Smart kitchen timer

Cook everything to finish hot.

Your main comes out perfect — but the sides have gone cold. Pinch builds a smart timeline so every dish in your meal finishes hot, at the same moment.

Timing a whole meal is the hardest part of cooking.

Three pans, two timers in your head, and a roast that won’t wait. Pinch does the math for you — it staggers every start so the slow stuff and the quick stuff all land at once.

How it works

Three steps to a meal that lands together

No spreadsheets, no guessing. Tell Pinch what you’re making and it builds the plan.

1

Add your dishes

Pick from 27+ built-in items or add your own, each with its cook time and appliance.

2

Pinch builds the schedule

It lines every dish up on one timeline so they all finish at the same moment.

3

Cook with confidence

A “Get Ready” heads-up before each step, then a “Done” alert when it’s time to plate.

Features
