One cook the
whole family talks to.
HelloCook is one shared account for the household. Whoever asks — a parent planning the week, a teenager on the bus, a partner at the shop — talks to the same assistant, which keeps one plan, one list, and everyone’s needs in mind.
- One shared account
- Plans adjust instantly
- Groceries stay in sync

Anyone can ask. One plan answers.
Three people said three things. The week rearranged itself once.
No group chat to reconcile, no one person holding it all in their head. The plan, the portions and Saturday’s list update together — and everyone sees the same week.
One account, four phones
The same Tuesday, wherever you open it.
Nobody is copying anything across. One plan, one list, one thread — each person just sees the part that concerns them right now.
Your recipes, brought together
A saved reel, a link and Nonna’s card walk into one collection.
Share it from Instagram, TikTok or YouTube, paste a link, photograph a cookbook page or a handwritten card. HelloCook reads it, keeps the source with it, and can plan the week around it the same evening.

Whoever passes the shop, shops
One list. Ticked off from any phone.
The grocery list follows the household’s shopping rhythm and is grouped by the shops you actually use. When Jonas grabs the basil on his way home, it’s gone from Marta’s list too.

- Courgettes · MarketJonas · 17:43
- Chicken thighs ×8 · ButcherTom · tomorrow
Help while you cook
Hands in the pan. Ask out loud.
Voice takes over when your hands are busy — and text is always there when the extractor is loud. Steps, quantities and timers stay readable from across the kitchen.
- Say “next” to advanceHands free
- Timers you start by askingRuns in the background
- “Can I swap the cream?”Answers mid-recipe
Each person, respected
Same dinner on every plate. Nobody eats what they can’t.
Portions, tastes, allergies and goals belong to each member of the account, not to the recipe. A critical allergy gets its own validation step before anything reaches the stove.
- Léa — vegetarianHer plate only
- Friday guest — nut allergyValidated before cooking
- Jonas — bigger portions on training daysRemembered
- Tom — less saltAdjusted quietly
Continuity
Said once. Used every week after.
Nothing here was filled into a form. It came up in conversation, and HelloCook kept it — so no one re-explains the family each Sunday.
- 12 Sept“Tom gets home late on Tuesdays.”Tuesdays are 35 minutes or less
- 14 Sept“The kids are here every other weekend.”Portions follow the calendar
- 15 Sept“I’m not eating meat anymore.”Léa’s plate, every meal since
- 15 Sept“We only have one big pot.”No recipe needs two
- 16 Sept“Jonas trains Mondays and Thursdays.”Bigger plates those nights
Before you install it
The questions households actually ask.
Who can join the account?
Everyone you feed. One household account, a profile per person — partners, children, a grandparent, a flatmate. Each has their own tastes, portions and restrictions.
Can children use it?
Yes. They talk to the same assistant and can ask what’s for dinner or request a favourite, but the plan, the budget and the restrictions stay with the adults.
What happens to my recipes?
They stay yours, with their source attached — the Instagram reel, the TikTok, the YouTube link, the photo of the card. Nothing is rewritten without you asking.
How are allergies handled?
A critical restriction is never inferred. It’s set on a person, treated as blocking, and validated in its own step before the meal is confirmed.
Which languages does it speak?
English and French, by voice or text — and it doesn’t mind when the household switches mid-sentence.
What does it cost?
One subscription per household, not per person. A free trial runs for a full shopping cycle so you can judge it on a real week.
One account. Everyone fed.
Every member of the household joins the same account. Voice and text, in English and French.
