Make food that feels like yours.
However it starts.

Start with an idea or a recipe from someone you trust. About Thyme helps you shape it for your household, keep what works, and share it on.

Keep what looks delicious. Change what does not fit.

Ask for dairy-free, adjust the servings, or add extra lime. About Thyme makes a household version for you to review, save, and actually cook. If you share it, the original creator stays credited.

Make it yours. Keep it close. Use it tonight.

Good ideas, trusted recipes, and the versions your family loved stay together, ready for tonight.

Questions, answered

What do I need to run it?

An iPhone. The beta ships through Apple TestFlight, and we send you the link. Android is on the roadmap once iOS is where we want it.

How do invites work?

Leave your details below. We invite in small batches so every household gets real attention, and we reach out the moment a spot opens.

Do I have to use Instacart?

No. The weekly grocery list stands on its own. Sending it to Instacart is one tap, but you can shop it anywhere you like.

How does Make it mine handle dietary needs?

It can consider saved restrictions such as dairy-free or avoiding peanuts, adjust servings, and apply a one-off request. You review the proposed changes before saving. About Thyme does not certify a recipe as allergen-safe. Always verify ingredients, labels, and cross-contact for your household.

Is the AI in charge of my cooking?

No. You are. The AI adapts, drafts, and suggests only when you ask; you review the result before it becomes your version. As with anything AI-suggested, double-check ingredients against allergies and dietary needs.

Make the next recipe feel like yours

About Thyme is in private beta on iOS via TestFlight. Leave your details and we'll send your invite when a spot opens. Start with your own idea or a recipe someone shared.

Who's behind About Thyme

About Thyme began as a birthday gift.

One of our founders built the first version for his wife: they love cooking together, but the weekly planning and shopping kept crowding out the part they enjoyed most. It worked well enough in one kitchen that we decided to build it for everyone.

Today About Thyme is built and operated by About Thyme LLC, an independent software company building a creative cookbook and social cooking app. About Thyme helps households create recipes around their own tastes and needs, adapt recipes from people they trust, and share what works. Planning, shopping, and cooking carry that cookbook into the week. The app is in private beta on iOS via TestFlight.
