# Tara by Cravv

> Tara is an AI kitchen companion. A camera under your range hood watches every burner, and Tara, on your counter, talks you through every step of the recipe, so you can cook with your eyes on the food instead of a screen.

Tara is made by Cravv (Leafworks Dynamics Private Limited, Bengaluru, India). Tara is available to pre-order: reserve one for $49 on the [Pricing page](/pricing) ($299 in total).

## Two parts. One kitchen.

- **The camera** sticks under your range hood magnetically and lifts off whenever you need it. From up there it watches your stove and acts as Tara's eyes.
- **Tara** sits on your counter and talks you through every step. Her screen shows only what's next.

## What Tara does

- **Guides every step by voice.** Ask "Tara, how does it look?" and she answers from what the camera sees, for example "Turn the heat down. The tomatoes go in once the onions are golden." Tara speaks more than 70 languages; if the Wi-Fi drops, she pauses and notifies you.
- **Watches your pan and tells you what's next** (onions in, stir, garlic, tomatoes, simmer, serve).
- **Catches a pot before it boils over**: milk, soup or pasta water.
- **Calls you when the water boils.** Out of the room? Tara alerts your phone.
- **Plans the week around who's eating**, including allergies, and reminds you the night before to thaw or soak.
- **Writes the grocery list** from your dinners, minus what you already have, and can fill an Instacart cart. Nothing is bought until you check out in Instacart.
- **Logs nutrition** in your food diary when you finish cooking (calories, protein, fiber). Nothing is tracked unless you turn it on.
- **Chef-tested recipes**, and you can add your own from YouTube or any website.

## Works in the kitchen you already have

No new stove or special pans needed.

- Gas, induction, electric coil and infrared (glowing glass) cooktops
- Any pot or pan: skillet, stockpot, wok, Dutch oven, pressure cooker
- A metal range hood (the camera sticks on magnetically)
- Your voice: Tara speaks more than 70 languages

## Privacy

- A light shows when the camera is on.
- The camera points at the stove. It sees your stove, not your room.
- You see what it sees before your first cook.

## FAQ

**Can I use my own recipes?** Yes. Add one from YouTube or any website.

**Do I need my phone to cook?** No. Tara guides you on her own. The app is for planning and shopping.

**What if the Wi-Fi drops?** Tara pauses and notifies you.

**How long does the camera battery last?** Up to 4 hours of active cooking. It recharges on Tara's stand.
