Introduction
FoodAPI is a deterministic food intelligence platform — not a kitchen app.
What you get
Reusable food reasoning for products and agents: ingredient normalization, recipe intelligence, pantry feasibility, dietary evaluation, meal planning, and shopping requirements.
The same capabilities are available via REST, official SDKs, and MCP for AI hosts.
How to integrate
- Quickstart — first meaningful API call in minutes
- How FoodAPI works — domain mental model
- Guides — build around developer jobs
- MCP — agent tools with OAuth and shared usage quotas
Design principles
- Deterministic: same inputs produce the same outputs
- Explainable: recommendations expose reasoning, not opaque scores
- Composable: core intelligence stays reusable across many food products
