    One control, every quantity

    The serving control sits at the top of every recipe. Tap + or − and the entire ingredient list rewrites itself in place. No modal, no "recalculate" button, no waiting.

    Want to bake a single loaf instead of three? Halve a meal-prep recipe down to dinner-for-two? It's a single tap.

    Quantities scale, not the recipe

    The scaling pass touches numbers and units, never instructions. "Whisk for 30 seconds" stays the same whether you're feeding two or twenty — only the amounts change.

    Items without measurements ("a pinch of salt", "to taste") stay untouched, because that's how cooks actually use them.

    Smart fractions, sensible rounding

    No 0.6667 cups of milk. We render quantities as kitchen-readable fractions — ½, ⅓, ¾, 1¼ — and round at the precision that actually fits a measuring cup.

    Where a unit conversion makes more sense than a fraction (8 tbsp instead of ½ cup, say), we offer it as a tap.

    Cook for any table size.

    Open a recipe, tap +/−, and the ingredients adjust around you.
