AI Solution Development
CookinGenie operates a marketplace where personal chefs offer curated menus and in-home dining experiences. However, onboarding new chefs onto the platform was a time-intensive and manual process, hindering CookinGenie’s rapid growth.
Creating menus involved multiple steps: writing dish descriptions, setting up pricing, uploading images, formatting content to meet brand standards, and so on.
Many chefs were unfamiliar with digital tools or marketing best practices and required extensive support to complete their listings. This caused a seven-day onboarding cycle, delaying go-live timelines and limiting the platform’s ability to scale quickly.
The operations team had to step in frequently to assist with copywriting and pricing corrections. The extra work strained internal bandwidth, and the customer experience suffered due to inconsistent menu quality and presentation.
Also, the lack of standardized workflows made maintaining consistency across chef profiles difficult. Variations in writing style, pricing structures, and image quality undermined the platform’s credibility and diluted its premium brand perception.
CookinGenie needed a solution that could empower chefs to publish brand-consistent, high-quality menus independently to reduce operational load and accelerate onboarding at scale.
Taazaa helped CookinGenie integrate an AI menu creation system into their Chef Portal.
Taazaa developed a solution that automates the most time-consuming parts of the process. With just a few inputs, chefs can generate complete menus that include dish names, detailed descriptions, course types, and ingredient lists.
The system also calculates pricing based on ingredient costs, prep time, and serving size. This saved chefs from manually wading through tedious pricing structures.
The platform uses AI to elevate menu presentation, as well. It generates high-quality thumbnails and banner images for every menu item. Chefs can preview and choose from up to five image options, giving them control while maintaining visual quality across the board.
Taazaa reduced the entire experience to three clear steps:
1. Select
2. Generate
3. Edit & Publish
Chefs can either use AI-suggested meals or add their own, make quick edits, and submit the menu for admin review, all within a few minutes.
With AI-generated content following brand guidelines, every chef’s menu looks professional.
Now, the support team is free from constant back-and-forth requests.
The AI Chef Portal delivered clear operational and business value for CookinGenie. Most significantly, it reduced chef onboarding time from seven days to just one, allowing new chefs to go live and start taking bookings almost immediately.
The platform minimized support needs by automating menu creation and streamlining the publishing process. Chefs can now complete onboarding with minimal guidance, which has increased activation rates and improved overall platform engagement.
Standardized formatting, professional visuals, and consistent pricing structures elevated the quality of listings across the board, strengthening CookinGenie’s brand and delivering a more seamless customer experience.
Taazaa’s solution became a key enabler in CookinGenie’s ability to scale operations efficiently while maintaining brand consistency and user trust.
