The system of record for your taste
Cook by the light of your own taste.
Palate learns the shape of your taste — then hands you five recipes every Sunday that fit it, and one that stretches it.
Free during the beta · twenty-five questions · about three minutes
Drawn live by the engine — not a photo of someone else's dinner.
Map it
Twenty-five questions.
One honest shape.
No star ratings, no essays — twenty-five quick either-ors (three of them are right here) sketch your palate across eighteen flavor dimensions. Three minutes, and it ends up unmistakably yours.
Real scores, live — the same engine that runs the Studio.
The Studio
Two ingredients in.
Dinner finds itself.
The Studio is a canvas, not a form. Drop in whatever the fridge offers and the engine reads the flavor chemistry between them — 260 ingredients, 28,441 learned pairings — then quietly deals direction cards for what belongs next. Follow its lead, or overrule it. It's your dish; Palate just holds the map.
The Record
Cooked it? Then it counts.
That tagine you just watched come together — you cook it, you tap "I made this," and it takes a seat at your table: one quick verdict, one this-or-that, and your ranking reorders around it. No stars, no essays. Months from now you'll know exactly which tagine beat which ragù, because you said so at the stove.
Loved it
#3 of 5 in Loved it — 8.4
The same three taps as the real Cook Log — rank, don't rate.
Why Palate exists
Taste is a fingerprint. Yours has a shape.
Palate draws it, keeps the record, and cooks from it — every dish you log sharpens the picture. No two palates land on the same six points.
