1. What MealGenio is
MealGenio is a 100% free recipe website. It offers recipes created with the help of artificial intelligence, the Chef feature, a meal planner, shopping lists and wellness sections such as “Lose Weight” and “Gym Mode”. We charge no payments, subscriptions or fees. The service is supported by affiliate links and will show ads (see sections 4 and 5).
2. Free account and minimum age
You can use recipes, Explore and Categories without signing up; Personal Chef, Search by ingredients, Weekly planner and list, Gym Mode, Weight Loss, Favorites and history require a free account. The account is created for free with just your email address and a password and, if you choose, also lets you receive the new recipes by email every week. You must be at least 18 years old or the age of majority in your country. You are responsible for keeping your password secret and for the activity on your account. You can delete your account at any time by emailing us.
3. AI-generated content and health notice
Recipes, nutrition values, plans and Chef answers are generated or reviewed with the help of artificial intelligence and may contain errors. They are for guidance only and do not replace the advice of a doctor, dietitian or other health professional. Always check ingredients if you have allergies, intolerances or a medical condition, and follow safe food handling and cooking practices.
4. Ads
MealGenio will show third-party ads, such as Google AdSense. Ads will be labelled as such. We do not control the content of the ads or the products or services they promote. You can choose non-personalized ads in the cookie preferences.
5. Affiliate links and products
Some links lead to external stores (for example, Amazon) and are affiliate links: if you buy through them, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. As an Amazon Associate, MealGenio earns from qualifying purchases.
MealGenio does not sell products. Purchases are made directly with the relevant store, which is solely responsible for prices, availability, shipping, warranties and returns. Product information may change without notice. Recommendations are guidance only: MealGenio is not responsible for the recommended products or their use.
