Meet Ambi.
Your voice runs the kitchen.
Ambicook turns any YouTube cooking video or recipe website into a synced, hands-free cook-along — then automatically tracks the calories and helps you plan the week on a shared calendar. 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 calorie counting, 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, timing, and a per-serving calorie & macro estimate — all pulled out automatically.
Cook, track, or plan
Say "Ambi" and cook hands-free, check the nutrition, or drop it onto next week's calendar — your call.
Three core features. One less thing to think about.
Everything Ambicook does folds into three jobs: cook hands-free, know what you're eating, and plan ahead.
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
Know what's in it before you eat it.
Every recipe you upload gets an automatic calorie and macro estimate — no manual logging, no separate food-diary app. Ambicook reads the ingredient list it already pulled out of the video or webpage and works out the numbers per serving.
- Calories, protein, carbs, and fat — estimated the moment you import
- Reasoned from the actual ingredients and quantities, not a guess
- No manual food-diary entry, ever
Save it once. Plan the whole week.
Every recipe you save lands in one shared household box. Drop it onto a day on the calendar, and Ambicook builds your shopping list automatically — ingredients merged and scaled across everything you've planned.
- Save recipes to a shared household collection
- Drag meals onto a weekly calendar
- One auto-generated shopping list for the whole week
Plus everything else you'd expect
Small details that add up when you're actually cooking.
Scaling & unit conversion
Cooking for 6 instead of 4? Switch imperial to metric? One tap, and every ingredient updates.
Split-screen Cook Along
The video plays on one side, the recipe on the other — perfectly synced, so you never lose your place.
Smart search
Search recipes you've already imported, or paste a link straight from the web — same box, either way.
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?
Ambicook is in active development. Join the waitlist below and we'll email you the moment early access opens.
