About

Built by home cooks,
for home cooks.

No venture capital. No growth team. No reason to ever put your recipes behind a paywall.

Why we built it

Recipe apps forgot they're for cooking.

Every recipe app starts simple, then slowly fills up with ads, paywalls, and features nobody asked for. You open the app to check an ingredient and end up scrolling past pop-ups, autoplay videos, and someone's vacation story.

The recipe is still in there somewhere — buried under everything else. We got tired of it. So we built something different.

The fastest path from craving to dinner shouldn't include a cookie banner.

What it is

A calm vault for the recipes you actually cook.

Paste a URL and AI lifts the ingredients and method — nothing else. Organize by category, generate grocery lists, share with family. Cook it tonight, print it tomorrow.

No ads. No subscription tiers. No social feed. No streaks, badges, or notifications begging you to come back. Just your recipes, in one quiet place.

The promise

Free, forever. And we mean it.

OurRecipes is a small project built by a home cook for home cooks. No venture capital, no growth targets, no investors expecting a return — which means no reason to ever charge you for the core experience.

Always free

The vault, imports, grocery lists, and sharing stay free. Period.

No ads

Not now, not later. Your kitchen isn't an ad surface.

Yours to keep

Export anytime. Your recipes belong to you, not us.

Cook well. Eat together. Keep the recipes.
