How it works

Three steps. That's the whole manual.

  1. Open any recipe

    A food blog, a big recipe site, a magazine — in English, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French or Japanese.

  2. Click the chef hat

    Or press Alt + Shift + R. ChefCard finds the recipe and opens it as a clean card, right on the page.

  3. Cook

    Set the servings, pick your units, tap a time to start a timer — or go full screen with Cook mode.

Try it right here

Go on, break the recipe.

Double the cookies, make pancakes for one, turn carbonara into ounces. Tap a cooking time to start a real timer.

This is the real ChefCard engine, running in your browser — the same one inside the extension.

      Everything a cook needs

      Small card, big kitchen.

      Every feature is built for the moment you're standing at the counter with flour on your hands.

      Cups to grams, done right

      A cup of flour isn't a cup of honey. ChefCard knows the weight of over 100 ingredients, keeps small spoon amounts as spoons, and converts oven temperatures and pan sizes inside the steps.

      Prop up the laptop and cook. Each step fills the screen with the ingredients it uses, and the timers keep running while you move on.

      Our kitchen rules

      Good for cooks.
      Fair to the people who write recipes.

      ChefCard makes recipes easier to follow, never easier to steal.

      01

      Credit, always

      Every card, print and share names the original site and links back to it. The recipe stays on its page — ChefCard only changes how you see it.

      02

      Private by design

      ChefCard runs on your computer. No account, no tracking, and your recipes are never sent to our servers — we don't have any to send them to.

      03

      Quiet until you click

      It reads a page only when you press the chef hat. No background scanning, no "access to all sites" permission.

      Questions

      Questions, answered.

      Which recipe sites does it work on?

      Almost all of them. Most recipe sites describe their recipes in a standard format that search engines read, and ChefCard reads it too. When a site doesn't, ChefCard looks for the ingredients and method on the page itself — in English, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French and Japanese.

      Is ChefCard an ad blocker?

      No. The site keeps its ads, because they pay the people who write the recipes. ChefCard opens the recipe in a clean card on top of the page and pauses videos that play on their own, so you can cook in peace. Close the card and the page is exactly as it was.

      How accurate are the gram conversions?

      Each ingredient has its own weight: a cup of flour is about 125 g, a cup of honey about 340 g. Our table covers over 100 common ingredients, checked against nine kitchen references. When an ingredient isn't in the table, ChefCard marks the amount with ≈ so you know it's an estimate. Small amounts like a teaspoon of salt stay as spoons.

      Does it work on my phone or tablet?

      Not yet — Chrome on phones doesn't support extensions. ChefCard works in Chrome on Windows, Mac, Linux and ChromeOS. A ChefCard app for iPhone and Android is on the way.

      Do you see the recipes I open or save?

      No. Everything happens on your computer and your recipe box lives in your browser. There's no account and no tracking. Read the privacy policy.

      What does Pro add, and can I cancel?

      Pro translates whole recipes into your language (on your computer), keeps an unlimited recipe box, merges all your recipes into one shopping list and prints without the ChefCard footer. It costs $9.99 a year, $1.99 a month, or $24.99 once for life. Try it free for 7 days with no card; cancel anytime and the free features keep working.

      Your next recipe is one click away.

      Add ChefCard to Chrome, open any recipe and press the chef hat. Free, private, and ready in three seconds.
