Your starter doesn't care about 12-hour rules. It cares about temperature. Autolyse is a sourdough tracker that actually gets that — built around how real home bakers actually bake.
Track your starter, predict peak with temperature-aware timing, run your bake stage-by-stage, and keep a journal worth re-reading next Sunday. No subscriptions. No ads. No account. No tracking.
WHAT AUTOLYSE DOES
Peak prediction that understands your kitchen
Log the ambient temperature when you feed, and Autolyse tells you a realistic peak window, not a generic six hours.
A real bake journal
Stage-by-stage timing for same-day and overnight schedules, crumb photos, star ratings, and the notes you'll actually read next time.
Baker's math, solved
Dial in dough weight, hydration, levain, and salt percentages. Save go-to formulas. Scale cleanly.
Multiple starters, named
Doughlores, Breadley, the rye experiment. Each with their own flour blend and feeding schedule.
Multi-component flour blends
Model 80/20 bread flour and whole wheat, or any other blend you actually mix. Hydration gets calculated correctly.
Your data, your device
Everything stays on your phone. Syncs across your Apple devices via iCloud. Nothing sent to any server of mine, because there are no servers of mine.
PRO UNLOCK — $6.99 ONCE, FOREVER
Free to try with one starter, full bake tracking, baker's math, and CSV export. One-time $6.99 unlock adds multiple starters, multi-component flour blends, weekly insights, bake streaks, starter age milestones, and beautiful share cards for your best crumbs. No subscription. No upsells. No hidden tiers.
WHO IT'S FOR
Home bakers who've gotten serious. You've got a named starter. You care about hydration. You know what autolyse means. You want an app that respects the craft — not a food app that happens to have a starter tab.
WHAT IT ISN'T
No community feed. No leaderboards. No "share your bake" pressure. No ads chasing you. This is a private, quiet tool — like a proper notebook.
PRIVACY
Autolyse collects no personal data. No analytics SDKs, no crash reporters of my own, no trackers. Read the full policy at autolyse.charithp.com/privacy.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Autolyse 1.2 helps with the stage where most loaves go wrong: bulk ferment.
• Bulk ferment tracker. See when your dough will be ready to shape, adjusted for your kitchen temperature. Log how far a small jar of dough has risen and the estimate sharpens. You'll get a notification when bulk is due.
• Ready by (Pro). Pick when you want the loaf out of the oven, and Autolyse works the schedule backwards.
• Bake diagnosis (Pro). Dense, flat or too sour? Pick what went wrong and get likely causes from your own temperatures and timings.
• Dough temp calculator (Pro). Find the water temperature that lands your dough where you want it.
• Pro features are now clearly marked, and Settings shows your Pro status, with Restore Purchases.
• Fixed: unlocking Pro from New Bake or the flour blend editor now opens the purchase screen.
Thanks for baking with Autolyse.
