    I am more concerned about the cost step up from Gemini 2.5 Flash to 3.5 Flash, with the latter being roughly 3x more expensive. I thought the intention of the Flash models was to b…

    Let me know what you think or if there are areas that can be improved!

    I get the skepticism as I shared similar thoughts on what recipe quality would be like. I'm also quite sensitive to AI slop. My wife, who really is an outstanding cook, was even mo…

    I'm sorry you hit that as it should definitely respect instructions around things like protein sources and ingredient selection. I'll take a look at that.

    Not at all a nitpick, it is one of the things that is painful in the app IMO. I think the length of time for some of the operations is one of the bigger reasons for people to bounc…

    You're right that Meals You Love integrates with Instacart and Kroger for ordering meal plan groceries but it's not primarily a grocery funnel and this has no impact on meal plan c…

    Ah, I hear you on the onboarding wizard. I did my best to keep it streamlined but understand it's still overwhelming. Hard to balance keeping it light with collecting enough data t…

    It's actually a pretty decent API. I've hit some quirks with it, but for the most part works reasonably well overall. The best part about it was there were no hoops to jump through…

    I worked (briefly) at Apcera as well and on the NATS team as a core contributor on the project. I sympathize because it is really difficult to build a viable business around OSS. B…
