Import a recipe from any website in one click

AIfeature

Found a recipe you love while browsing the web? With Cookfolio, you no longer need to copy and paste it manually. Just paste the link and the app does the rest.

How it works

  1. Open Cookfolio and tap the ”+” button to create a new recipe
  2. Choose “Import from a link” from the menu
  3. Paste the URL of the recipe page (AllRecipes, BBC Good Food, Food Network, etc.)
  4. The app automatically extracts the title, ingredients, steps, cooking times, and photo
  5. Review and adjust the result before saving

Extraction takes just a few seconds. The recipe is then fully editable in your collection.

Which websites does it work with?

Cookfolio works with the vast majority of recipe websites. Most popular sites (AllRecipes, BBC Good Food, Food Network, Epicurious, Bon Appetit, Serious Eats, etc.) use structured data that Cookfolio recognizes instantly.

For websites that don’t use this format, AI takes over and analyzes the page content to extract the recipe.

Is the photo imported too?

Yes. Cookfolio automatically retrieves the main recipe photo from the website. It’s added to your recipe card and you can crop or replace it.

What are the advantages over copy-paste?

  • Fast: one link, no need to select and copy each section
  • Structured: ingredients are separated with quantities and units, steps are numbered
  • Photo included: no need to download the image separately
  • Source saved: the original URL is saved in the recipe card

Web import joins Cookfolio’s other import methods:

  • Photo: photograph a handwritten recipe or a cookbook page
  • File: import a PDF, Word, or text file
  • Web link: paste a URL from any recipe website

All methods share the same quota: 1 free import on the free plan, unlimited on Pro.
