Kitchen companion for your household

Papille

pa·pille noun. French for “taste bud”.

Papille turns the cookbooks on your shelf — and the blogs and channels you love — into one shared, living kitchen: what you cook, what you're low on, what's for dinner, and what to buy.

What's inside

📚

Library →

Photograph any cookbook page and an AI reads every recipe off it — title, ingredients, servings, page. Your physical shelf becomes a searchable collection.

📖

Recipes →

Every extracted recipe in one place. Filter by book or category, rate what you've made, and send the ingredients straight to your shopping list.

🎲

Random →

Can't decide? Roll the dice across your recipes, a specific book (by page), a dormant pantry item, or your favourite food blogs and YouTube channels.

★

Go-to →

Your greatest hits. Save the meals you make on repeat and see when you last cooked each and how often — nothing forgotten, nothing overdone.

🧂

Pantry →

Track spices and staples. Papille flags what you haven't used in a while, so you can cook to use up the garum before it turns to archaeology.

🗓

Usuals →

The dishes you cook on repeat. Set how often you'd like each — every fortnight, once a month — and Papille tells you what's due, against when you last actually made it.

📅

Planner →

A shared seven-day plan for the whole household. Drop in recipes or web finds, then jump straight to the shopping list or rate what you cooked.

🛒

List →

One shopping list, everyone in sync — updating live across the household, and still working in the supermarket basement when you're offline.

✨

Assistant →

A cook who knows your kitchen. Ask it to plan the week around what's in the pantry and what you love — powered by your own AI key (Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek…).

👪

Household →

Cook together. Invite the people you live with by email and share one pantry, planner, and shopping list.

Common questions

What is Papille?

Papille is a household kitchen companion. It turns the cookbooks on your shelf and the food blogs and YouTube channels you follow into one shared, living kitchen — tracking what you cook, what you're low on, what's for dinner, and what to buy.

How does Papille get recipes out of my cookbooks?

Photograph any cookbook page and Papille's AI reads each recipe off it — title, ingredients, servings, and page — so your physical shelf becomes a searchable collection.

Is Papille shared with the rest of my household?

Yes. Invite the people you live with by email and share one pantry, meal planner, and shopping list. The shopping list updates live across everyone and keeps working offline in the supermarket.

Which AI models does the assistant use?

The assistant runs on your own AI key, so you choose the provider — Claude, GPT, Gemini, or DeepSeek among others — and it plans meals around what's already in your pantry and the recipes you love.
