Sproutly is an AI-assisted kitchen management platform that provides features including, but not limited to: recipe discovery, meal planning, ingredient inventory tracking, recipe scaling, shopping list generation, dietary transformations, barcode scanning, and voice-guided cooking assistance.

5. AI-Generated Content & Accuracy Disclaimer

The Service uses artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to provide many of its features, including recipe suggestions, nutritional information, ingredient recognition, dietary transformations, and cooking guidance. You acknowledge and agree that:

• AI-generated content is provided for informational and entertainment purposes only and should not be treated as professional medical, nutritional, or dietary advice.
• AI systems may produce inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated information, including but not limited to: nutritional values, calorie counts, allergen identification, ingredient substitutions, and dietary classifications.
• Recipe scaling calculations, while based on scientific principles, are approximations and may not account for all variables in your specific cooking environment, equipment, or ingredient brands.
• Dietary transformations (e.g., vegan, keto, gluten-free, halal) are generated by AI and may not fully meet the requirements of specific dietary restrictions, medical conditions, or religious observances.
• Ingredient recognition via camera or barcode scanning is not guaranteed to be 100% accurate. You should always verify identified ingredients, especially if you have food allergies or intolerances.
• You are solely responsible for verifying the accuracy of any nutritional information, allergen data, or dietary classification before consuming food prepared using the Service.
