After years of smart fridges that weren't smart and recipe apps that left you frantically switching between stirring and scrolling, we're finally launching something that actually makes sense in the kitchen: Roux Voice, a voice-first kitchen assistant.
Roux Voice fundamentally changes how technology fits into your kitchen. Not by making cooking easier (though it does), but by making it better.
Here's how it works: paste any recipe URL into Roux Voice. That’s it. From there, it combines ingredient measurements with instructions, so you're not constantly jumping between lists. "Add two cups of flour" instead of "add flour (see ingredients)." Small change, big difference when your hands are covered in marinade.
But Roux Voice isn't just reading recipes—it's learning about you. It remembers your kitchen tools (because nothing's worse than starting a recipe only to discover it requires a mandoline you don't own). It knows your dietary restrictions and allergies. It understands that you like your curry spicier than the recipe suggests and that you're still traumatized from that one time you tried to deep-fry turkey.
Need a substitution for fish sauce at 11pm? Forgot the conversion from Celsius to Fahrenheit? Just ask, no typing, no scrolling, no interruption to your flow.
Voice in the kitchen changes everything. Just like we stopped printing MapQuest directions once we had navigation, you'll wonder how you ever cooked while babysitting a screen. Suddenly your hands are free, your attention is undivided, and cooking feels like... cooking again.
The kitchen revolution isn't hiding in some distant future—it's here now, quietly changing everything about how you cook. Try Roux Voice once, and you'll immediately understand what's been missing all along. The old way of cooking will feel like going back to printed out directions after GPS.
really exciting. How do you see this evolving with "view" and something like Meta glasses? I don t cook a lot but I feel like cooking is mostly visual. From the small bubble appearing before milk overheat to the brune color of grilled vegetables, there are a lot of visual aspect to cooking.
