Cook in more than one language? Feeding people with different needs? Built for both.

Two common situations, one app: your household cooks in more than one language (or you're importing recipes written in a language you don't read fluently), and/or different people you cook for have different allergies or dietary restrictions.

Neither of these is a bolt-on feature here — they're built into how the whole app already works. Every recipe you add, every weekly plan you build and every shopping list you generate can be read in the language you prefer and checked against the specific people you're feeding. There's nothing extra to buy for it: one plan covers translation across all 20 languages and unlimited per-person profiles, on every device you sign in on. What follows is how each side actually works, and where the honest limits are.

Translation that doesn't break the measurements

Logiciated translates the recipes themselves — ingredients and method, not just the menus and buttons — into 20 languages. The part that actually matters is what happens to the numbers: quantities are never sent through translation at all, so a recipe that says “1⅓ cups of sugar” can't come back as a garbled, nonsensical amount — a real failure mode in other translation tools. Unit words (“cup,” “gram”) are translated separately, checked against a culinary glossary so cooking terms don't get mistranslated into something generic.

This matters most in the two situations people actually hit. If you save a recipe in English but the person cooking reads Arabic or Vietnamese more comfortably, they get a clean version in their own language without you maintaining two copies. And if you're importing a recipe written in a language you don't read fluently, you can bring it in and read it in yours — with the amounts intact, which is the whole point of following a recipe.

Different needs for different people

"People I cook for" lets you set up a profile for each person in your life with the restrictions or allergies that apply to them — not just one household-wide setting. When you're planning what to cook for someone specific, Logiciated flags ingredients that conflict with their profile.

Most recipe apps treat allergies as a single on/off filter for the whole account, which falls apart the moment you're feeding a group — one person avoiding gluten, another with a nut allergy, a child who won't touch shellfish. Per-person profiles mean the warnings are specific to whoever you're actually cooking for that day, across your recipes, your planned menus and your shopping list.

Which languages are supported

The full set is 20 languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, Turkish, Greek, Arabic, Hindi, Macedonian, Vietnamese, Thai, Indonesian, Chinese, Japanese and Korean. Translation is powered by DeepL, with a culinary glossary layered on top for most languages so cooking-specific terms stay accurate rather than being translated as their everyday meaning. You can switch the whole app's language at any time, and any recipe reads in whichever language you've chosen.

Right-to-left languages are handled properly, not bolted on — choose Arabic and the whole interface flips direction to read naturally, rather than leaving the layout backwards. And because it's a web app, there's no separate language pack to download or a different app version to install per region: the same subscription gives everyone in the household the language they're most comfortable cooking in.

Important, and we mean this:

this is a warning system, not a guarantee. AI-detected allergens are indicative, not authoritative — always verify against the actual ingredient label before serving anyone with a real allergy. We'd rather tell you that plainly than oversell it.
