Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about Chef AI
What is Chef AI?
Chef AI is your friendly neighborhood AI chef that turns your random fridge ingredients into actual meals (no more "I have eggs and ketchup, now what?" moments). Just snap a photo or describe what you've got, and we'll work our magic. Think of us as your sous chef who never judges your questionable ingredient combinations.
How does the AI recipe generation work?
Our AI has been trained on millions of recipes and knows that tomatoes and basil are friends, but pineapple on pizza is... controversial. It analyzes your ingredients, considers your dietary needs (we won't judge if you're keto), checks cooking time (because who has 4 hours on a Tuesday?), and creates recipes that actually make sense. It's like having Gordon Ramsay in your pocket, but nicer.
Is Chef AI free to use?
Yes! We offer a free tier because we believe everyone deserves good food, regardless of their bank account. Free users get basic recipe generation. Premium users get unlimited recipes, priority support (we answer faster when you pay us), and exclusive recipes that are so good they're basically food porn.
Can I use Chef AI offline?
Our AI needs internet to think (it's not psychic, unfortunately). But once you've generated recipes, you can view them offline. So if you're cooking in a bunker or on a remote island, make sure to save your favorites before you lose Wi-Fi. Pro tip: download recipes before your camping trip.
How accurate are the recipes?
Our recipes are pretty solid - we've tested them (and yes, our team has gained a few pounds in the process). But remember: we're AI, not your grandmother. Use your judgment, taste as you go, and maybe don't trust us blindly if we suggest putting chocolate in your pasta. Always follow food safety guidelines because food poisoning isn't fun.
Does Chef AI accommodate dietary restrictions?
Absolutely! We're inclusive like that. Whether you're vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, keto, or following some diet we've never heard of, we've got you covered. Just set your preferences in settings, and we'll make sure our recipes respect your choices. No judgment here - we're just here to help you eat well.
Can I save my favorite recipes?
Of course! Hit that heart button and save recipes to your favorites. Create collections like "Things I Actually Cooked" or "Recipes That Impressed My Date." Access them anytime from your profile. It's like Pinterest, but for recipes you'll actually make.
How do I cancel my subscription?
We're sad to see you go, but we get it - sometimes budgets are tighter than your jeans after Thanksgiving. You can cancel anytime through your account settings or by emailing support. Your subscription stays active until the end of your billing period (we're not monsters, we won't cut you off mid-recipe).
Is my data secure?
Yes! We encrypt everything because we take security seriously. Your recipes, preferences, and that embarrassing photo of your failed attempt at making bread are all safe with us. We don't sell your data to anyone (we're not that kind of app). Check our Privacy Policy for the full legal mumbo jumbo.
What devices are supported?
We work on iOS 13+ and Android 8.0+. Basically, if your phone isn't from the stone age, you're good. If you're still rocking an iPhone 6, maybe it's time for an upgrade? We promise the new phones can also make calls.
Still have questions?
Still confused? Got a question we didn't cover? Our support team is here to help (and they're real humans, we promise).
