Problem Statement

In today's fast-paced world, many individuals struggle with the daunting task of meal planning due to busy schedules, limited time, and the challenge of finding recipes that match their available ingredients, dietary preferences, and nutritional needs. Traditional recipe search methods often lack personalization and require extensive manual input, leading to frustration. Moreover, individuals with dietary restrictions face difficulty in sourcing suitable recipes. Kitchen Pal aims to simplify meal planning by leveraging AI technology to understand users' ingredient inventory, preferences, and dietary restrictions, offering personalized recipe suggestions based on available ingredients. This approach makes cooking enjoyable, efficient, and accessible to all users, regardless of their culinary expertise or time constraints.

Possible Solution

Kitchen Pal's solution combines a user-friendly interface with AI algorithms to simplify meal planning. Users input their ingredients, and the app generates personalized recipe suggestions tailored to preferences and dietary needs. It guides users through the process, allowing customization of diet preferences and restrictions. Visual representations of recipes, including food photos, enhance the experience, making cooking more enjoyable and efficient.

Possible Solution

Design thinking is a process of solve problems, by understanding User and design product. The popularity of cooking has been on the rise in recent years. However, there are still many individuals who struggle with cooking or do not have the time to prepare meals. Cook assistant apps can provide assistance to these individuals by providing recipes, ingredient lists, and step-by-step instructions for meal preparation.
The purpose of this research is to identify the needs and behaviors of individuals who would benefit from a cook assistant app and to develop a user-friendly app that meets those needs.
