FAQ

How the pairing check behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI suggest a new wine if the first one clashes?

    Yes, the AI can suggest adjustments to the wine choice to resolve the identified risk.

  • 02

    Does the AI change my recipe?

    No. The AI only identifies risks and suggests changes. You retain full control over your ingredients and cooking process.

  • 03

    Can the AI order the wine for me?

    No. The AI only analyzes pairing risks; it has no capability to interact with shopping carts or delivery services.

  • 04

    Will the AI tell me if a wine is expensive?

    No. The tool focuses on flavor profiles, fat content, and intensity, not market pricing or vintage value.

  • 05

    How accurate are these risk checks?

    The AI uses chemical profiles of fat and acidity to predict clashes, but you should always trust your own palate for the final call.
