Getting started

How to use REMI.

Remi is your personal recipe companion — save recipes, cook through them step by step, and build your grocery list along the way.

01

Create your account

Sign up with your first name, email, and a password. Confirm your email and you're in.

  • Your first name personalises your dashboard greeting
  • Check your spam folder if the confirmation email doesn't arrive within a minute
  • Used Remi back when it emailed you magic links? Tap "Forgot your password, or never set one?" on the login page — we'll email you a link to set a password, and your recipes stay right where they are
  • You can change your name, email, or password anytime from Profile in the menu
02

Add recipes four ways

Remi makes it easy to bring any recipe into your collection. Choose whichever method suits the moment.

  • Paste text — copy a recipe from anywhere and paste it in
  • Import from a URL — paste a link and Remi extracts the recipe automatically
  • Upload a photo — snap your cookbook page or a hand-written card
  • AI Creator — describe what you're craving and Claude generates a recipe from scratch
03

Cook step by step

Once a recipe is saved, tap it to enter cooking mode. The first page shows the whole recipe at a glance — swipe on and each step gets its own full-screen card so you never lose your place.

  • Swipe left (or tap Next) to move forward, swipe right (or tap Prev) to go back
  • Tap "Keep screen on" at the top so your phone doesn't dim or lock mid-recipe
  • The progress bar at the top shows how far through the recipe you are
  • Scale the serving size — Remi recalculates every ingredient automatically
  • Tap any ingredient in the recipe to get a substitution suggestion
  • Use the − and + buttons at the top to make the text bigger or smaller
  • Add a personal note to any step — Remi remembers it for next time
04

Build your grocery list

Add ingredients from any recipe directly to your grocery list with a tap. Remi groups them so shopping is fast and organised.

  • Tap an ingredient in the recipe to add it to your list
  • Check items off as you shop — checked items move to the bottom
  • Use the store finder to locate where to buy a specific ingredient nearby
  • Add your own custom items by typing in the input at the top
05

Generate recipes with AI

Open the AI Creator from the menu. Describe what you want — a cuisine, a mood, ingredients you have on hand — and Claude writes a complete recipe for you.

  • Be specific: "a light Thai salad with mango and chilli, serves 2" gets better results than "salad"
  • The generated recipe is saved straight to your collection
  • You can edit any AI-generated recipe afterwards to tweak it
06

Transform any recipe

Open any saved recipe and tap either "Healthier" or "Chef Style" in the action row. Remi uses AI to reimagine the dish and saves the result as a brand-new recipe alongside the original.

  • Healthier — Claude swaps ingredients for lighter alternatives and adjusts cooking methods while keeping the dish recognisable
  • Chef Style — choose from 16 curated chefs (Gordon Ramsay, Yotam Ottolenghi, Jiro Ono, and more) or type any chef name you like
  • Curated chefs produce richer results because Remi passes their full flavour profile and technique signature to the AI
  • The saved recipe is automatically titled with the transformation — e.g. "Pasta Carbonara (Healthier)" or "Pasta Carbonara (Massimo Bottura's Style)"
  • Your original recipe is never changed — both versions sit side by side in your collection
  • You can keep transforming: open the new recipe and apply another chef style or healthier pass on top
07

Organise & share

Group recipes into lists — "Weeknight dinners", "Holiday baking", whatever fits your life — and share any recipe or a whole list with a link.

  • Open a recipe, tap the ⋯ menu, and choose "Save to list" — create a new list right from there
  • Find all your lists under My Lists in the menu
  • Tap "Share" on a recipe to send a link — friends can view it without an account
  • Share an entire list from its page — perfect for planning a holiday menu together
