The idea

Recipes ranked by what you already own

Most recipe apps start with a dish and send you shopping. Cookiva starts with your shelves and sorts every recipe into three answers.

  • Ready now

    Every ingredient is already on your shelves. Start cooking without leaving the house.

    Spinach and feta filo, 9 of 9 ingredients in

  • Almost there

    A couple of things short. Your chef offers a swap for what's missing before sending you out.

    Chicken and lemon traybake, 7 of 9 ingredients in

  • Use it up

    Recipes that spend whatever is closest to turning. These jump the queue on purpose.

    Creamy spinach orzo, 8 of 9 ingredients in

What it does

Everything between the shopping bag and the plate

Cookiva handles the part of cooking nobody enjoys: remembering what you have and how long it has left.

  • Scan the receipt

    Photograph a till receipt and every item lands on your shelves, sorted and dated. Barcodes and plain typing work too.

  • Say what you bought

    Talk through the shop while you unpack it. Cookiva writes the list down and files it for you.

  • Know what turns first

    Every item carries a day count. You hear about the spinach before it goes in the bin, not after.

  • What can I make?

    One tap reads your shelves and sorts recipes into Ready Now, Almost There and Use It Up.

  • Leftover mode

    Pick the three things you need to finish tonight and get recipes built around exactly those.

  • A week you can shop for

    Plan the week, then let Cookiva write the shopping list from whatever the plan is missing.

  • Nineteen chefs, one kitchen

    Pick a guide chef. Recipes, substitutions and the daily greeting arrive in their cuisine and their voice.

  • Pantry Score

    A weekly read on meals planned, waste prevented, cuisines explored and Cook With Me posts shared.

  • Cook for the household

    Share one pantry with up to five others, each with their own dietary preferences and allergens.

How it works

Three steps, then it runs itself

Setup is one receipt long. After that, Cookiva keeps the list current every time you shop.

  1. 1

    Scan the receipt

    Point the camera at a till receipt. Cookiva reads every line, matches it to real food, and asks you to confirm anything it isn't sure about.

  2. 2

    It dates everything

    Each item gets a storage place and a realistic shelf life, so your pantry knows what's fresh, what's close, and what needs using tonight.

  3. 3

    Cook what turns first

    Open What Can I Make and the recipes you can cook right now come first — ranked so the ingredient with the fewest days left gets used.
