Yakacook

Yakacook doesn’t replace your cookbooks — it helps you find them, index them, annotate them without scribbling, adjust portions… and gives you the best of both worlds: paper & digital!

(And here, no sneaky subscription draining your bank account every month.)

Haven’t you ever thought:

• “I’ve made this before, but there’s no way I can find the recipe again among all my cookbooks!”
• “I own so many beautiful cookbooks, but in the end I don’t even know what’s inside them.”
• “What could I cook with what I have?”
• [At the supermarket] “Wait… what ingredients did I need for this dish again?” …

Then discover your ideal kitchen companion: a custom mega-index of all your cookbooks and cooking websites, designed to make your life easier before and during your cooking sessions.

With Yakacook, find your favorite recipes by name, ingredients, affinities, and more. Create your own collections and organize your upcoming cooking sessions.

• Scan recipe pages (or websites) simply by taking a photo. Digitize your cookbooks and find them visually identical in the app, so you always know what the book containing a recipe looks like.
• Adjust quantities by number of servings — all ingredients update automatically.
• Annotate and personalize recipes without damaging your beautiful books. Perfect for making sure you buy the right quantities at the store (no one carries their whole cookbook library around… except you, thanks to Yakacook).
• Plan future cooking sessions. Fill your calendar, sync it with your shopping list, and on the big day… Ya-Ka-Cook!
• Manage your shopping list, automatically generated from selected recipes and optionally enriched with extra items. Share it with your roommate or partner, whether they use an iPhone or not.
• Find the exact book on your shelf by scanning it with your camera — the app will point it out for you. Cook more efficiently with a clean, synthetic view packed with practical tools — the perfect companion to your cookbook (or your favorite cooking website).
• Batch cook effortlessly. During a cooking session, swipe from one recipe to another, manage multiple timers at once, or add new recipes on the fly.
• Share your library and all your annotations across multiple users or devices.

So now… Ya-Ka-Cook*!
