FetchDish

No ads. No life stories. Just recipes.

Download for Mac

Scroll

Every recipe site makes you scroll through a novel before you get to the ingredients.

FetchDish strips that out. You paste a URL, you get the recipe. Nothing else — no pop-ups, no autoplay videos, no grandmother's seven-paragraph origin story. Just what you came for.

Built by one person.

Ferenc Paczka — the Software Cook — is a digital artist and independent developer based in Marin County, California.

FetchDish began as plain frustration: every recipe he opened buried the ingredients under autoplay videos, pop-ups and a thousand-word memoir. Every site was broken the same way, and no one had fixed it. So he did.

FetchDish never stores or takes your information. No accounts, no tracking, no cloud — your recipes live on your Mac, and only your Mac.

Privacy & Disclaimer

FetchDish never stores, collects, or transmits your personal information. There are no accounts, no analytics, and no cloud sync — every recipe you save lives only on your Mac.

Recipe extraction happens on your device. We don't see the URLs you paste, the recipes you keep, or anything about how you cook.
