You asked, we answer! From TikTok comments to emails, our team answers the questions we get most about the AI assistant for family meals, Ollie.
How does Ollie create the recipes for its meal plans?
Then, Ollie generates step-by-step cooking instructions by breaking down the recipe into sequential steps. Learn more here.
Will I be able to save my favorite recipes?
Yes! We all have our favorites, and we think it’s super valuable to easily get back to them. We want you to enjoy your food!
Along with that, Ollie learns from your saved meals to learn more about you and your preferences. This makes it easy for Ollie to find the best meals for you!
How can I share my favorite recipes?
You can share your family’s go-to meals with Ollie by either writing a short description, taking a photo of a recipe (online, or from a binder or cookbook), or by uploading a screenshot of a recipe. Ollie will generate a full recipe with an ingredients list and cooking instructions and recommend them in your meal plan when you want something familiar.
Will I be able to order groceries with Ollie?
Our vision for Ollie is to be your AI assistant, and that means doing the grocery shopping for you and scheduling a pickup or delivery if you want it. We have an initial beta experience available right now that allows you to order groceries through Amazon Fresh. We would love for you to try it and provide feedback so we can rapidly improve it and launch more grocers!
Will Ollie know my dietary needs and preferences?
Ollie is designed to understand your dietary needs and preferences. During the onboarding process, you can share your dietary restrictions, like lactose intolerance, allergies, and other requirements or preferences. Ollie uses this information to tailor meal recommendations for you, ensuring that every suggested recipe fits your dietary needs.
Ollie is not only designed to understand your dietary preferences from the get-go, but it also allows you to update these preferences and requirements as time goes on. Whether you discover a new food allergy, decide to try a new diet, or simply want to change things up, Ollie makes it easy to adjust your profile so that your meal recommendations align with your current dietary needs.
In addition to allowing you to update your dietary preferences and requirements, we’re also working on enhancing Ollie’s capabilities to learn and ask about your preferences over time. This means that Ollie will become even more personalized and intuitive, ensuring that the meal recommendations are in tune with your changing tastes and needs. As you continue to use Ollie, it will get better at understanding and catering to your unique preferences!
Is Ollie an app?
Yes, we want Ollie to be available wherever you are. Ollie is available as a free app in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. We plan to continue to introduce new ways for you to connect with Ollie in the future.
How much does Ollie cost?
Ollie is free. Our goal is that most of Ollie remains free and some future features will help us build a sustainable business that is aligned with our users. We really don’t like ads because we want you to know that Ollie works for you and only you.
