Visit any recipe page, click the Recipe-Clipper icon in your browser toolbar. The side panel opens and the recipe is extracted automatically. Works on 95%+ of recipe sites.
Recipe-Clipper is available on Chrome, Firefox, and Edge. Safari support is coming soon—you can join the waitlist on our homepage.
This is standard for any recently published Chrome extension. Chrome shows this warning until an extension builds up enough installs and history. It's safe to click "Continue to install" — the warning will disappear on its own as more people use Recipe-Clipper.
Yes! The free tier gives you 20 recipe saves in your first week, then 5 per month. Pro ($6.99/mo) gives unlimited saves and sharing. Premium ($11.99/mo or $69.99 lifetime) unlocks all features including photo import, cook mode, offline access, and cookbook PDF download.
Take up to 4 photos of a handwritten recipe, cookbook page, or restaurant menu. Our AI extracts the text into a clean digital recipe. Your original photos are preserved permanently. Premium feature — 50 imports per month, or 100 per month with a Lifetime plan.
Premium users can install Recipe-Clipper as an app on their phone or desktop. Previously viewed recipes are cached locally and work without WiFi—including cook mode with timers and ingredient checkoff. Perfect for the kitchen.
Premium users can download their entire cookbook as a PDF (with cover page, table of contents, and folder groupings) or as a JSON file for full data portability. Your recipes are always yours—no lock-in.
Pro and Premium users can share any saved recipe via a public link. The shared page includes the full recipe with a link back to Recipe-Clipper.
Prep It is Recipe-Clipper's built-in AI cooking assistant. Ask it to find recipes, plan meals, suggest ingredient substitutions, estimate calories, build shopping lists, or answer any cooking question. Every new account gets 30 days of unlimited Prep It. After that, free users get 3 conversations per month — and Pro and Premium users get unlimited. Power users on any tier can optionally connect their own Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google API key. Open Prep It from the navigation bar or visit /prep.
Go to Profile in the app, click "Manage Subscription" to open the Stripe Customer Portal. You can cancel, change plans, or update payment info there. Your saved recipes remain accessible on the free tier after cancellation.

Yes. Recipe-Clipper has built-in importers for Paprika and Plan to Eat. Go to your cookbook, click “Import,” choose your source app, and upload your export file. Your entire collection is imported in one step with categories automatically converted to folders.
Paprika: Export your recipes as a .paprikarecipes file from Paprika, then upload it to Recipe-Clipper.
Plan to Eat: Export your recipes as a .txt file from Plan to Eat, then upload it to Recipe-Clipper.
For other apps like Copy Me That or Mela, you can use Recipe-Clipper's photo import — take a screenshot of each recipe and the AI will digitize it. Or revisit the original websites and clip them directly with the extension.
You can already use your cookbook, cook mode, and all premium features on your phone through the web app. The one thing missing is the browser extension for clipping — Safari doesn't support extensions the way Chrome, Firefox, and Edge do. We're building a native iOS app to solve that.
