There's a cookbook in everybody. PALET is where you build yours. BIG ONE. Until now, PALET started once the cooking was done. Now it starts before. Open the app and it asks "What are we cooking?" Say what you're after, like you'd say it to a mate. "Barbecue on Saturday for eight. One of them's veggie." "High protein for two, 20 minutes." "Tuesday. Knackered. Something warm in 30 minutes." Or photo the fridge. PALET says what it can see, asks a question or two, then builds the recipe. Then talk to it. "Less chilli." It tells you what it changed. "Make it for six." It gives you the amounts. Save it to a book and it's a proper page: grams, method, techniques, tips, estimated nutrition. Everything else is where you left it. Snap it, talk it or film it, and PALET writes up what you cooked. BUILD IT β€’ Four studios, each with a look of its own. Pick one, frame the cover once, write an introduction. β€’ Photos on your books and chapters. β€’ Build it alone or with the people you cook with. COOK IT β€’ Hands-free cook mode: say "next step" while your hands are covered in flour. β€’ Every step shows the ingredients it uses. Techniques and tips as you go. β€’ Scale servings, switch between metric and imperial. KEEP IT β€’ Private by default. Share by link, or make it public. You choose. SHARE IT β€’ Share a recipe or a whole cookbook with a link. No app needed to read it. β€’ People don't just like your food, they cook it. Hearts, Cooked it, star ratings. And if you've ever wanted to publish your own cookbook, sell it, or put one in the hands of the people you cook with: watch this space. PALET Plus is included for everyone: every studio, unlimited recipes and cookbooks, no watermarks.
