Welcome to Forktastic

Forktastic is a recipe management app that turns every recipe you find online into something you can cook from, plan with, and share. It runs on iOS, Android, and the web, and it keeps your recipes synced across every device you sign in on.

This page is a 60-second tour. After this, head to Create your account to sign up, or jump straight to Importing recipes if you already have an account.

What you can do

Forktastic is organized around six things people actually do with recipes:

  1. Save recipes from anywhere. Paste a URL, share a TikTok, take a photo of a printed recipe — Forktastic’s AI extracts the ingredients, instructions, and nutrition automatically. See Importing recipes.
  2. Organize them into cookbooks. Group recipes into named cookbooks (e.g. “Weeknight Dinners”, “Mom’s Recipes”) that you can search, browse, and share. See Cookbooks.
  3. Plan your week. Drag recipes into breakfast / lunch / dinner / snack slots on a calendar and see your weekly nutrition. See Meal planning.
  4. Build a grocery list. Add ingredients from any recipe with one tap, or auto-populate from your meal plan. Optionally shop with Instacart. See Grocery list.
  5. Cook hands-free. Cook Mode shows large step-by-step instructions, keeps the screen awake, and responds to voice commands like “next” and “previous”. See Cook Mode.
  6. Share with your family. Create a family group and share cookbooks, recipes, and grocery lists with the people you cook with. See Family Sharing.
