Updated November 11, 2026

Mise is a cookbook for your recipes, meal plan, and grocery list, on the web, on iPhone, and in Chrome. It keeps what it needs to show you your cookbook, and nothing else. No ads, no tracking, and nothing is sold.

What Mise keeps

• Your account from Sign in with Apple: an account ID, and the email Apple shares, which can be a private relay address.
• What you add: recipes, notes, ratings, the meal plan, the grocery list, and photos you add.
• If you cook with friends: your name and picture, who your friends are, and the meals you share.

It’s stored with Convex, which runs Mise’s server. The website is hosted by Vercel.

What Mise sends elsewhere

• When you add a recipe from its link, Mise’s server reads that page to get the recipe.
• To suggest categories, a recipe’s name, ingredients, and page labels go to TypeSafe.

Cooking with friends

This is only on if you add a friend. Friends see your cookbook: the recipes you save, plan, and make, with your ratings and notes. They don’t see your grocery list or your email.

You add a friend by sending them an invite link, from your own Messages or anywhere else. Mise never sees your contacts or anyone’s phone number. Each link works once, for 30 days; whoever accepts it first becomes your friend, and you can remove a friend at any time, which they aren’t told.

An invite link shows your name and a few of your recent recipes, with their photos, to whoever opens it.

A meal you share with friends shows on the plan of everyone at it, with who’s coming and each dish. Someone a friend adds sees your name, picture, and dish there, and can open that recipe, even if you aren’t friends.

The Chrome extension

The extension reads the recipe on the page you’re on only when you click its button, and shows it for you to check. Once you connect it to your Mise account on the Mise website, it keeps that sign-in in Chrome, and adding a recipe sends it, as you checked it, to your cookbook. It also asks Mise whether you’ve saved that page before and which categories fit, sending the page’s address and the recipe’s name, ingredients, and page labels (categories are suggested as above). Not connected, it opens the recipe in Mise for you to check there. It sends nothing else, and nothing until you click.

Deleting your data

To delete your account and everything in it, tap the tomato in Mise, on iPhone or the web, and choose Delete account. Your cookbook, meal plan, grocery list, and photos are deleted for good; friends keep recipes they saved from you. If you can’t sign in, email jackiehluo@gmail.com and say which Apple account you used.
