Privacy Policy
Your blends live on your phone. We don’t run a SpiceHack user account system,
we don’t sell spice data, and we don’t sprinkle ad trackers on your paprika.
The lab notebook stays in your pocket, next to the crumbs.

What SpiceHack is
SpiceHack is a lab notebook for reverse-engineering commercial spice blends from label ingredient order
into estimated percentages, then refining them in a workbench and saving them locally.
Estimates are guidance, not lab assays. SpiceHack is not affiliated with any spice brand.
