Nommer

Nommer is a mobile app that turns any recipe into a two-player cooking experience. Instead of one person reading the recipe while the other follows instructions, Nommer splits the work into two synced roles. Each cook follows their own checklist on their phone, and when one ticks off a step, the other sees it instantly. The app handles timing, handoffs, and even builds a shared shopping list. You can add a recipe by pasting a link, snapping a photo of a cookbook page, or typing in text – Nommer uses AI to parse the instructions and divide them into a plan for two. Live sync keeps both phones up to date, so there's no confusion about who does what. Handoff cues tell you when to pass ingredients to your partner, like 'Hand the toasted pine nuts to Bob.' The shared shopping list ensures you both know what's been bought. The app is free to download on iOS and Android, with an optional Pro upgrade. It's designed for any two people cooking in the same kitchen – couples, roommates, friends, or a parent and child. Real-world use cases include cooking a complex dinner together without stepping on each other, teaching a kid how to cook by letting them handle their own steps, or meal prepping with a partner where each person has their own tasks. Nommer takes the coordination headache out of cooking together.
