HOW IT WORKS

From a video you saved and never made — to a list you can shop and a recipe you can actually follow.

ActuallyCook mascot thinking
01

Paste the link

Drop in any YouTube or TikTok cooking video. No typing the recipe out, no pausing every five seconds.

02

We read the recipe

Every ingredient, quantity and step — pulled into a clean recipe, plus a grocery list you can send to Reminders.

03

Actually cook it

Cook Mode walks you through one step at a time with built-in timers — hands-free, counter-friendly, no scrubbing back.

Ingredient recognition

EVERY INGREDIENT,
OFF THE SCREEN.

Watch the ingredients lift straight out of the video and land in your grocery list. Scroll to see it happen.

LOVED BY
RECIPE HOARDERS.

We’ve been quietly testing ActuallyCook with a small group of home cooks. Here’s what they told us.

“I tested it for a couple weeks and just… stopped screenshotting recipes. The grocery list straight from a TikTok is the part I didn’t expect to love.”

PMPriya M. · Early tester

“Cook Mode kept my place while my hands were covered in dough. First time an app actually matched how I cook in the kitchen.”

DKDaniel K. · Early tester

“Pasted a 12-minute YouTube recipe and had every ingredient in seconds. My partner thought I’d typed it all out myself.”
