## A third option: Saucepan

Saucepan is our app. It has ChatGPT and Claude connectors, MCP access for other AI apps, interactive cards in the chat, saving from Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, receipt scanning, recipes from what you have, nutrition estimates, widgets, Live Activities and Siri and Shortcuts actions, which neither BigOven nor Paprika shows on its own pages.

What to know first: it launches on November 13, 2026, so it has no track record or ratings yet. It is on iPhone, and runs on iPad. Android is coming soon. Where BigOven or Paprika is ahead of it: an Apple Watch app, Mac and iPad apps and Android.
