How it works
Text the link to Chive, the same way you would text it to a friend.
AI watches the video and pulls out structured knowledge — ingredients, steps, key points — in under a minute.
Search by topic, ingredient, person, or keyword. Find exactly what you need, when you need it.
Recipe-focused, generates grocery lists, meal planning. Great if you only save cooking content.
Recipe-only. If you save a workout, a finance tip, or a science explainer from TikTok, Recime can't help. No support for Instagram, YouTube, or X threads.
Works for any content type — recipes, tutorials, workouts, educational videos, comedy, travel tips, viral threads. Any platform. AI extracts the structure whether it's an ingredient list or a set of exercises or a list of travel recommendations.

FAQ
Chive is a broader alternative to Recime. Both save recipes from TikTok, but Chive also handles workouts, tutorials, educational content, comedy, and X threads. If you save more than just recipes, Chive covers the full range.
Grocery list generation is on the Chive roadmap. Currently Chive extracts and organizes recipe ingredients in a searchable format, but does not automatically build a grocery list.
Yes. Chive supports TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube, and X — the same platforms Recime covers for recipes, plus more.
Chive extracts non-recipe content — workout exercises and reps, tutorial steps and tools, educational key claims, interview insights, comedy context, and thread summaries. Recime is designed only for recipes.
Both work well for recipes. Recime adds meal planning and grocery list features that Chive doesn't have yet. If you save other types of content too, Chive handles everything in one place.
