The AI cooking app for couples
Pick a mood or type what's in your fridge. DateChef's AI writes a recipe for the two of you, splits the steps between you and keeps both phones in sync while you cook.
How it works
Five steps, no recipe hunting — and nobody standing around the kitchen waiting for instructions.
Cook with your partner, a friend or on your own. Cooking together earns the most points: +200 per meal.
Romantic, fun, cozy or gourmet. Add a cuisine, a diet and a theme — or just type what's already in your kitchen.
In seconds you get ingredients, cooking phases, nutrition facts and a chef's tip, built around both of your preferences.
Every phase is split between the two of you. When one of you ticks off a task, the other's screen updates instantly.
Rate your meal, collect your points and share your plate on the feed — as a collab post, if you like.
Made for two
The recipe splits into phases and the tasks are shared between you. When one of you ticks a task off, the other's screen updates instantly.
Each step shows who does what, colour-coded for both of you — so nobody waits around.
Send a “Partner Time!” invite and cook live on two phones. Progress and phases stay in step.
While dinner simmers, AI-written questions help you get to know each other a little better.
Your dislikes and allergies merge with your partner's, and those ingredients never reach the recipe.
Live sync
Features
Small details that make cooking together easier — and a lot more fun.
Type what you have or what you're craving. The AI builds the whole recipe around it.
Tell DateChef how tonight feels and the recipe follows.
Calories, protein, carbs and fat — per serving and for the whole table.
From 80s France to Netflix & Chill, every theme sets a different table.
Mark the ingredients you avoid and your allergies once. When you cook with your partner, both lists merge and those ingredients are dropped from the recipe.
Carnivore, fit, vegan, vegetarian or gluten-free — with local or world cuisines.
PAIRING SUGGESTION
