Three steps. Twenty seconds.

01

Copy the Instagram link

Tap the share icon on any reel or post and choose Copy Link. Works with reels, posts, and stories.

02

Open ChefExtract

ChefExtract detects the link from your clipboard automatically. One tap on Extract.

03

Cook from your cookbook

The recipe is saved with ingredients, steps, prep + cook time, and a link back to the original post.

Built for Instagram cooking videos

Not just another link parser.

Reads the video — not just the caption

Captions are often missing the actual quantities. ChefExtract analyses the video frames, on-screen text overlays, and audio narration to capture what the creator actually says.

Clean ingredient lists

Structured measurements, not 'a glug of oil and a handful of pasta.' Edit anything you want before saving.

Cook offline

Once saved, recipes live on your phone. No internet, no autoplay, no scrolling — just the recipe.

Credit the creator

Every saved recipe keeps a link back to the original Instagram post so you can rewatch, comment, or follow.
