Every feature, told properly

Everything Sofra does,
in four chapters.

Cooking is the feature. The app is the supporting act. Here's the whole supporting act.

The free tier is genuinely useful — not a crippled demo.— From our Pricing page

Features, in four chapters

Chapter I · Your kitchen

The pantry, remembered.

Mark your pantry with a simple in-stock / need-more toggle. From then on, every recipe knows what you've got — and every grocery run knows what you don't.

Binary pantry model — no quantities to maintain
"What Can I Cook?" ranks recipes by pantry match
One-tap shopping list for missing ingredients
Smart deduplication across multiple recipes
Chapter II · Your cookbook

Import anything.

Paste a link from any recipe website, blog, or cooking platform. Sofra extracts the title, ingredients, steps, timing, and hero image — clean, structured, ad-free, and yours to keep.

Five-tier pipeline with >90% success rate
Structured schema, site-specific parsers, AI fallback
YouTube recipe import (Premium)
Unlimited recipe library, grid & list views
Chapter III · The question

Ask, and it cooks.

"Quick pasta with what I have." "Something low-carb for dinner tonight." AI Smart Search parses natural language and ranks results against your actual pantry — no more scrolling twelve tabs at 7pm.

Natural-language search across your library
Pantry-aware and diet-aware ranking
Ranked results with missing-ingredient counts
Premium — unlimited queries
Chapter IV · The companion

A hand on the hob.

Mid-cook, ask anything. Cooking Companion sees the recipe you're on, knows the step you're at, and answers like a friend who's been there. AI Substitutions are ranked by culinary fit — and by what's already in your pantry.

Contextual chat tied to the recipe and current step
Hands-free cooking mode with wake lock
Substitutions ranked Excellent / Good / Acceptable / Poor
Step timers with screen lock nudges
