Our Story

Discover the story behind You Gotta Try This and our mission to simplify the way you save, organize, and share recipes. We're here to bring order to your culinary chaos and make cooking more enjoyable.

The Problem We Solve

You Gotta Try This was born out of the frustration of scattered recipes. Good recipes end up everywhere—screenshots, texts, bookmarks, and handwritten notes. When it’s time to cook, you either can’t find them or you lose track of the version that actually worked. We solve this recipe chaos by giving you one simple place to save, organize, and share recipes inside the app, making cooking, planning, and shopping easier than ever.

What Makes Us Different?

You Gotta Try This stands out because it’s built for how people actually cook, not just how they collect recipes. We offer a single place for all your "good ones," eliminating the chaos of scattered recipes. Organize your recipes your way with recipe groups that match how you think, not a rigid system. Keep your tweaks, notes, and real-life adjustments with each recipe. Turn "what are we making?" into "what do we need?" in seconds, and share recipes to a group or publicly within the app. It's less about saving links and more about making recipes easier to find, use, improve, and share with the people you cook with.

Who Is It For?

"Finally… a simple place for all my recipes, and it actually makes cooking easier."
