About this Cloud Hub Solution:
Our knowledge engineers have spent years developing a complex food ontology that allows us to understand the relationships between ingredients, recipes, nutrition, allergens, and more. We can automatically identify ingredients that contain common allergens, determine whether a recipe is vegan, vegetarian, or compliant with specific diets, and compute nutritional information using a proprietary algorithm.
Special Diets/Intolerances
Our API analyzes recipes to detect ingredients that contain common allergens, such as wheat, dairy, eggs, soy, nuts, and more. We also determine whether a recipe is vegan, vegetarian, Paleo-friendly, Whole30-compliant, and more.
Nutritional Information
We calculate the nutritional information for recipes automatically using a proprietary algorithm. This information allows you to find individual recipes or create entire meal plans that meet your users' dietary goals.
Search & Organize
Our API makes it easy to add a recipe search to your app or website. Our semantic search is fast, accurate, and intelligent, allowing users to search for specific recipes, such as "gluten-free nut-free dessert without apples." You can also create a recipe manager without requiring users to create numerous tags to find recipes.
Plan Your Meals
Let your users plan their meals for the week using recipes or your own brand of packaged foods. The daily nutritional information is calculated automatically.
Get Your Shopping List
Once users are done meal planning, they can generate a shopping list with just a click.
