ReciMe saves recipes off the internet. Well Stockd cooks them from your fridge.
ReciMe is a recipe importer and organiser: free for five imports a week, and $39.99 a year in the United States for Plus. Exporting your own recipes is itself a Plus feature, one recipe at a time. If the collection is the point, it is good at that. If cooking from what you already own is the point, this is the comparison.
What you keep
- Your own recipes, typed or pasted in. Free holds five, Pro makes them unlimited.
- Cookbooks and a meal plan, on Pro, that the household shares.
- A grocery list sorted for the aisle, with a one-tap Walmart cart.
- About 3,950 meal-kit-style recipes you did not have to import one at a time.
What it costs
| ReciMe | Well Stockd | |
|---|---|---|
| Price, September 2026 | ReciMe Plus is $39.99 a year in the United States. No monthly figure is published on a ReciMe page, so none is quoted here. | Free forever for the cooking loop. Pro is $4.99 a month or $39 a year, which is two months free. |
| Free tier | Five recipe imports a week, plus grocery lists, meal plans and cookbooks. Export and print are excluded from free. | Inventory with expiry tracking, the full catalog, can-make matching, the shopping list, the Walmart cart and cook mode. Two lists and five of your own recipes. |
| Trial | 7 days of ReciMe Plus. Recipes imported during the trial stay saved afterwards. | 7 days of full Pro, no card. |
| What matters | ReciMe | Well Stockd |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Alive and very actively updated, with an iOS release in September 2026. | Live. The kitchen loop is the whole product rather than a side feature. |
| Getting your data out | Paywalled and one at a time. Exporting or printing a recipe to PDF is a Plus benefit, and no bulk, CSV or JSON export is documented. | Your own recipes and lists sit in your account for as long as the account exists. |
| Recipe catalog | You bring your own, five web imports a week on the free tier. | About 3,950 meal-kit-style recipes, matched live against what you actually have in. |
| Pantry and fridge inventory | Not part of what ReciMe describes in its help centre, so no claim is made here. | Full fridge, freezer and pantry inventory with expiry dates and freshness-aware sorting. |
| Price of the paid tier | $39.99 a year, and export is one of the things it buys. | $39 a year, two months free, and nothing about your own data is behind it. |
What you gain
- An inventory. Your fridge, freezer and pantry, with quantities, in one place.
- Expiry dates. The app warns you before something goes off and sorts the oldest to the top. Free on every account.
- Can-make matching. Every recipe says whether you can cook it tonight with what you already have.
- A shopping list that is a gap list. It holds what you do not already own, and one tap sends it to a Walmart cart. Any store works.
- Household sync. One shared kitchen, so nobody comes home with the second bag of rice.
The honest trade-off
What you may miss: ReciMe’s import from social video and the web is better than anything here. If your recipes come from reels and blog posts, it will capture them and Well Stockd will not. Our catalog is fixed at about 3,950 recipes plus whatever you add yourself.
When you should stay with ReciMe
A comparison page that cannot name a reason to pick the other product is an advert. These are the cases where ReciMe is the better call:
- You collect recipes from social video and the web, and capturing them is the whole job.
- You do not want an inventory, only a tidy cookbook.
How to move off ReciMe
- Export before you cancel, because export is a Plus feature. Open each recipe, use the share icon, and save it as a PDF or print it. There is no bulk export.
- Do the export while the subscription is still live. On the free tier, export and print are switched off.
- Search your regulars in the catalog first, so you only re-enter the genuinely personal ones.
- Stock the fridge, freezer and pantry, and the catalog narrows to what you can cook tonight.
- Create a free account. Confirm your email and 7 days of full Pro start, with no card.
- In Settings, open “Refer friends & earn Pro,” choose ReciMe, and claim your one-time switch offer of 3 free months.
The offer
ReciMe switchers get 3 free months of Well Stockd Pro: the planner, household sync, the hands-free cook assistant, custom substitutions and unlimited lists and recipes. It is one claim per account, in Settings, through the founding window. After that, Pro is $4.99 a month or $39 a year. The cooking loop stays free either way.
