Save recipes from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube & food blogs in one tap. Meal Brain pulls out the ingredients and steps, builds your weekly meal plan, writes your grocery list — then walks you through cooking like a chef standing next to you. Stop scrolling through saved videos you never actually cook. SAVE RECIPES FROM ANYWHERE TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, food blogs — share or paste a link and Meal Brain automatically extracts the ingredient list and step-by-step instructions. No typing, no rewatching, no lost bookmarks. COLLECTIONS THAT ORGANIZE THEMSELVES Tell Meal Brain once how you like things sorted — "quick dinners", "high-protein breakfasts", "Italian" — and AI files every new recipe into the right collection automatically. Your cookbook stays organized without you lifting a finger. COOKING ASSISTANT — LIKE A CHEF BY YOUR SIDE Cook step by step with tips the original recipe never gave you: "sauté until the onions turn translucent", "the sauce should smell like garlic, not burn". Your screen stays on, and you always know exactly what to do — even with a recipe you've never tried. MACROS FOR EVERY RECIPE Calories, protein, carbs and fat calculated automatically for every saved recipe. Tracking your diet? See the macros before you start cooking. PLAN YOUR WHOLE WEEK IN 5 MINUTES Drag recipes into your weekly meal plan — breakfast, lunch and dinner in one view. Five minutes of planning once a week instead of the daily "what's for dinner?" panic. GROCERY LIST WRITES ITSELF Your meal plan turns into a ready-made grocery list — every ingredient and quantity from the recipes you planned. Walk in, check off, walk out. Zero manual typing. FIND ANY RECIPE IN SECONDS Search by name, ingredient or cuisine. Filter your collections and find dinner inspiration faster than TikTok would even load. HOW IT WORKS 1.
