Digitise your recipe book in hours, not months
Your recipes live in notebooks, post-its, phone photos and stray PDFs. Every new cook costs you time. Digitising the recipe book brings order to your kitchen and protects a critical business asset. Here's how to do it without losing your mind.
Why digitising is urgent
Your kitchen's knowledge lives in the chef's head and in notebooks. The day that person leaves, the recipe book leaves too. Digitising turns that know-how into a business asset: replicable, searchable and shareable.
The manual method no longer pays off
Manually transcribing each recipe into a template takes 30-60 minutes per spec. For 100 recipes that's 50-100 hours of admin. AI brings it down to seconds per spec while preserving the original content.
Inputs RecipeRewriter Pro accepts
Pasted text, handwritten recipe photo, photo of a book page, PDF (typed or scanned) and Word files. AI extracts ingredients, quantities and method and returns a structured spec with costing and allergens.
Start with the 20 dishes you serve most
Apply the 80/20 rule: 20 dishes account for 80% of revenue. Digitise those first for immediate impact. The rest of the recipe book can be added as new dishes hit the menu.

Does it work with handwritten recipes?
Yes. AI recognises common handwriting in Spanish, English, French and Italian. If the writing is very complex you can always edit the result.
Are my recipes private?
Yes. Only you access your recipe book. We don't use your recipes to train models.
Can I download my whole recipe book?
Yes, spec by spec in PDF or HTML. Bulk export is on the roadmap.
How long to digitise 100 recipes?
If you have them in digital format (PDF, photo), 1-2 hours total. AI processes each one in 20-40 seconds.
Do I lose the chef's touch using AI?
No. AI respects your original recipe. It only adds structure, costing and allergens. You review and edit.
