A smart chef for the way
you actually cook.
An ingredient in the fridge. A recipe you want to change. A plan for the week. Start where you are.
Cook with
Love the idea.
Change the ingredient.
Don’t have it? Don’t like it? Talk through a substitution and how it changes the recipe. Keep the conversation going until the plan works for you.
Plan your meals.
Prep for your week.
Talk through meal planning and meal prep: batch cooking, lunches and recipes to make ahead. Tell your chef how much time you have and how many people you’re feeding.
It gets to know your kitchen
Less explaining.
More “that’s so me.”
How many people do you usually cook for? What do you love, dislike or need to avoid? What does a normal day of meals look like?
Your chef uses the preferences you review and save to guide new recipes. Add an optional calorie-planning target, or cook without one.

Good cooking starts
with good know-how.
Original recipes are guided by Chef Handbook—a growing cooking reference built through study of respected culinary sources, including Serious Eats and Epicurious.
Techniques, ingredient behaviour and practical cooking principles help your chef turn an idea into a complete recipe, with ingredients, method and useful doneness cues.

Smart pantry & shopping lists.
