01
Name what you have
Type a comma-separated list of fridge and pantry ingredients. Unrecognized phrases stay visible so you can correct them.
How it works
From pantry list to dinner plan
The finder starts with the ingredients you name, then narrows the catalog to recipes that are close enough to be useful.
02
Set the evening
Choose a time limit and an optional mood. Both help sort the recipes that already match your ingredients.
03
Choose a recipe
See what you have, what is missing, and the ingredients and steps when you open a card.

Recipe finder questions
How ingredients, time, mood, and Jev fit together.
How does the recipe finder choose picks?+
Coverage is code: a recipe must match at least half of its required ingredients and fit your time limit. The finder then sorts close matches by what you have, time, and mood. When Jev is connected, Jev is the model that scores fit among those candidates.
What does Jev do here?+
Jev scores whether a candidate sounds like a fit for your time and mood. It never decides whether your ingredients are present or sufficient. Ingredient coverage stays in the built-in checklist, and if Jev is unavailable the result says it was matched by ingredients.
Can I use the finder without Jev?+
Yes. The built-in ingredient checklist still finds recipes and tells you what is missing. Jev adds a fit score when it is connected, but it is not needed to use the finder.
What happens to what I type?+
What you type is sent to our server and, when Jev is on, through OpenRouter to TypeSafe AI to score options, and it is not stored. Ingredient phrases are used only to find the recipes for this request.
Why did the finder not show a recipe?+
The catalog keeps recipes that match at least half of their required ingredients. Add a protein, a vegetable, and a starch, or try a broader time limit to give it more to work with.
Can I save these recipes for later?+
Print a card for the kitchen, share a recipe with Tote, or share the result link with a friend. Tote can keep the recipes you want to make in a Recipes list on iPhone.
