AI Cooking Buddy
Your kitchen sidekick for the "what can I make" question.

Cooking is mostly the moment you open the fridge and don't know what to make. Soulit's cooking buddies live for that moment. Tell them what's in the fridge, what you're in the mood for, how much time you have, and they'll suggest something — adjusted for your skill level and your ingredients. They don't get bored when you ask "can I substitute X for Y?" for the eighth time tonight.
How it works
Name the ingredients you have, or the dish you're trying to make, or just "I'm hungry and have 30 minutes." The buddy asks follow-ups — vegetarian? spicy? need it to last for lunch tomorrow? — and suggests a recipe. As you cook, the buddy walks through steps, answers panicky mid-cooking questions, and offers substitutions when you realize you're out of butter.
Good for
Weeknight cooking when motivation is low. Using up odd leftovers. Cooking new cuisines you don't know well. Adapting recipes for dietary restrictions. Teaching yourself to cook by working through fundamentals. Meal planning for the week.
Not a recipe database
The buddy doesn't link out to specific recipes — it generates ideas conversationally. For carefully tested recipes (especially baking, where ratios matter), check a trusted source. The buddy is best for everyday cooking and creative substitution. Free to start.
Frequently asked questions
- Can it adapt recipes for allergies/diets?
- Yes. Tell it your restrictions (gluten-free, dairy-free, kosher, vegan, etc.) at the start. The buddy adjusts.
- Is it good for baking?
- Less so than savory cooking — baking depends on tested ratios, and the buddy generates ideas that may need adjustment. For precision baking, use a trusted recipe and ask the buddy for technique help.
- Does it know cuisines I don't (e.g., Ethiopian, Peruvian)?
- Roughly, but quality varies by cuisine. For specialized regional cooking, supplement with a cookbook from that tradition.
- Will it remember what I cooked last week?
- Yes — the buddy can track what you've made and help you avoid repeating yourself, or build on dishes you liked.
