Was that a red flag — or just you reading too much into it? cooked.ai is a chat decoder. Paste any conversation screenshot or type the messages, and the AI returns a 0–100 "cooked" rating, an "uncook" script (what to say next), and a read on what the other person is actually thinking. It's the friend group chat in your pocket — except it doesn't pick sides, doesn't get bored, and doesn't text back at 3am. WHAT YOU GET - Cooked rating — 0 (you're fine) to 100 (deeply cooked), so you know how serious it is - Uncook script — a ready-to-send response that defuses, reconnects, or sets the boundary you've been avoiding - Other side read — what they probably mean (and what they're not saying) - Follow-up turns — keep going, ask "what if I say this instead?", and the AI responds in context - Safety mode — if a conversation flags abuse or crisis, the app surfaces real resources, not a one-liner HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap "drop a screenshot" — paste from any messaging app (iMessage, WhatsApp, Snap, Insta, etc.) 2. Or paste/type the chat directly 3. Get an instant breakdown 4. Tap any follow-up chip to dig deeper PRO PLAN - Unlimited analyses (free tier is 1 read for guests, 3 reads for sign-ups) - Unlimited follow-up turns - Priority processing - Cancel anytime — auto-renewing weekly subscription cooked.ai doesn't store the chats you analyze beyond what's needed to power follow-ups. We don't sell or share your screenshots. Read our privacy policy for the whole story. This app is meant to help you communicate better — not replace therapy, mediation, or real-world support. If you or someone you know is in crisis, please reach out to a qualified professional.
