Question 1

Why not just save posts on Facebook or Pinterest?

Accepted Answer

Saved posts stay in the app you found them in, mixed with everything else, and you can't search or shop from them. Linkplate pulls every recipe into one cookbook and turns them into a grocery list.

Question 2

Does it work with Facebook posts and Pinterest pins?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Paste the link from either one. If a post won't open, paste the caption text instead.

Question 3

Do I need to download anything?

Accepted Answer

No. It works in your phone's browser, and you can add it to your home screen in two taps.

Question 4

What can I save to Linkplate?

Accepted Answer

Recipes from almost anywhere on the internet: YouTube and TikTok videos, Instagram posts, food blogs, and recipe sites. You can also snap a photo of a printed or handwritten recipe, or type one in yourself — everything lands in the same cookbook.

Question 5

Does it remove ads and long intros?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Paste a link and Linkplate pulls out just the recipe — the title, ingredients, steps, and the source it came from. No pop-ups, no life story, no scrolling past forty photos of someone’s lunch.

Question 6

Does Linkplate show calories and macros?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every saved recipe keeps its nutrition per serving — calories, protein, carbs and fat — right alongside the ingredients, so you can see what you're cooking before you start. What it doesn't do is log everything you eat all day: it's a cookbook, not a food diary.

Question 7

Can I keep high-protein, vegetarian or gluten-free recipes separate?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Save recipes into albums you name yourself — High-protein, Vegetarian, 15-minute dinners, Sunday batch. Search by name or by ingredient and keep each kind of cooking in its own place, so the recipe you meant is one album away instead of buried in a feed.

Question 8

Is Linkplate a replacement for MyFitnessPal?

Accepted Answer

No, and it isn't trying to be. Linkplate is where the food comes from: you save the recipe, it keeps the calories and macros, and it builds the grocery list. Keep your tracker for the whole day and use Linkplate for the deciding-what-to-cook part.

Question 9

Is there a mobile app?

Accepted Answer

Linkplate is a web app, which means it runs on any phone or computer you already have. On your phone, open it once and use Add to Home Screen — it gets its own icon and opens full screen, exactly like a downloaded app. No app store, no download, and nothing to install or update. Your cookbook is the same on every device.

Question 10

Can I take my recipes with me?

Accepted Answer

Yes — they're yours. Every saved recipe stays editable, and you can delete any recipe or your whole account whenever you want. What isn't built yet is a one-click export of your whole cookbook into a file; that's on the list, and Founder Pass holders hear first when it ships.

Question 11

What is the Founder Pass?

Accepted Answer

A single $49 payment for lifetime access. You start with the 7-day free trial, pay once on day 8, and there are no renewals, ever — plus early access to new features and a direct line to the people building Linkplate. It’s limited to the first 250 members.

Question 12

Is there a free trial?

Accepted Answer

Yes — both subscription plans (Monthly and Yearly) start with a 7-day free trial. You add your card at checkout, but nothing is charged until day 8. We’ll send you a reminder on day 5, and you can cancel anytime before then and pay nothing. The Founder Pass works the same way: free for 7 days, then a single $49 payment on day 8 — and no renewals after that.

Question 13

What does Linkplate cost without the Founder Pass?

Accepted Answer

$9.99/month or $34.99/year, cancel anytime. The Founder Pass is the one-payment alternative: $49 once after your trial and it’s yours for life.

Question 14

What is the 30-Day Cook-It Guarantee?

Accepted Answer

The 30-Day Cook-It Guarantee — full refund, no questions asked. It covers the Founder Pass and both subscription plans for 30 days from your first charge: if Linkplate isn’t working for you, email us and we refund you in full. Full details are on the refund policy page.

Seven days free. Then $49, once.
