Work out the XP you need, how many cooks that is, and how many hours it will actually take — then see what the same hours are worth if a bot does them instead. Pick a fish once; both calculators follow it.
XP per cook is fixed by the game. XP per hour assumes roughly 1,300 cooks an hour at a bank-adjacent range — treat it as a planning figure, not a promise. Tap a card to switch fish.
Every figure above assumes you are at the keyboard for all of it. Cooking is withdraw, cook, bank, repeat — four actions, several thousand times — which is exactly the kind of thing that does not need a person doing it.

Old School RuneScape uses a fixed experience curve — each level needs roughly 10% more XP than the last. That is why level 92 is the halfway point to 99: 6,517,253 XP of the 13,034,431 needed.
The XP calculator takes the difference between your current and target level, divides by the XP per cook to get the number of cooks, and divides by the fish's XP per hour to get the time. The profit calculator multiplies that fish's GP per hour by your bot hours, converts at your gold rate, and subtracts bond and proxy costs.
Rates assume a heat source next to a bank, which is why the script only runs two places: the Rogues’ Den range on members and the fire by Draynor bank on free-to-play. Walking is where a Cooking rate goes to die. Note that a fire burns more food than a range at the same level, so the free-to-play route wants a slightly lower-tier fish.
Roughly 45–100 hours depending on what you cook. Anglerfish at 230 XP each is about 43.6 hours of clicking; tuna at 100 XP each is over 100. Wine-making is faster still but costs a great deal more.
Of the fish, anglerfish at 230 XP each — roughly 299,000 XP an hour at a bank-adjacent range. Wine-making beats it outright at 400k+ an hour if budget is no object.
13,034,431 XP from level 1. Level 92 is 6,517,253 — the halfway point in XP, not level 50.
Sharks give 210 XP each, so about 62,000 from level 1. Anglerfish need around 56,700 and tuna over 130,000.
Two places: the Rogues’ Den range in Burthorpe on members, and the fire by Draynor bank on free-to-play. Both have the heat source next to the bank, which is why almost none of the hour goes into walking.
Cook a few levels below your ceiling, use a range rather than a fire where you can — a fire burns more at the same level — and get cooking gauntlets. Sharks stop burning at 94 with them.
It depends entirely on the fish and the gold price. At $0.20 per million, sharks and anglerfish clear a profit at six hours a day; tuna and lobster do not. Use the calculator above with your own gold rate rather than trusting a default.
Use the profit calculator above. At sharks, six hours a day for thirty days is about 54M GP per bot — roughly $10.85 at 5M GP to the dollar, before bond and proxy costs of about $6.07.
