What you gain
- An inventory. Your fridge, freezer and pantry, with quantities, in one place.
- Best-by dates. The app shows estimates and sorts items needing attention near 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 reflects what you already own. Use it at any store, or check the matches and send it to a Walmart or Kroger cart.
- Pro household sync. One shared kitchen for members, rather than separate inventories.
The honest trade-off
What you may miss: ReciMe focuses on social video and web recipe capture. Well Stockd imports public recipe pages, and AI reads the text of a page that has no recipe data, but it can’t import private posts. Our catalog is more than 5,700 recipes plus what you add yourself.
When you should stay with ReciMe
Stay with ReciMe if:
- 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 and confirm your email. Seven days of full Pro start right then, with no card.
Founding offer ended
