How it works
Three steps, then dinner
Saving a recipe takes about as long as sending it to a friend.

01
Send it to Bento
Share a post from Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook, paste a link, or snap a photo of the page.

02
Bento sorts it out
Ingredients, steps, times, and servings come back as a proper recipe. Everything remains easily editable.

03
Cook it this week
Drop it on a day, send its ingredients to the grocery list, and shop by aisle.
