Challenge
The initial AI recipe generator struggled with inconsistent outputs — recipes had incorrect steps, mismatched substitutions, and unclear cooking times. Users with vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free needs faced errors that affected trust and usability. Additionally, adapting recipes for multiple kitchen appliances like air fryers, ovens, and induction cooktops added another layer of complexity.
Our Solution
Banao built a two-part AI system combining a powerful recipe generator and a safety-focused AI validator. The generator creates personalized recipes based on dietary rules, available tools, and preferences, while the validator checks every recipe for logical steps, time and temperature accuracy, allergen control, and appliance compatibility. The architecture leverages GPT-4o, Guardrails, RAG, Groq, and ChromaDB to ensure precision, personalization, and safety — delivering fully validated recipes within 30 seconds.
Features Implemented:
- AI-driven recipe generation and personalization
- Guardrail-powered validation for accuracy and safety
- Dietary and allergen compliance for vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free meals
- Appliance-aware adaptation for ovens, air fryers, and induction stoves
