From beta testers

People who actually cook with it.

ForkThis is in private beta. Here's what early users are saying.

★★★★★

"The pantry matching alone is worth it. I had chicken thighs expiring tomorrow and ForkThis surfaced 4 recipes I could make that night. Nothing else I've tried does this."

"Cook mode is genuinely great. My phone stays on, reads each step out loud, and I can swipe without touching the screen with messy hands. No more sticky notes on the counter."

The problem

Most recipe apps are a dead end.

They're great at storing recipes. Terrible at helping you use them.

ForkThis is different

Import once. Cook smarter. Waste nothing.

One app that connects the dots between your recipes and your kitchen.

Supported platforms

If you saved it anywhere, ForkThis can import it.

40+ platforms and growing. Paste a link — get a recipe.

Pricing

Honest pricing.
No surprises.

Most features are completely free. The paid tier only exists because AI recipe parsing has a real cost per use.

Save 33%
Free
For casual cooks and curious testers.
$ 0 / month
No credit card required. Ever.
  • 10 recipe imports per month
  • Pantry tracking — unlimited items
  • Expiration date tracking
  • "What can I make?" matching
  • Smart grocery lists

  • Meal planning calendar
  • Recipe discovery library

Why is there a paid tier at all? Every recipe import runs an AI model to parse ingredients and steps from TikTok captions, Instagram posts, and recipe websites. That API call has a real cost per use. Free covers most casual users. Plus is priced at the minimum that keeps the service running sustainably — not to maximize revenue.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

How does recipe importing actually work? +

You paste any URL into ForkThis. For standard recipe websites, we read the structured recipe data directly from the page. For TikTok and Instagram, we use AI to parse the caption and — for Plus users — transcribe the video audio to extract recipe details that aren't in the caption. YouTube videos are also transcribed. The result is a fully structured recipe with ingredients, steps, cook time, and serving count.

Does it work with private TikTok or Instagram accounts? +

ForkThis can import public posts from TikTok and Instagram. Private accounts require you to be following them and logged in — we recommend using the share link from within the app for the best results. For private posts, you can also paste the recipe text directly and ForkThis will parse it.

Is my pantry data private? +

Yes. Your pantry, recipes, and personal data are stored in your account and never shared or sold. We don't use your recipe data to train AI models. You can delete your account and all data at any time from Settings. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

What happens when I hit the 10 import limit on Free? +

All other features — pantry tracking, cook mode, meal planning, grocery lists, the recipe discovery library — remain fully available. Only new URL imports are paused until the next month or until you upgrade to Plus. Your existing imported recipes are never locked.

Can I import from Paprika or other recipe managers? +

Yes — ForkThis supports importing your existing recipe library from Paprika. Export your Paprika recipes as a .paprikarecipes file and import it in the app. We plan to add more import sources based on user demand. Text-based recipe input (paste the recipe text directly) also works for any format.

Is ForkThis a PWA — do I need to install it? +

ForkThis is a Progressive Web App — it runs in your browser and can be installed to your home screen on iOS and Android for a native app experience. No App Store required. It works offline for browsing your saved recipes and pantry once you've loaded the app. Visit forkthis.app to get started instantly.

What languages does ForkThis support? +

ForkThis supports 11 languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Japanese, Korean, Chinese (Simplified), and Arabic. Recipes imported in any supported language are automatically translated to your preferred language, with the original text preserved so you can always reference it.

How does expiration tracking work if I don't know the date? +

If you don't enter an expiration date manually, ForkThis estimates shelf life using a built-in database of ~300 common ingredients. Chicken gets 2 days, fresh herbs get 7, canned goods get 3 years — and so on. Items are color-coded: green (fresh), yellow (use within 3 days), red (expires today or tomorrow). The "Cook Tonight" view prioritizes recipes that use your most urgent ingredients first.

Is there a limit on pantry items or grocery lists? +

No. Pantry tracking, grocery lists, and meal planning are unlimited on all tiers — Free and Plus. Only new recipe URL imports are capped on the Free plan (10/month). Your existing imported recipes, pantry, and all other features always remain fully available with no artificial limits.
