Use my ReelsMeals cookbook. Plan five weeknight dinners from recipes I saved but haven't cooked yet. Keep them under 35 minutes and reuse ingredients where you can. Give me the plan, a shopping list, and a link back to each original recipe.
Turn saved recipe videos into dinner-ready data your agent can use.
Import Reels, TikToks, YouTube videos, recipe sites, and paper cards into one searchable cookbook. Then give AI the source-backed recipe data it needs before it helps decide what to cook.
Structured ingredients, steps, tags, and source links. Works with Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, paper scans, and most recipe blogs.
Recipe apps save links. Dinner still takes the work.
The hard part is not collecting another recipe. It is deciding what to cook, finding the right one again, and turning the inspiration into an actual meal.
Save recipes across platforms, paper, and group chats
Still decide dinner from scratch
Order takeout or cook the same fallback again
From saved video to cooked dinner
Build the recipe layer first. Then your AI tools have real ingredients, source links, and cooking steps to work with.
Import
Paste one link, bulk-import a saved list, or scan a paper card from your kitchen.
Structure
AI turns messy captions, videos, web pages, and photos into searchable ingredients and steps.
Cook and reuse
Search every saved recipe, cook from clean steps, and hand the same structured data to your AI assistant.
Plan the week with Claude or ChatGPT.
Connect ReelsMeals to your assistant over MCP. It reads the recipes you've actually saved, plans dinners you'll actually cook, and builds the shopping list, with every suggestion linked back to the original recipe and creator.
Weekly meal plans
Turn the recipes you already saved into a balanced week in one prompt, or build it yourself in the planner.
Shopping list, done
Every plan rolls up into one shopping list, with duplicate ingredients merged so you shop the whole week at once.
Works with Claude & ChatGPT
Connect over MCP with a personal API key you create and revoke in Settings. Access is scoped and re-checked on every call.
Source-backed, not made up
Cards keep the original link, creator, ingredients, steps, tags, and cooked history, so your assistant works from your real recipes and always points back to the source.
Your keys, your rules
Personal API keys are scoped for read, import, planning, and shopping-list access, and subscription access is checked on every call. Create or revoke them anytime in Settings.

“Like many, I had recipes scattered across social media and beyond, and most of them ended up forgotten. ReelsMeals solves that chaos: by bringing inspiration into one place, you can turn saved recipes into shared meals, and eat better together.”
I used to sort through screenshots and vague bookmarks to cook something I saw once. It was so frustrating I just gave up and made the same thing again.
Now I can finally pull up any saved recipe instantly, without having to watch a video trying to figure out the recipe. It's like I have my own personal cookbook.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about saving, scanning, and cooking with ReelsMeals.
- ReelsMeals is an AI-ready cookbook for the recipes you already save across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, food blogs, and paper cards. It turns messy sources into structured recipe cards so you can search them, cook from them, and give AI assistants real recipe data to work with.
The flow is simple:
- Copy the URL (link) of the recipe page, blog post, or social media video.
- Paste the URL directly into your ReelsMeals dashboard.
- ReelsMeals attempts to extract ingredients, steps, source details, and useful metadata.
- Your AI assistant can then search that cookbook instead of guessing from a random prompt.
Yes! ReelsMeals now supports paper recipe scanning. You can:
- Take photos directly with your phone camera. Great for recipes on paper, handwritten cards, or cookbook pages.
- Upload images from your device by drag and drop, or select multiple photos.
- Multi-page support: scanning a recipe that spans multiple pages? Just add all the photos and our AI will combine them into one structured recipe.
The AI reads both printed and handwritten text, extracts ingredients with measurements, and organizes everything into a structured recipe card, just like it does with online recipes. Scanning is included on paid and trial accounts.
You can access the scanner from the “Scan Recipe” tab on the homepage, or from the Add Recipe button on your dashboard.
- Start the Monthly plan with a 7-day trial for €0. Stripe collects a card up front so the account can unlock unlimited recipe extraction, bulk import, paper scans, and structured cookbook features immediately. Cancel before the trial ends and you are not charged. After the trial, the plan is €7.99/month unless you choose Founding Member instead.
- ReelsMeals publishes AI discovery metadata such as
llms.txt, an OpenAPI description, and an agent skill file. That gives assistants structured context about what ReelsMeals can do today: discover public recipes, understand recipe metadata, and route users into extraction flows. The product direction is to make your private cookbook usable by agents for planning, shopping-list preparation, and cooking workflows. - ReelsMeals is a web application. This means you access it through your internet browser (like Chrome, Safari, Firefox) on any device with an internet connection: your phone, tablet, or computer. You don't need to download it from an app store like some alternatives (e.g., Recime.app); just visit our website and log in.
We now offer PWA functionality: ReelsMeals can be installed as a Progressive Web App (PWA) directly to your home screen from your browser. This gives you an app-like experience with faster loading times, without requiring an app store download.
Android users: When you install our PWA on Android devices (using Chrome), you can directly share links from other apps like Instagram, YouTube, or your browser to ReelsMeals. This makes saving recipes you discover even faster!
iOS users: While you can install ReelsMeals to your home screen through Safari's “Add to Home Screen” option, Apple does not currently support PWA share targets. This means you'll need to copy links and paste them into ReelsMeals manually on iOS devices. We're monitoring iOS PWA capabilities and will implement direct sharing if Apple adds support in the future.
ReelsMeals supports recipe extraction from:
- 350+ websites, blogs, and news sites
- Instagram Reels
- Facebook Reels
- Facebook Posts (text)
- YouTube Shorts
- TikTok Reels
New! You can now scan paper recipes by taking photos or uploading images. AI extracts the recipe just like it does from URLs.
Coming soon:
We are currently working on expanding our compatibility to include more platforms. If you have a specific website in mind that you'd like to see supported, please let us know at support@reelsmeals.com!
Bookmarks and recipe managers stop at storage. ReelsMeals is moving toward the full dinner workflow:
- Centralized Organization: All your recipes, online and paper, in one searchable collection.
- Smart Extraction: We pull ingredients and steps automatically from URLs and photos, creating complete digital recipe cards.
- Bulk Import: Bring in a whole saved list instead of adding recipes one at a time.
- Agent-readable Metadata: Give AI assistants structured recipe data instead of screenshots and half-remembered captions.
- Paper Recipe Scanner: Digitize handwritten cards, cookbook pages, and printed recipes with your camera.
- Cross-Device Access: Use your recipes on any device through our web interface.
- Automatic recipe extraction from diverse online sources is complex. While ReelsMeals strives for accuracy, sometimes formatting issues on the source site might lead to imperfect results. We are continuously improving our extraction engine. Paid and trial accounts can manually edit recipes, and we save the original link as well.
- Monthly starts with a 7-day trial for €0. Cancel before the trial ends and you are not charged. If you choose Founding Member, or if a Monthly charge has already happened, contact support within 7 days of payment and we'll help with a refund review.
