GET 3 RECIPES IN SECONDS
Stop staring at a full fridge wondering what to cook. Snap a photo of what you have, and CookSense's AI instantly identifies your ingredients and generates 3 personalised recipes you can actually make right now.
- Smart ingredient detection from a single photo
- Recipes built from what you already own — no shopping required
- Cuisine variety: Italian, Asian, Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and more
- Cook times, difficulty ratings, and step-by-step instructions
- Filters for halal, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free diets
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔄 SWAP ANY INGREDIENT INSTANTLY
Found a recipe online but missing one ingredient? Allergic to something? Out of butter? CookSense suggests 3 smart substitutions for any ingredient — with quantity adjustments and flavour impact ratings.
- Works with any recipe, not just ours
- Respects your dietary restrictions automatically
- Tells you exactly how the swap will change the dish
- Perfect for celiac, vegan, lactose-intolerant, and halal cooks
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🌙 DISCOVER YOUR FOOD-MOOD CONNECTION
This is what makes CookSense different. Log your meals, then check in 2 hours or your selected preference later on how you feel. Over time, CookSense reveals genuine patterns between what you eat and your energy, focus, and mood.
- Quick 2-hour or select mood check-ins after meals
- Beautiful weekly food-mood map showing your patterns
- AI-generated insights: "You consistently feel more energised after protein-rich meals"
- Track energy, mood, focus, and digestion over time
- No calorie counting. No food shaming. Just self-knowledge.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
♻️ ZERO FOOD WASTE
The average household throws away £1,000 of food every year. CookSense was designed to fight that. Every recipe starts from what you already have — meaning less waste, less spending, and more confident home cooking.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✨ WHY COOKSENSE IS DIFFERENT
- Built around your fridge — not a recipe database
- Privacy-first design — your meal photos are processed and discarded, not stored
- Beautiful dark-mode interface designed for kitchen use
- Works offline for your saved recipes
- No ads. No clutter. Just cooking.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
