AI in the Kitchen

🏆 Award-winning concept — designed, built, and pitched in 24 hours.

Goal

An award-winning AI kitchen companion, designed and pitched in 24 hours.

Insight

Recipe books work backwards: they dictate shopping lists, while real kitchens start from whatever is already in the fridge — and their walls of text lose cooks mid-recipe with messy hands.

Approach

"Cook with what you have" flips the model — AI builds recipes from available ingredients instead of demanding new ones. Voice interaction removes scrolling with dirty hands, and step-aware visual guidance replaces static text so cooks never lose their place.

Outcome

Concept to winning pitch in a 24-hour window, under the theme "Life Long Learning."
