Getting Started

Yes! Recipe Toolset offers a free tier that allows you to create up to 10 recipes. Unlimited recipes and the costing tools come with the Home and Business plans.
You can browse and view shared recipes without an account, but you'll need to sign up to create, save, and manage your own recipes.

Recipe Management

Paid Plans
Three. Free covers up to 10 recipes with sharing and unit conversions. Home adds unlimited recipes, recipe cost breakdowns, the ingredient catalog with supplier records, view analytics and PDF export. Business adds everything needed to produce to order: production planning with batch calculation, customer order tracking and inventory that updates as orders are fulfilled.
You cannot yet. Home and Business are not purchasable — there is no checkout, so no payment can be taken. The Free plan is available now, and the paid plans are shown on the pricing page so you can see what is coming.
Business only. Production planning, customer order tracking and inventory are not included with Home. Home covers recipe costing, the ingredient catalog and analytics.
On the Home and Business plans you can track ingredient suppliers, record sourcing details, and organise where you buy each ingredient. Those prices are what recipe costing is calculated from.
On the Home and Business plans you can track ingredient costs and calculate total recipe expenses with precision. Set ingredient prices, record supplier costs, and see the total and per-serving cost of every recipe.
The Home and Business plans include privacy-friendly view counts for the recipes you share, all time and over the last 7 and 30 days. No personal data about your readers is collected, which also means a reload counts again.
Account & Sharing

You can change your username in your profile settings. Usernames must be unique across the platform and can contain lowercase letters, numbers, and underscores.
