GenieChef – "I don't know what to cook" is no longer a valid excuse
Hey Product Hunters 👋
9 months ago I posted a keto recipe app here. Nobody remembers it but that's fine. I barely remember it too. But it taught me what I actually wanted to build — so I did.
GenieChef solves one very specific problem: what the hell to cook tonight. You open the fridge, stare at it for 3 minutes, close it, and order pizza. We've all been there.
Now you just tell the app what's in there and get a real recipe in about a minute. With a photo. In your language. From ingredients you already have. Or don't — just open the app and hit a button.
Two modes:
Quick — one tap, no signup, done
Creative — pick cuisine, diet, time, and let the AI surprise you
No ads. No exotic ingredients. No cooking degree required. Also on Google Play — if you prefer an app over a browser tab.
👉 geniechef.app — free, no signup needed to try
Would love brutal honest feedback 🙏

Love the concept, Aleksandr! Turning fridge mystery into tasty meals in seconds is a game‑changer. The quick mode sounds perfect for those last‑minute dinner dilemmas. If you're up for it, I'm launching on PH soon — would appreciate a follow (See PRODUCT HUNT LAUNCH link in my profile). It's called The Sponge, an AI‑powered flashcard app that turns any web content into study material.
@rianbrob Thank you for the warm words. The concept was born after I had spaghetti for the whole week, so I was resolving my own problem.
I've checked your app, and if you need brutal feedback, put it on https://vibecodinglist.com/ — you will definitely get it.
Your project looks very interesting, but there is a huge risk that AI can "simplify" a question in order to create a flashcard and lose something important. Therefore, it should be positioned not as a primary source of truth but as a secondary one. Or maybe as a tool to check own knowledge.
@deadmedusa Awesome...thanks!
