Sound familiar?
You're not alone. Recipe chaos is real.
I screenshot recipes but can never find them
buried in camera roll chaos
Half my bookmarked recipes are dead links now
thanks, internet
My mom's handwritten cards are irreplaceable
and slowly fading
"What was that amazing pasta I made?"
the eternal question
Time to turn that chaos into calm. Here's the recipe for sanity. (pun intended)
How it works
From chaos to organized in 3 steps
Bring your recipes
Paste a URL, plain text, upload a photo, or drop in a PDF. Got a messy, badly-written recipe? If you can sort of read it, our AI probably can too.
AI does the heavy lifting
Our AI reads any format — in any language — and structures everything: ingredients with amounts and units, steps, notes, tags, and cooking times. Every ingredient links to your personal food catalog.
Find anything, instantly
Search by name, filter by tags, or browse your beautifully organized collection. Your recipes, finally at your fingertips.

AI cooking assistant
Make this recipe vegan please
I've prepared a vegan version! I'm suggesting to swap butter for coconut oil and use oat milk instead of dairy. Want me to apply these changes?
I only have 4 people coming, not 6
No problem! I've adjusted all the ingredient amounts for 4 servings. Review the changes and accept when you're ready.
What can I substitute for heavy cream?
You've got options! Coconut cream works great for a dairy-free version. Or try Greek yogurt thinned with a bit of milk for a lighter take.

Questions? We've got answers.
What file types can I import?
URLs, photos (JPG, PNG, HEIC), PDFs, Word docs, or just paste plain text. If you can read it, Cookt can too. Even those blurry screenshots work surprisingly well.
Are my recipes private?
Yes, always. Your recipes are only visible to you unless you explicitly share them. We take your grandmother's secret recipes as seriously as you do.
Can I edit what the AI generates?
Absolutely. The AI gives you a great starting point, but you're always in control. Edit anything, anytime. It's your recipe collection.
Does Cookt replace my recipe images?
We generate a beautiful dish photo automatically so your collection looks cohesive. But you can upload your own photos anytime — your gorgeous food pics deserve to shine.
Can I switch between metric and imperial?
Yes! Every recipe has a one-tap toggle. For baking ingredients like flour and sugar, Cookt converts volume to weight (e.g., 1 cup flour = 120g) instead of just converting to milliliters — because your kitchen scale doesn't lie. Your preferred unit system saves globally across all recipes.
What happens to ingredients when I import a recipe?
Cookt's AI parses every ingredient into structured data — amount, unit, and food. These link to your personal food catalog automatically. Same ingredient across different recipes? Connected. Different languages? Normalized. It's all building toward smart shopping lists.
How many recipes can I save?
As many as you want — recipe storage is unlimited on every plan. AI-powered imports (from screenshots, PDFs, and URLs) are subject to monthly limits: 7 per month on Free, 50 per month on Pro. Your collection is always fully accessible regardless of your current plan.
Is Cookt really free?
Yes. The Free plan gives you 7 AI recipe imports and 30 AI chat messages every month, forever. Your recipes, storage, and organization are always unlimited. No credit card required, no time limit. When you need more AI power or upcoming premium features like shopping lists and meal planning, you can upgrade to Pro.
What happens if I hit my monthly limit?
On the Free plan, you can upgrade to Pro for more AI credits. On Pro, limits reset on your billing date each month. Either way, your existing recipes are always accessible — limits only affect new AI operations like importing recipes or chatting with Sous-chef.
Can I cancel my Pro subscription anytime?
Yes, cancel anytime from the Paddle Customer Portal — no hoops, no phone calls. Your Pro access continues until the end of your current billing period, then you revert to the Free plan. All your recipes and data stay exactly as they are.
