Sous - Cook what you watch. Share what you make.

by•
Most recipe apps focus on storing curated recipes — a problem that’s already solved. Sous addresses a different gap: turning YouTube cooking videos into something you can actually cook from. Sous extracts ingredients, steps, and timestamps from YouTube cooking video — then guides you through each step with the video synced, auto-generates your grocery list, and creates a shareable link. Sous doesn’t replace recipe apps — it transforms passive video watching into a practical cooking workflow.

The origin is mundane and universal: a weekend in the kitchen, a great YouTube cooking video, and the same awkward ritual that plays out in millions of households. Someone spots a recipe they want to make. The video starts. Then comes the rewinding for ingredient quantities, the pausing mid-step to scribble notes, the scramble to build a grocery list from memory. The video is doing all the work of showing you how to cook, but it's doing nothing to help you actually cook. Sous is built because that friction felt unnecessary. The information is already in the video. The problem is just extraction.
