Cooking isn’t a chore. It’s the best part of the day.

We live to enjoy life — and food is the best part of it. Smakly takes care of everything around it: finding the recipe, planning the week, writing the shopping list and working out the portions.

The Smakly recipe feed on a phone
The loop

Five steps that keep coming round

Pick a step — the controls are the same graph as in the header, unfolded.

Step 01

Discover

A feed full of recipes from people who actually cook. Follow the ones you like and the feed learns what you want to eat.

  • Type in what’s in your fridge — get a recipe
  • Filters: time, difficulty, meal type, dietary tags
  • Ratings and comments from people, not from an editorial team
  • Your own recipe album — no more scattered bookmarks

Step 02

Plan

Set your day plan once and the calendar knows how many meals you eat. Drop a recipe onto a day and a slot — for yourself or for the whole group.

  • Day and week view, shared calendar for your group
  • Portions worked out per participant, automatically
  • Nutrition per recipe and per day
  • Copy a whole day or a single meal, or move it to another slot

Step 03

Shop

You don’t write the list. It writes itself — from every recipe in the calendar, in quantities scaled to the number of servings you actually need.

  • Ingredients from the whole week, added up
  • Add your own items with one tap
  • Tick things off as you go round the shop
  • Regenerate it from the plan any time — it stays on your phone

Step 04

Cook

Cook mode is one step at a time, full screen, on a phone that doesn’t go dark halfway through the recipe.

  • Big type — readable from across the counter
  • Screen stays awake, no touching it with wet hands
  • Ingredients always at hand, already scaled
  • Steps read aloud — genuinely hands-free

Step 05

Share

Invite your partner, family or flatmates and plan in one calendar. Everyone gets their own portion — and if you like creating, publish your recipes and collect real ratings.

  • One shared calendar — everyone sees the same week
  • Split the roles: who plans, who shops, who cooks
  • Your recipes in other people’s feeds
  • Comments from people who actually cooked it

Who it’s for

How do you want to use Smakly?

Pick the reason you’d open it — we’ll show you exactly that part of the app.

Everyday

Just tell me what to cook

Full fridge, empty head. Type in what you’ve got and get something you can actually cook tonight — scaled to however many are eating.

Cook from what’s in the fridgeThree ingredients are enough to get a proper dinner.
Time and difficulty filtersGot 20 minutes and one pan? That’s a filter.
Cook modeFull-screen steps, read aloud, screen never dims. Wet hands, no problem.
Portions that scale themselvesA recipe for four becomes a recipe for one.
Macros

I cook to hit numbers

Set the target once. The plan does the arithmetic — every recipe, every day, every portion.

TDEE built inDon’t guess your target; the app works out what you actually need.
Your day templateYour meals, your rhythm, your daily calorie target — set once.
Macros without typingCalories, protein, fat and carbs add up per recipe and per day.
Portions sized to youServings come out of your target, not the author’s.
Together

We run one kitchen

One calendar, one plan, one answer to “so what are we eating?” — whether it’s the two of you or the whole house.

A shared calendarInvite your partner, family or flatmates; everyone sees the same week.
Everyone’s own portionEach person’s plan drives their serving. One pot, right amounts.
The list writes itselfStraight from the week’s plan. No two tubs of cream, no missing garlic.
Extra portions, on purposeGuests on Saturday, or cook once and eat it again on Wednesday.
Food lovers

I’m here for the food

A feed of real home cooks, not a magazine front page. Follow the people whose food you’d actually eat.

A feed you chooseDriven by who you follow, not by an editor.
Filters that go deepMeal type, tags, time, difficulty — down to the dish you had in mind.
Save to your own listsKeep the ones worth repeating; they’re there next Sunday.
Ask the authorComments, reactions and reviews from people who actually cooked it.
Creators

I publish my own

Recipes you post get planned and cooked, not scrolled past.

Your own recipe albumA portfolio, not a feed that vanishes overnight.
Profile and followersBuild an audience of people who really cook.
Ratings and commentsFeedback from cooks, not from a random audience.
Public or privatePublish to your followers, or keep a recipe just for yourself.
Where it sits

Everyone owns one piece of this

Recipe apps organise what you already had. Calorie trackers measure what you already ate. Neither is somewhere you’d open on a Sunday evening with nothing particular in mind. Smakly is the overlap: a feed you browse, sitting on data you can plan against.

What the others leave out
Recipe & planner apps

No feed to browse, macros only, and the shared calendar sits behind a paid tier.

Calorie trackers

A good database and nothing to plan, shop or cook from — and you type every meal in.

AI photo apps

Nutrition estimated off a photo, no shared calendar, and a shopping list that never adds anything up.

Describing the common shape of each category, not any single product.

The idea behind it

A food tracker,
running backwards

A tracker asks what you ate. By the time it can ask, the day is over and the only thing left to do about the answer is feel bad. Smakly asks what you’re going to cook — and once that’s on the calendar, the counting has already happened.

Five steps after the fact. Every meal. Forever.

The numbers fall out of a plan you wanted anyway.

Nobody’s ambition is to get good at logging lunch. Dinner is supposed to be the best part of the day — the arithmetic is the part a phone should be doing.

Live it. Don’t overcook it.

You know what’s
cooking tonight.
