Create an online cooking course app
Online cooking course app: video modules by level, from the basics to world cuisines
Your students follow a path from beginner to advanced, watch every move on video, find each module's written method, and are told when a new module comes out.
Your online cooking school in a native app, with no development: video modules sorted by level, techniques filmed move by move, world cuisines, access sold by the month or the year, and a free live stream to let people discover your teaching.
Free 30-day trial - No credit card required

A path in three levels
Beginner, intermediate, advanced: one section per level, modules in order
Organize your teaching like a curriculum: one section per level, each holding numbered modules, from holding a knife properly to a reduced stock. Every module brings together the video, the equipment list and the written method. A single subscription unlocks every level together: students begin wherever they like, and you manage one plan, monthly or yearly.

Techniques, filmed move by move
Brunoise cuts, a stable emulsion, laminated dough: short videos, close to the hands
Advanced techniques make sense when you see them: film them in short sequences and place them in reserved modules, with the key points written underneath. A student replaying the same sequence three times costs you nothing: video traffic is not billed, only storage space follows your plan. These videos stream, so a connection is needed.

World cuisines, module by module
Japan, Lebanon, Mexico, Italy: one section per cuisine, its staples and its techniques
Add a section for each world cuisine: the staples to know, the techniques specific to each tradition, three recipes to practice. The same subscribers get in, with no extra plan. An automatic push announces every new module, with a prefix such as “New module:”.

A school in an app, a learning platform or a video channel: which one?
What each option changes for a chef teaching on video.
| Your school's app | Learning platform | Free video channel | |
|---|---|---|---|
| The school under its own banner in the stores | yes, native | under the platform's brand | under the channel's brand |
| Videos reserved for paying students | module by module | program by program | no |
| How the student pays | through their phone's store | bank card, with the platform | they don't pay |
| New module announcement | automatic push | the platform's email | depending on the algorithm |
| What is withheld from your sales | the store's share, nothing for GoodBarber | a commission set by the platform | nothing to withhold |
Opening your online cooking school
Four steps, from the first shoot to the first subscribed student.
The levels
One section per level, and one per world cuisine.The modules
Shoot and upload at least ten reserved modules; keep one trial module open to everyone.The plan
Monthly, yearly or both; one rate per store; a free trial, if you decide on one.The announcements
Each section fires its own automatic alert when a module comes out.
The Sunday live stream, open to everyone
Live Video to show how you teach, with the replay in the module
A live stream can't be reserved, so use it as a way in. On Sunday at 11 a.m., broadcast a recipe live from your usual streaming tool, open to anyone with the app; the following week, the detailed edit joins the reserved module. The stream goes one way, from you to your students, with no video call.

AI working for your students
Three uses, with their price.
To understand
“Why does my mayonnaise split?”
The Chatbot reads the written methods in your modules, never the videos; a student who hasn't subscribed only gets what the free modules say.
29€/month
To convert
A measures and temperatures converter
For recipes from around the world: cups to grams, Fahrenheit to Celsius. Describe it once; the AI Extension Builder then builds that converter into the app.
Free
To plan
The week's modules scheduled from Claude
Through the MCP server, Claude or ChatGPT, the assistant you already have, drives the app: ask it to release Tuesday's module and its push, confirm, and it's done.
Included
What else your students find
Comments per module
Students ask their questions under the module; you answer and moderate.
Downloadable recipe sheets
One PDF per module, hidden until the student subscribes.
Favorites
Modules to practice again at the weekend.
Search
Find a technique or an ingredient across every level.
Time-limited modules
Set an end date: the Christmas module disappears by itself in January.
A web version
Once subscribed, students find their modules in a browser.
The chef opening an online school
Three levels of video modules, a Sunday live stream to get known, the yearly subscription put forward.
The neighborhood cooking workshop
In-person sessions are booked and paid outside the app; the app sells access to the videos for practice at home.
The blogger with detailed recipes
If you publish recipes rather than a curriculum, a recipe collection sold by subscription suits you better.
Recipes behind a paywallExtension Store
What an online school is built with: videos, articles, Live Video, alerts, favorites, Chatbot, AI Extension Builder, and Memberships, added on Premium, already there on Pro.
How much does a cooking school app cost?
Premium gives you the native apps; to sell access to the modules, take the Memberships option, or move to Pro, which contains it. Neither live streams, nor alerts, nor video traffic make the bill heavier.
| Premium · the school on mobile and in the browser | 55€ /month, billed yearly |
| Memberships, on top of Premium | 49€ /month |
| Pro · Memberships already there | 105€ /month, billed yearly |
On each subscription, Apple and Google take their share, GoodBarber nothing. Developer accounts are billed by the stores.
Online cooking course app: frequently asked questions
What is a culinary techniques app?
An app that teaches cooking moves on video: knife work, cooking methods, sauces, doughs, with the written method alongside. With GoodBarber, each technique becomes a module, sorted by level and reserved for subscribers, except the ones you leave open.
Can I sell the beginner level on its own?
No: everyone who subscribes gets the same access. The subscription opens every level and every world cuisine; your levers are the billing period, monthly or yearly, and the free trial.
Can my in-person workshops be paid for in the app?
No. The subscription sold in the app opens videos and recipe sheets, not a seat at a workshop; that is booked and paid outside the app.
Can a student follow a module offline?
No, the videos need a connection. Traffic is not billed, even for long modules; storage depends on your plan.
Do world cuisines need a separate plan?
No: one section per cuisine, opened by the same subscription as the levels.
Which GoodBarber plan for an online cooking school?
Either Premium with the Memberships option, or Pro, which ships with it. Selling also requires a running web version, attached to a domain that belongs to you.
