Sift keeps your recipes in a private cookbook only your group can see — never public. Save them from anywhere: a food blog, a TikTok, even one ChatGPT or Claude wrote. When the collection’s ready, export it as a designed, print-ready book.
The recipe from a video you’ll never scroll back to. The one a friend texted you. The one you asked an AI to make up. Paste the link — or the text, or a photo of a card — and Sift keeps just the ingredients and steps. No headnote, no ad breaks, no fourteen paragraphs about someone’s trip to Tuscany.
Blogs, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, ChatGPT, Claude, or a photo of a recipe card. If it's a recipe, Sift can read it — and it drops everything that isn't.
Start a cookbook and invite the people who cook with you. Everyone adds their recipes, arranges the pages, and picks the cover.
Export a designed, one-recipe-per-page cookbook — a print-ready PDF to keep or have bound. Ordering a printed copy through Sift is coming soon.
Your recipes are yours alone until you put them in a cookbook and invite someone. Even then, they’re visible only to that group. Nothing on Sift is ever public — no feed, no discovery, no algorithm studying what you eat. It’s the one recipe app that isn’t trying to turn your kitchen into content.
A wedding gift. A new-baby welcome. Five siblings compiling a parent’s recipes so they don’t get lost. Grandma’s handwritten cards and the holiday dishes nobody ever wrote down, in one place — laid out, sectioned, and ready for the printer.
No life story, no ad breaks, no fourteen paragraphs before the recipe. Just what you need to cook.
Filter and sort by cuisine, dish type, rating, or what's in it. Search covers ingredients and steps, not just the title.
See your recipes as a tidy list, a compact grid, or a Pinterest-style wall — whichever way you think.
A step says “add the flour” — tap it and see exactly how much, scaled to your serving size.
Full-screen, one step at a time, screen stays awake. Built for a phone propped on the counter.
