Tabled - From Reel to Meal
Inspiration
We and our girlfriends kept seeing great recipes on TikTok but actually getting from a saved video to a grocery list and into the kitchen was always a hassle. So we built an app that does it for you: paste a TikTok link, get the recipe and ingredients, go cook.
What it does
Paste a TikTok link. Get ingredients and steps. Export grocery list to Apple Reminders. Cook with step-by-step timers. Done.
How we built it
SwiftUI + SwiftData on iOS. FastAPI on Vercel serverless. Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite for extraction. RevenueCat for payments.
Challenges we ran into
Fasting while building and testing this app :D
Accomplishments that we're proud of
The whole flow works end to end. Not a demo. A real product. Paste link, get recipe, export grocery list, cook with timers.
What we learned
One flow done right beats ten half-baked features. Build something you actually want to use.
What's next for Tabled
To improve user experience based on user feedback.
