Mob is on a mission to create a world of home cooks, because cooking changes lives.

It is the best way to eat throughout the week. It improves your health. It lifts your mood. It saves you money.

We will achieve this by building the ultimate app for home cooking. Making weekly cooking fun, easy and delicious. It will take the friction away from home cooking, so anyone can become an accomplished home cook.

It took us 24 months to reach 100k subscribers - and just seven months to double that to 200k. Our next goal: scale to over 1 million users by the end of 2027.

Behind it all is a creative, data-driven team that collaborates to build experiences that ladder up to our mission. As a fast-paced startup, our core value is simple: make it happen, succeed together.
