Cookoff - Food Contest Voting

Run your chili cook-off, BBQ contest, or holiday bake-off the right way - guests vote on their phones, scores roll in live, and the app crowns the winner.

No more paper ballots, no more spreadsheets, no more "wait who won?" awkwardness.

FREE for any event.

HOST IN MINUTES
Set up a cookoff, add your dishes, and share a QR code. Guests join instantly on their phones - no account required. Real-time voting starts immediately.

FLEXIBLE VOTING STYLES
- Points (1-5 per dish): Fast, intuitive. Perfect for casual friend groups and office cook-offs.
- Scoring (star ratings per criterion): Custom criteria like Presentation, Taste, Aroma, and Creativity, scored out of 5 stars or 10. Ideal for serious competitions with structured judging.

BLIND TASTING
Hide the cooks' names - or the dish names too - so scores land on the food instead of the friendship. Each dish gets a permanent numbered table card to print or place, and everyone is revealed the moment you publish results.

VOTE, THEN THINK IT OVER
Judges can revisit and change their scores any time before results are published. Nothing is locked in until the host says so.

REAL-TIME RESULTS
Watch votes come in live. The results dashboard updates instantly as each judge submits. No waiting, no tallying, no arguments about who won. Set a minimum number of judges before a dish can place, so one enthusiastic vote can't outrank a dish the whole room tasted.

WINNER BADGES
Automatically calculate winners by category. Generate and share shareable winner badges - perfect for announcing results on social media or group chats.

COLLECT TROPHIES
Place top-3 in a cookoff and unwrap a one-of-a-kind trophy. Save them to your Trophy Case, share to Instagram Stories, or send to the group chat - your win, proof it happened.

JUDGE CARDS
Everyone who scored a dish gets a shareable judge card - a keepsake ticket showing which of their picks matched the winner. Hosts can email results and judge cards to every voter with one tap.

WHY COOKOFF INSTEAD OF GOOGLE FORMS?
