Hey Product Hunt!
I’m Dalton, and I’m beyond excited to share Cheffie with you all. This project was inspired by a recent journey that’s changed my life.
Back in 2020, I hit rock bottom. I was dealing with weight issues, chronic fatigue, and the crushing pressure of trying to figure out how to eat better without losing my mind. The day I realized I couldn’t fit into my own pajamas anymore was a wake-up call I’ll never forget. While confidence was an issue, I knew I needed to overhaul my entire approach to food and health. Fast forward nearly five years, and I’m proud to say I’ve lost 60 pounds and have kept it off ever since. The journey wasn’t easy, but it taught me that enjoying food and being healthy don’t have to be mutually exclusive.
That’s where Cheffie comes in. I built Cheffie to make healthy eating accessible, enjoyable, and most importantly—personalized. Whether you’re dealing with severe food allergies, trying to manage nutritional deficiencies, or just looking to eat better without feeling restricted, Cheffie’s got your back.
Cheffie is like having a personal chef who understands exactly what your body needs. It crafts recipes that align with your dietary preferences, health goals, and even the cravings you might feel guilty about. And we didn’t stop there—Cheffie comes with an integrated grocery list, detailed nutrition facts, and the ability to save your favorite recipes so you can always find that dish you loved.
I’m offering Cheffie completely free right now because I want to ensure that it's genuinely helpful to people. I'm pushing updates daily so every user can feel a "wow" and sigh of relief. Your feedback would mean the world to me as I continue to improve the platform.

@owenfar Hey Owen! Thank you so much for the kind words and your thoughtful feedback! I love your suggestions for allowing community-uploaded images and a comments section. We will also be adding user ratings for each recipe and restaurant dishes very soon!
And yes, I have a love/hate relationship with the AI images — they have been great for increasing engagement, but maintaining authenticity is still important. The goal is for the recipes to spark excitement and curiosity but also feel approachable and not overly gourmet 😂
Congrats to the Cheffie team on the launch! This sounds like a game-changer for personalized eating and health goals. How does Cheffie handle more complex dietary restrictions or combinations of allergies?
@vietpham Hi Jonathan! Thanks for the love :) Cheffie is designed for this exact purpose -- it really shines with complicated allergies, highly-nuanced restrictions, and combinations of several diets. It is able to support high-level diet combinations and even fine-tuned macro specifications. The custom recipes currently take all of these into account, and the restaurant menu analyzer will also incorporate each preference into its advice for the user. Cheers!

As someone who really love cooking and food, I want to try this product soon! Congrats on your launch Dalton and team
Hi Dalton, such a moving story, glad to see that you bounced back even stronger ! Cheffie seems promising, can't wait to discover new adapted recipes with it 😉
Congrats on the launch, @dltn! I love that the product includes nutrition facts for each dish—that’s a great feature. I’m just starting to learn cooking, so I’m definitely going to give it a try. Great job!

Wow, Dalton! Cheffie sounds like a game changer. Personalized recipes with a grocery list? That's some serious MVP stuff right there! Excited to see how this could help so many people. Upvoted!
Hey Dalton,
I'm curious about the restaurant menu analysis feature. How extensive is the database of restaurants, and how often is it updated?
Congrats on the launch!
@kyrylosilin This is a great question! Cheffie sources data from restaurants based on whatever public information is available (which includes photos, online menus, and reviews), so the recency of data will depend on what is available. Right now, the goal is to do a global refresh once every few weeks and enable real-time retrieval for restaurants that support it. The Photo upload feature is coming within the next couple of weeks where users eating at the restaurant can take a picture of the menu and have it analyzed immediately.
