Wecipe: Recipe Importer
Transform Videos Into Recipes
👋 Hi Indie Hackers!
I'm excited to share Wecipe, a tool that turns recipe videos from Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube into clean, structured recipes.
The idea came from a simple frustration: I kept finding amazing recipes on social media, but cooking from a video meant constantly pausing, rewinding, and trying to remember the ingredients.
With Wecipe, you can simply share a recipe video from Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube directly with the app and get a structured recipe with ingredients and step-by-step instructions in seconds.
I'm launching early to get feedback from the community. I'd love to know:
* Would this solve a problem for you?
* What feature would make it even more useful?
Thanks for reading, and I'm looking forward to your feedback!

I wonder if the real value isn't converting videos into recipes—it's converting inspiration into something people actually cook.
A lot of recipe videos get saved and forgotten. If Wecipe consistently shortens the gap between "That looks good" and dinner on the table, that's a much stronger problem to own.
Thank you so much for this thoughtful feedback. I really appreciate your perspective, and I'll definitely take it into account. The idea of bridging the gap between inspiration and actually getting dinner on the table is exactly the kind of value we want Wecipe to deliver. It's a direction we'll continue to explore.
I'm glad it resonated.
Your reply made me think there's one strategic decision sitting underneath that direction which becomes much more important as Wecipe evolves, but I don't think I can explain the reasoning properly in a thread without oversimplifying it.
If you're interested, what's the best email to reach you on?
Thanks! The best email to reach me on is hello@wecipe[.]app
