Is My Royal Chef free?

Yes — guests get 1 free chef answer (then the free on-device engine keeps helping), and a free account gets 15 chef chat messages every day. Premium ($12.99/month) raises the limit to 90 messages a day. A paid cookbook is also available.

How does the chef chat work?

Your question goes to a culinary LLM running on our server (via OpenRouter), which answers with clean markdown: tables, steps, and timings. If the server is unreachable, an on-device engine in your browser or app answers instead.

Do you store my chat history or ingredients?

Messages are processed server-side to generate answers. Guest chats stay on your device; signed-in users can sync history and saved recipes across devices. We never sell your data.

What is the Android app?

A native Android app (not a web wrapper) with the same chef chat, 342+ recipes, substitutions, and flavor pairing. It picks up new recipes from the site automatically — no app update needed.

Yes. Sign in (free) to save recipes and history, and download any recipe as a PDF. A printable cookbook with tested recipes is also available for purchase.

How it works

A real chef brain, with a local safety net.

1 Tell it what you have

Ingredients, a photo of your fridge, a time budget, or a craving. Speak it with the mic or type — one image per message is welcome.

2 The chef answers with structure

A server-side culinary LLM replies in clean markdown: exact ingredient tables, numbered steps, timing guides — with live web search when freshness matters.

3 Cook anywhere, even offline

If the server is unreachable, the on-device engine in your browser or app takes over instantly. 15 free chef messages every day; Premium raises it to 90.

FAQ

Is it free?

Yes — guests get 1 free chef answer (the on-device engine keeps helping after it), a free account gets 15 chef messages every day, and all kitchen tools stay free. Premium ($12.99/month) raises the chat limit to 90 messages a day for daily cooks. Sign-up is optional and only stores your history and saved recipes.

Who answers my questions?

A culinary LLM running on our server (through OpenRouter) answers with clean, structured markdown — tables, steps, timings. When the question needs fresh facts (prices, seasonality, recalls), the server searches the web and cites sources. If the server is unreachable, an on-device engine in your browser or app answers instead.

Can I send a photo or speak instead of typing?

Yes. Attach one image per message (a fridge shelf, an ingredient label) and the chef will understand it. The mic button turns your speech into text right in the input box, on web and Android.

Is there an Android app?

Yes. My Royal Chef has a native Android app (not a web wrapper) with the same chef chat, 342+ recipes, substitutions, and flavor pairing. It syncs with your account and picks up new recipes automatically. Download the APK.
