Databases and backend frameworks

Other recipe APIs are pricey and inconsistent. Some recipes have no image or a bad one, some are missing a description or have gaps in the data. Foodashi gives you complete, consistent data for every recipe: a real photo, a description, ingredients, nutrition, EU-14 allergen flags, dietary tags, a taste profile, and a NutriMetric A to F score. Nutrition is computed from 11 official databases, and any value not found there is clearly flagged as estimated. Affordable, white-label, free tier.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm the founder of Foodashi. I built it because the other recipe APIs I tried had two problems: they were expensive, and the data was inconsistent. Some recipes had no image, some had a bad one, some were missing the description or had gaps in the fields. You never really knew what you'd get back. So I built Foodashi around one rule: every recipe gets the same complete, consistent data. A real photo, a description, ingredients, nutrition, EU allergen flags, dietary tags, a taste profile, and a quality score. No blanks, no surprises. On nutrition I want to be straight with you: it's computed from 11 official food databases wherever possible, and when an ingredient isn't in any of them, the value is estimated and clearly flagged at lower confidence rather than passed off as exact. It's for anyone building food, nutrition, or health apps and sites, and it's priced to actually be affordable. There's a free tier to start on. I'd love your feedback: what recipe or nutrition data have you struggled to get consistently? Happy to answer anything.

Every recipe & nutrition API I tried was too expensive or too messy. So I'm fixing it.

Hey all building in public here.

I kept hitting the same wall: I wanted recipe and nutrition data for a project, and every API was either priced for funded companies or gave me inconsistent, half-complete data. Some recipes had no image, some had a bad one, some were missing descriptions or whole fields. I'd pay for it and then burn a weekend cleaning it up.

So I started building Foodashi: a recipe and nutrition API where every recipe is complete and consistent. You send a dish name and get back real ingredients, nutrition computed from 11 official food databases, EU-14 allergen flags, dietary tags, a taste profile, a quality score, and a photo. If a recipe doesn't pass every check, it gets discarded instead of shipped. And where a nutrition value is estimated rather than measured, I flag it instead of pretending it's exact.

What I keep noticing: everyone is building food, health, and recipe apps right now, mostly with AI assistants, and they all hit the same data wall I did. So I'm building the affordable, consistent option for exactly that wave.
