Every recipe site gives you one version of a dish. You are the one who has to work out what to do about the soy sauce, the butter, or the fact that it makes six portions and you want two.
Paste a link from TikTok, Instagram, or any recipe site and Makmak pulls out the real recipe: ingredients, steps, cook times, and a photo, with the blog noise stripped away. No sign-up, no charge. There isn't even an account to make.
SAVE FROM ANYWHERE, FREE
One screen: paste a link, paste the recipe text, photograph a cookbook page, snap a plated dish and let Makmak write a best-guess recipe, or write down a family recipe that exists nowhere else. New here? You start with three recipes already adapted to you.
ADAPT ANY RECIPE, FREE
Most recipe apps just store recipes. This one changes them. Tap Adapt on anything in your library:
- More protein, raised with real food, not powder
- Smaller portions: less on the plate, the same protein
- Gentler, higher fibre, lower sugar, cheaper
- Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, vegetarian, keto, carnivore
- Or just type what you want
Eliminations catch the hidden sources too: the wheat in soy sauce, the dairy in ghee, the soy in tempeh. Every change flips over in front of you before you save. The new version keeps the original's photo, wears an Adapted badge, and sits alongside the original.
ALSO FREE
Talk to your recipes ("make it for six") and Makmak revises the whole thing; you review first. Ask Makmak for substitutions, scaling and technique. Per-serving nutrition, protein first. Say what's in your pantry, get what you can cook. Auto-fill a week of meals. The AI features are free up to a daily limit.
COLLECT WHAT YOU COOK
Finish a recipe in Cook Mode and a stamp comes down on it. Your Cooked shelf keeps them in a row, with your stamp count.
REMINDERS, IF YOU WANT THEM
Makmak can remind you about tonight's dinner, Saturday's grocery list, Sunday planning, and a saved recipe you haven't made yet. Each has its own switch, and never more than one a day.
GATHER: A TABLE, NOT A FEED
Real recipes from real people, under their chef names. Tap "I made this," leave a one-line note, and the chef gets the credit. Adapt a recipe and share it back, and every version shows up together with who made it. Titles and badges come from what people actually make, never likes or followers. A chef name is just a name: no account, no email, no sign-in. Everything is reviewed first.
MAKMAK PRO, FOR WATCHING VIDEO
Pro is for the one expensive thing: video. Let Makmak watch a YouTube video and read the recipe out of the spoken steps and on-screen text, import a cooking video saved on your phone, and get a much higher daily limit. Everything above is free.
IN THE KITCHEN
Cook Mode shows ingredients and steps in big, glanceable text, keeps the screen awake, and starts timers right from a step, on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Scale a recipe to feed two or twenty.
PLAN THE WEEK, SHOP ONCE
Plan meals a day at a time; Makmak combines them into one grocery list, grouped by aisle, and adds up the amounts (1 tbsp plus 1 tsp becomes 1⅓ tbsp). Check items off as you shop.
FEATURES
- Dinner widget, serving scaling, US/metric
- Cookbooks, tags, favorites, typo-tolerant search
- Share any recipe as a link, a card, or to Gather
- Import and export anytime, never locked in
PRIVACY FIRST
Your recipes belong to you. Makmak keeps your cookbook on your device and syncs through your own iCloud: no account, no tracking, no ad profiles. Cloud features are off until you turn them on. When you use them, only the link, photo, or recipe you choose is sent to be read, and Makmak doesn't keep it.
Save any recipe. Own your cookbook.
Makmak Pro is an auto-renewing subscription: $2.99/month or $19.99/year. It renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime.
