I got so frustrated with recipe sites that I built an app to fix them — here's what I shipped

by

Hey Product Hunt! 👋

I just shipped my first app — CleanCook.

The idea came from pure frustration. Every time I tried to cook something new, I'd open a recipe site and get hit with pop-ups, ads, and a 2,000 word life story before seeing a single ingredient.

So I built the app I actually wanted to use.

CleanCook lets you paste any recipe link and get just the ingredients and steps — clean, fast, no noise. AI strips everything else out. There's also a Cooking Mode so your screen stays on and you can follow steps without touching your phone with messy hands.

It's my first real launch. I'm a student building on the side, and this is the first thing I've shipped that I actually use every day.

Would love brutal feedback — what's missing? What would make you use this daily?

Recipe sites drive me nuts too...that frustration is so relatable. I'll check out CleanCook.

If you're up for it, I'm launching The Sponge on PH soon...an AI-powered flashcard app that turns any webpage into study material with spaced repetition. Would appreciate a follow (See "PRODUCT HUNT LAUNCH" Link in my profile).
