Sous
Cook with a living recipe.
Not a chat log.
Sous is the cooking app that keeps your recipe front and center, no matter what happens mid-cook.
Get the BetaSpots are limited.
The recipe starts at the top.
Then it doesn't.
You ask ChatGPT for a recipe. Great. It's right there.
Then you ask one question. The recipe moves up. Fine.
Then you ask another. And another. Maybe you burned something. Maybe you're out of an ingredient. Maybe a guest just texted.
Now you're scrolling. And you're not even sure which version of the recipe is the right one anymore. Was it before or after you asked about the substitution?
You type "just reprint the whole recipe." Now there are two.
You just wanted to cook and drink too much wine.
ChatGPT is a chat that can make recipes.
Sous is a recipe that can have a conversation.
That's not a small difference. In ChatGPT, every message pushes the recipe further away. Every substitution question, every "what do I do if I burned the garlic", every "actually make this for six people": the recipe drifts a little further out of reach.
Sous is built the other way around. The recipe is the thing. The chat is just how you talk to it. So ask anything: what to substitute, whether your onions are done, what to do about the guest who's lactose intolerant. The recipe doesn't move. It just quietly becomes the right recipe for the cook you're actually having.
One recipe. Always current. Right where you left it.
So you can use AI to be a better cook, and have more fun doing it.
What that looks like mid-cook
Sous remembers you as a cook.
And only that.
Tell Sous you hate cilantro and it will never suggest it. Tell it you're usually cooking for four and it scales all your recipes accordingly by default. Mention your kids won't eat spicy food and it remembers next time without you having to say it again.
ChatGPT remembers you too, but as everything. The marketing deck you asked it to fix. Your opinions on Severance season 3 at 1am. It all goes in the same pot.
Sous only knows you in the kitchen. Which means when it knows something about you, it's always relevant.
