Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know
How is Chefs AI different from ChatGPT for recipes?
While generic AI like ChatGPT can generate recipes, they sometimes "hallucinate"—creating strange combinations or incorrect measurements. Chefs AI is built differently. It understands ingredients, flavor chemistry, and cooking techniques to ensure every recipe is practical and delicious. This allows us to tailor results to your specific flavor profile and preferences.
Can I use Chefs AI with dietary restrictions?
Absolutely! You can specify preferences like vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, kosher, halal, and more. Note: We focus on taste preferences, not medical diets. Always consult healthcare professionals for medical dietary needs.
Does it work offline?
Yes! Once you view a recipe, it’s automatically cached on your device. So if you’re in the middle of cooking and lose your connection, the recipe stays right where you need it.
Do I need to input every ingredient in my pantry?
Not at all! You can add as few or as many ingredients as you want. Our AI can work with "I have chicken and rice" or a full pantry inventory—whatever works for you. For best results, add your main ingredients and we'll suggest the rest.
What if I'm missing an ingredient from a recipe?
Our smart substitution engine suggests alternatives based on flavor profile, texture, and cooking properties. Missing heavy cream? We'll suggest coconut milk or cashew cream with detailed notes on how it'll affect the dish.
Is my data private?
Yes. Your pantry, preferences, and recipes stay private. We never sell your data. We're GDPR and CCPA compliant. Your data powers your experience, not our ad revenue.
What's the difference between the three tiers?
Occasional Chef gives you 10 recipes/month with basic features—perfect for trying us out.
Home Chef includes 50 recipes/month, voice input, and custom recipe creation—ideal for regular home cooking.
Master Chef offers 150 recipes/month, local LLM support (use your own Ollama instance), and unlimited experience—for serious cooking enthusiasts and those who want maximum control.
What is Local LLM support in Master Chef?
Master Chef subscribers can connect their own Ollama instance for complete privacy and control. This means your recipes are generated on your own hardware—perfect for those who want maximum data privacy or have specific AI model preferences. You'll need to set up Ollama separately, and we provide documentation to help.
