Home
In front of the people it suits
Everyone's Home fills with recipes that fit their diet, allergies and tastes, so yours reach the people most likely to cook them. Your followers see your newest recipes on their Home, and the search bar finds the rest.
Creating recipes
Write it the way you cook
Ingredients in spoons, cloves or grams, steps in your own words, and your own photo. Bitebot's templates of loved recipes from around the world give you a head start, so you rarely begin from scratch. And you choose who sees each recipe: everyone on Ecobite, or only the people you share it with.
Personalised recipes
Their twist, your credit
Anyone can take your recipe and make it their own: swap an ingredient, change the portions, cook it their way. Their version always shows "Personalised from" with your recipe and your name, so the credit comes back to you.
In the app
Your recipes, seen and cooked
-
A profile of your own
Your picture is on every recipe. One tap leads to your profile, with all your recipes together under your name, where people can follow you.
-
Both ratings, worked out for you
We work out the nutrition rating and the footprint of every recipe you add, and show which ingredients shape them. The footprint sits right on the card.

The most-loved and best-scoring recipes are featured in the app, so your best dishes get the attention they deserve.

FAQ
Questions, answered
How do I become a creator?
Anyone who loves to cook can be one, and there's no application. Open the app at ecobite.io, make a free account and add your first recipe: that's all it takes. See how it works for creators.
Is it free to publish?
Yes, publishing your recipes on Ecobite is completely free.
Can I earn money from my recipes?
Soon, yes. We're working on premium recipes, which will let you sell selected recipes and earn from your own content. We'll announce it here and in the app as soon as it launches.
Can I keep a recipe private, or share it only with some people?
Yes. You choose for each recipe whether it is public or private, and you can change your mind later. A private recipe stays out of the lists and the search, but anyone you send its link to can open it, so it's also the way to share a recipe with just the people you choose.
Can other people copy my recipe?
Others can personalise a public recipe, which gives them their own version to change. Yours stays exactly as you wrote it and your photos aren't copied over. If they make their version public, you get the credit: a note shows it was personalised from yours. Their version stays theirs, even if you later delete yours. Would you rather keep a recipe as yours alone? Just set it to private.
Who is credited when a personalised recipe is personalised again?
When you personalise from someone, if someone then personalises from your recipe, credit will go back to the original recipe holder. This is to avoid long chains of personalisation that can be used to avoid giving credit to the original creator.
Can I post recipes from a cookbook or another website?
Please share only words and photos that are your own, or that you have permission to use. Recipes and photos from cookbooks and other sites usually belong to someone else, even when they're easy to copy. A dish cooked your own way, written up in your own words with your own photo, is always welcome. Our terms have the details.
Can I edit or delete a recipe after publishing?
Yes, whenever you like. Edit a recipe and its ratings are worked out again straight away. Delete one and it's gone from Ecobite, though people who had already tracked or personalised it keep their own copy.
Who owns my recipes?
Your recipes and photos always stay yours. When you publish them, you give Ecobite permission to show them in the app and on our website, always with credit to you and a link to your profile.
How are my recipes scored?
Exactly like every other recipe on Ecobite: a nutrition rating for how nourishing it is, and a footprint rating worked out from life cycle data. It all happens automatically, so you can focus on the cooking. See how we score.
