Grocery shopping and meal planning shouldn't be a chore. That's why we built ChefAI - an AI-powered assistant that generates personalized recipes and helps you find the best deals on ingredients.
The Challenge of Meal Planning
We've all been there:
- Staring at the fridge wondering what to make
- Scrolling through endless recipe sites
- Making a shopping list only to forget half the items
- Missing out on deals because we didn't check the right stores
ChefAI solves all of these problems with the power of AI.
How ChefAI Works
1. Tell It What You Want
Describe your meal preferences in natural language:
"I want something healthy with chicken, but I'm out of onions"
ChefAI understands dietary restrictions, ingredient exclusions, cuisine preferences, and cooking skill levels.
2. Get Personalized Recipes
Powered by Google Gemini, ChefAI generates unique recipes tailored to your request. Not just generic suggestions from a database - truly customized recipes that account for:
- Ingredients you have on hand
- Items you want to exclude
- Dietary requirements
- Time constraints
- Skill level
3. Smart Grocery Integration
Here's where it gets really powerful. ChefAI connects to major grocery stores to:
- Find real-time prices for each ingredient
- Highlight sales and deals
- Compare prices across stores
- Support organic and specialty filters
- Enable one-click cart additions
