Save from anywhere, find it in seconds, plan the week together.
Save recipes from reels, sites and cookbook photos into one library, and find them by name, ingredient or creator. Invite the people you cook with into your household. Each of you swipes through the dinners in your library: right for yes, left to pass. The dishes you all said yes to become your matches. Pick from them, and the week is planned, with one shopping list for all of it.

The week, planned
From your matches, with one shopping list.
Someone has not swiped yet? You can plan the week anyway.
The problemThe cooking was never the problem. Finding it again is.
You save recipes from Instagram and TikTok all the time. Then the night you want one, it is gone: buried in a saved folder with a hundred others, or in a screenshot, or in a post you cannot find again. Yumzi keeps every recipe you saved where you can find it again, with the real recipe read out of the video, so it is there when you want to cook.
The insight
The recipe is in the video. That is the problem.
The steps flash past. The amounts are only in what the creator said, if they are written anywhere at all. The recipe you wanted is trapped inside a minute of video.
Ingredients found Amounts counted Steps written down
Right now, your recipes live everywhere.
Nobody uses just one of these. A screenshot here, a bookmark there, a note somewhere, and the one you want tonight is in none of them. Yumzi reads every one of them into a real recipe, so the one you want tonight is the one you get.
The mechanism
It reads the video, not the caption.
Audio transcribed. On-screen text caught. Amounts counted from what is visible. This recipe lives in sixty seconds of narrated video. Yumzi turned it into the full recipe on the right.
Yumzi catches the details you’d miss.
The dish you saw, from the creator you chose.
Every recipe comes from a creator you saved, credited and linked. Yumzi transcribes what is in the video. We transcribe. Creators cook. You eat. When it cannot read a recipe, it says so.

Why we built it
Every Sunday my saved folder had more dinners in it than we cooked all year. 200 reels. We ordered pizza again. So we built the thing that opens the folder: it reads your reels, deals a week, and writes the list.

The same story, everywhere
“pffff, ik heb denk ik wel duizend recepten opgeslagen. Misschien een stuk of tien echt gekookt”
Phew, I think I've saved about a thousand recipes. Maybe ten or so I've actually cooked.
Sanne
“Hoeveel opgeslagen recepten ik heb? 100 misschien? Gekookt? Misschien 2. Het is gedoe”
How many saved recipes do I have? 100, maybe? Cooked? Maybe 2. It's a hassle.
Daan
“Ja! Ik houd van tiktokrecepten. Maar als ik op het punt sta om naar Albert Heijn te gaan, speel ik toch op safe”
Yes, I love TikTok recipes. But when I'm about to go to Albert Heijn, I play it safe anyway.
Fleur
“De video's zijn altijd te snel en ik heb geen zin om het 20x terug te kijken. Ik wil gewoon lekker eten.”
The videos are always too fast and I don't feel like rewatching them 20 times. I just want good food.

Send a link or a photo, get the recipe
Share a TikTok, Instagram or YouTube video, a link to a recipe page, or a photo of a cookbook page. Yumzi reads the ingredients and steps out of it, caption or not, and saves the recipe to your library. Cook it tonight.

Cook it
Clean steps, real quantities, a hands-free cook mode with timers on your counter. Tonight, not someday.

Get the shopping list
Cooking a few? They become one shopping list, with duplicate ingredients merged and what is already in your kitchen left off. It is in the order you walk the shop, so you get everything in one trip.
What people actually ask forThe things people want from a recipe app. We already do them.
Read it out of any video or recipe page
Send a recipe video from Instagram, TikTok or YouTube, or a link to a recipe page. Yumzi reads it into a full recipe, even a video with no caption.
Fix a misread in a tap
When something is misread, you correct it yourself in a tap, so what you cook is what the creator made.
One shopping list
Every recipe you cook becomes one shopping list, merged and in the order you walk the shop.
Plan the week together
Everyone in your household swipes, and the week is planned from the dishes you all said yes to.
Scale the portions
Cooking for two or for six? Scale a recipe and the amounts follow, with a nudge on the salt and spice.
Find any recipe again
And as your library grows: search, tags and folders, so a recipe you saved is never lost again.
The list
One list, nothing forgotten.
The recipes you are cooking become one shopping list. Duplicate ingredients merge into a single line, and what is already in your kitchen comes off it. It is in the order you walk the shop, so nothing sends you back.

Fair questions.
Is this AI-generated food?
No. Every recipe comes from a real creator you chose to save. The AI does one job: it reads the video, audio and on-screen text, so the recipe arrives as the creator made it.
What does it cost?
The recipes you already have, planning, your shopping list and cooking are free for good. Reading a recipe, from a video, a photo or a recipe website, is free for your first ten, then one a week. Yumzi Pro, a subscription in the app, removes that limit.
I cook alone. Is this for me?
Yes. Yumzi reads your saved videos into real recipes and turns the ones you cook into one shopping list, all for one person. If you cook with someone, one link puts you at the same table, but that is a feature, not a requirement.
