Your recipes,
minus the math.

What Kaycee Brings To The Kitchen

Kaycee helps you scale, convert, and cook your recipes while reducing your mental load.

From collecting recipes to cooking through to the last step, Kaycee handles the busywork so you can focus on the food.

Build & Organize Your Library

Add recipes by hand, import from any supported recipe site, or scan them straight out of your cookbooks, then keep it all organized.

  • Unlimited recipes, free forever. No caps, no trials
  • Groups, tags, and fast search

Scale Any Recipe

Halve it, double it, or hit any serving count, and every amount updates, including the ones inside the instructions.

  • Any multiplier, not just ×2 and ×½
  • Amounts in the cooking steps scale too
  • No more mid-recipe mental math

Smart Conversions

Switch a whole recipe between metric and imperial in a tap.

  • Convert the entire recipe at once
  • Glance at equivalents while cooking
  • Set your preferred units once and every recipe follows

Good to know

Frequently asked

Is Kaycee free?

Yes. Everything you need to cook is free, forever: unlimited recipes, importing, scaling, conversions, Cook Mode, timers, sync, and backups. Kaycee Pro ($1.49/mo, $11.99/yr, or $34.99 once) adds time-savers like unlimited scanning and Smart Groups, never the essentials.

Do I need an account or internet?

No account, ever. Your recipes live on your device and cooking works fully offline. Internet is only used to import from websites, to parse ingredients when you save, and for iCloud sync if you use it.

Is my data private?

Yes. Recipes are stored on your device and synced through your private iCloud with end-to-end encryption, so we can't see them, and nothing is tracked or sold. Kaycee's App Store privacy label is “Data Not Collected.”

What happens if I cancel Pro?

Nothing is taken away. Your recipes were never gated, existing Smart Groups keep working, and your customizations stay. You just can't create new Pro things until you're back.

Can I get my recipes out?

Always. Full backup export/import is free, so your library is portable and never held hostage.

Which devices are supported?

iPhone, running iOS 26 or later.
