Terms of Service
Effective September 9, 2026
Agent Chef is a web service at agentchef.net operated by User Kind, a company incorporated in Colorado, USA ("we", "us"). It helps a household plan weekly dinners: an AI agent you bring proposes recipes, household members vote and comment, and the service keeps track of the results, shopping lists, and preferences. By creating a household or using a vote link you agree to these terms.
1. Your account and household
One person (the "owner") creates a household with their email address and is responsible for it: for the members they add, for the contact details they enter for those members, and for the API keys they create. Keep your keys private; anyone holding a key can act on your household through the service. You can revoke a key at any time in Settings.
Household members use personal vote links. They don't need an account. The owner is responsible for having each member's permission before adding their name, phone number, or email.
2. Bring your own agent
Agent Chef does not include an AI agent. You connect your own (for example Claude or ChatGPT) using an API key. Anything that agent does is done on your behalf and at your direction: writing recipes, sending messages to your household, and, if you allow it, filling an online grocery cart. Agent Chef never places orders or moves money. Purchases are made by you or your agent with the retailer of your choice, under that retailer's terms. We are not responsible for what your agent buys, says, or gets wrong, and we recommend reviewing any cart before checkout.
3. Your content
Recipes, comments, ratings, preferences, and pantry lists that you or your agent add to a household ("your content") stay private to that household unless you choose to share them. You give us the permission we need to store, process, and display your content to your household and to your connected agent so the service works.
Recipes your agent writes. Much of the content in Agent Chef is produced by the AI agent you connect, at your direction. You are responsible for what your agent creates and imports into your household, as if you had entered it yourself.
Recipes imported from other websites. When you or your agent import a recipe from a URL, we store the ingredient list, brief method steps, and a link to the source. We do not claim ownership of any of it. If you share such a recipe outside your household, only the ingredients and the source link are shown to others, and any photo taken from the source site is replaced with an image we generate. Please respect the rights of the sites you import from and do not import from sites whose terms prohibit it.
Sharing to Community recipes. Sharing is always your explicit choice, per recipe. When you publish a recipe, you grant User Kind a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, reproduce, adapt (for example to resize photos or reformat text), display, and distribute that recipe on agentchef.net and to other Agent Chef households, including letting them copy it into their own household, and you confirm that you have the right to grant that license. Other households may edit their copies. You can make a recipe private again at any time; copies other households already made are theirs to keep. Cooked, favorite, and rating counts shown next to a shared recipe are aggregates and never identify a household.
Generated photos. We may generate photographs of dishes using an AI image model, from the text of a recipe. Such photos are marked as generated in our records and are provided as-is; they are illustrations, not a depiction of a specific real dish.
Takedowns. If you believe content on agentchef.net infringes your rights, email support@agentchef.net with the page address, a description of the work you own, and your contact details. We remove or disable access to infringing content promptly and may terminate households that repeatedly infringe.
Don't use the service to store anything unlawful or to harass anyone; we may suspend households that do.
4. Fees and trial
Each household gets a free trial. After that, the service is offered as a paid subscription billed by Stripe. Prices are shown in Settings before you subscribe. See our cancellation and refund policy. We may change prices with at least 30 days' notice by email; changes never apply to a period you've already paid for.
5. Availability and changes
Agent Chef is in early access. We work hard to keep it running, but it is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind. We may add, change, or remove features, and we'll tell you about significant changes by email or in the app. If we ever shut the service down we'll give at least 30 days' notice and a way to export your data.
6. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability to you for any claim related to the service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. We're not liable for indirect or consequential losses, for purchases made by your agent, for recipe outcomes, for allergies or dietary needs that weren't reflected in your preferences, for the accuracy of any recipe (including recipes written by AI agents or shared by other households, which we do not review), or for content that another household shared. Nothing here limits liability that can't be limited by law.
7. Ending things
You can stop using Agent Chef at any time; cancel your subscription in Settings and delete your household by emailing us. We may suspend or end access for a breach of these terms, and we'll tell you why unless the law prevents it.
8. The boring but necessary
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, USA, and disputes will be handled in the state or federal courts located in Colorado, unless your local consumer law says otherwise. If we update these terms we'll change the effective date above and, for material changes, email household owners. Questions: support@agentchef.net.
