Then you can ask your AI assistant about your recipes. If you like, it can also save new recipes straight to Ricotta. It takes about two minutes and is easiest in a browser on a computer.

You will paste this address into Claude or ChatGPT. In the app you also find it under Settings › “ChatGPT and Claude”.

Try it

Ask, for example: “Which recipes with lentils do I have?” or “Save this recipe to Ricotta” with a link. In ChatGPT, type “@Ricotta” in the chat.

End the connection

At connect.getricotta.app you see every connection and can revoke each one. The assistant then has no access any more.
