Meet Ambi.
Your voice runs the kitchen.
Ambicook turns any YouTube cooking video or recipe website into a synced, split-screen cook-along — then Ambi lets you control the whole thing hands-free. Just say "Ambi" and keep your hands on the food, not your phone.
Free during early access · No credit card · Cancel anytime
From link to hands-free in three steps
No manual typing, no re-writing recipes. Ambicook does the reading so you can do the cooking.
Paste a link
Drop in a YouTube cooking video, playlist, or a recipe website — anything you'd normally follow along with.
Ambicook extracts it
Ingredients, steps, and timing come out automatically — synced to the exact moment in the video.
Say "Ambi" and cook
Play, pause, skip, change speed, or ask "how much butter?" — all hands-free, while Ambi keeps listening.
Like Siri, but she actually knows the recipe.
Ambi stays listening the whole time you're cooking — no wake-button to hunt for with sticky fingers. Ask it to jump to a step, slow the video down, or read back an ingredient amount, and it answers out loud, right there on screen, Siri-style.
- Always-on while Cook Along is open — no tapping a mic icon
- Simple playback commands run instantly, for free
- Ingredient questions get answered from the recipe itself
Everything you need to actually cook along
Built for the parts of cooking that videos and blogs usually get wrong.
Voice control
Say "Ambi" to play, pause, skip, change speed, or ask a question — hands-free, every time.
Split-screen Cook Along
The video plays on one side, the recipe on the other — perfectly synced, so you never lose your place.
Scaling & unit conversion
Cooking for 6 instead of 4? Switch imperial to metric? One tap, and every ingredient updates.
Household sharing
Everyone in your household sees what everyone else has saved — one shared recipe box.
Smart search
Search recipes you've already imported, or paste a link straight from the web — same box, either way.
Meal planning
Plan the week, then generate one shopping list — ingredients merged and scaled automatically.
Questions, answered
Is Ambicook free?
Yes, during early access. Playback commands like play, pause, and skip never cost anything — they run entirely on your device.
Does it work with any recipe video?
Ambicook works with YouTube cooking videos, YouTube playlists, and most recipe websites. If a link doesn't extract cleanly, you can always paste it again later.
What does "Ambi" actually listen to?
Ambi only listens while the Cook Along screen is open and stops the moment you leave it. Voice processing for the wake word happens on-device.
Do I need an account?
No — you can import, save, and cook along as a guest. Signing in just means your recipes follow you if you switch devices.
When can I actually download it?
