Cook from the recipe, not the website.
Paste a link or snap a cookbook page. Lima places every ingredient inside the step that uses it.
Lima is in beta. Your first 10 recipes are free — after that, connect your own Anthropic API key. See how it's stored.
Every ingredient, placed where you need it.
Most apps dump a flat ingredients list at the top and leave you scrolling. Lima ties each ingredient to the step that uses it — so when you're cooking, you see exactly what goes in, when.
Eggplant Ratatouille Pasta
A summery one-pan ragu of charred eggplant, zucchini, and tomato, tossed with rigatoni and finished with basil.
Char the eggplant
Toss 2 medium eggplants, cubed with 3 tbsp olive oil and 1 tsp flaky salt. Roast at 220°C for 20 minutes, turning halfway, until deeply golden.
Built for cooking, not for scrolling.
From any URL or page photo
Paste a link from a food blog or newspaper. Or photograph a page from a cookbook. Lima reads either and extracts the recipe — title, timing, ingredients, method.
Ingredients placed inside each step
No flipping back and forth between the ingredients list and the method. Each step shows exactly what goes in, with timing and tips inline. Your screen stays awake.
