What is Cha

Built for people who take tea seriously

Cha is not a timer app with a recipe list. It is a complete tea companion — covering the cultures, philosophy, and history of eight great tea nations, with precision brewing guidance, personal journalling, and an AI advisor that knows its subject deeply.

Whether you are just discovering gongfu cha, tracking your way through a collection of Taiwanese oolongs, or looking for the perfect temperature to brew a first-flush Darjeeling — Cha was built for you.
