Treat every result as an estimate
Short videos skip steps, hide measurements, speed up cooking, and cut around mistakes. CookTheClip may infer quantities, timings, temperatures, nutrition, equipment, and ingredient substitutions incorrectly.
Safety first
Cook from the recipe, but verify like a grown-up.
CookTheClip is designed to make cooking clips easier to use. It is not designed to certify that a recipe is safe, complete, healthy, allergen-free, or suitable for your situation.
Important warning
If a recipe involves high-risk ingredients, uncertain cooking times, allergens, deep frying, pressure cooking, or vulnerable eaters, pause and verify with trusted guidance before cooking.
Verify temperatures and doneness
Use a food thermometer for meat, poultry, fish, eggs, reheated food, and leftovers. Do not rely on color, texture, or a video cut to decide whether high-risk food is safe.
Check allergens yourself
AI may miss hidden allergens, cross-contact, sauces, spice blends, garnishes, or branded ingredients. Always read labels and ask guests about allergies before serving.
Respect appliances and equipment
Follow manufacturer instructions for ovens, air fryers, pressure cookers, deep fryers, knives, blenders, grills, and open flames. Do not copy risky creator techniques from a clip.
Use extra care for vulnerable people
Pregnant people, young children, older adults, and immunocompromised people may need stricter food-safety choices. Seek qualified advice for medical, dietary, or nutrition needs.
Nutrition is approximate
Calories, macros, serving sizes, and dietary labels are rough estimates. They are not suitable for medical diets, eating-disorder recovery plans, allergy management, or regulated nutrition claims.
Be especially careful with
- raw or undercooked chicken, meat, fish, shellfish, and eggs
- unpasteurised dairy, soft cheeses, and raw sprouts
- leftovers, rice, sauces, stocks, and meal-prep containers
- deep-fried food, pressure-cooked food, and high-temperature sugar
- foraged ingredients, wild mushrooms, and unknown plants
- baby food, pregnancy meals, and clinical or medical diets
Before you cook
Compare the estimate with a trusted recipe, confirm ingredient amounts, check appliance guidance, and keep the AI warning attached when you copy or share a recipe.
