We officially launched BarBot!

Hi everyone! I'm excited to officially launch my new cocktail app today! You can download it for free at https://barbot.app (iOS and Android).

The core feature of the app is to suggest cocktails based on what ingredients you have available. I made BarBot because the existing apps didn't have enough cocktails in their database and also didn't have a good way of matching ingredients.

I scraped a ton of cocktail books to compile over 3,000 recipes, and also made a smart ingredient matching system (so if you have "Tequila Blanco" in your bar already, cocktails with "Tequila" will show up as well).

I also added an AI assistant feature to suggest specific cocktails. For example, you can ask it for springtime cocktails, gin-based cocktails for a birthday party, etc. and it will go through the database of recipes and pick out ones that fit your query.

Finally, I built the ability to rate and favorite recipes, create your own recipes, and log cocktail entries for a cool map/grid view of all of the cocktails you've had (plus some fun awards).

Super appreciate all of the support so far! I decided to make a completely free version with a premium version at $9.99/yr. As a thank you to the community, if you email [email protected] with the email you used to sign up, I'll gift you a free premium subscription!

I'm still working through feature requests so if you have anything you want to see in the app, let me know :)

Thank you!

I built this app for myself. I’ve used a bunch of the existing cocktail apps and was always disappointed by the lack of good recipes and recipe recommendations. Right now, we envision our target audience as people with an existing home bar or students with a dorm bar.

The testimonials are from real users! We were able to get a lot of users during our beta using TestFlight. We spread the link on the internet and throughout our college campus.
