Lifestyle Amigo – Cooking

Turn the daily question “What should I eat?” into simple, delicious meals

Meet Antonio, your Cooking Amigo

Hey there — I’m Antonio, your Cooking Amigo.

I can make everyday cooking easier, more enjoyable and a little more inspiring. Whether you are new to cooking or already feel comfortable in the kitchen, I can help you decide what to make and guide you through the process.

Tell me what you are hungry for, how much time you have, which ingredients are available or what kind of meal you feel like eating. Together, we can turn that into something practical, delicious and worth looking forward to.

You can ask for recipe ideas, help with ingredients, step-by-step guidance, cooking techniques, flavour combinations or ways to improve a sauce, seasoning or texture.

Start Creating Your Personal Amigo

Create your Personal Amigo

An AI companion created around you

A Personal Amigo is an AI companion created for one person: you.

It is shaped around the personality, interests, preferences, goals and everyday context you choose to share. Your Amigo can support you with planning, reflection, learning, organisation, personal development and everyday decisions.

You decide what kind of support you want and how your Amigo communicates with you. Its role, tone and communication style are prepared around your preferences.

A Personal Amigo is not a human being and does not replace your relationships, professional support or your own judgement. It is a personal AI system designed to provide useful and relevant support within clear boundaries.

How it works

1. Tell us what you are looking for

Fill in the form below and tell us a little about yourself, what you would like help with and what you hope your Amigo can do for you.

You do not need to have everything figured out. A few clear answers are enough to begin.

2. We review your request

We review your request within 24–48 hours. If your request is accepted, we send you a payment link for the one-time setup fee of €149.

Submitting the form is the first step. Payment takes place only after your request has been accepted.

3. Have an onboarding conversation with Thomas

After payment, we arrange a text-based onboarding conversation with Thomas, your onboarding guide.

The conversation takes approximately one hour. You do not need any prior knowledge of AI. Together, you discuss what you want your Amigo to help with, how you prefer to communicate and which personal context is relevant.

4. Your Amigo is prepared

After the onboarding conversation, we configure your Personal Amigo around the relevant information and preferences you have chosen to share.

We define its role, personality, tone and communication style. We also create a visual identity for your Amigo, including a dedicated photo session and delivery of the resulting images in digital format.

Your Personal Amigo is usually ready within another 24–48 hours. We will let you know as soon as it is ready to use.

What can your Personal Amigo help with?

Your Amigo can support you with:

personal goals and priorities;
planning, organisation and routines;
learning and exploring new topics;
reflecting on challenges and possibilities;
preparing plans and practical documents;
everyday decisions and follow-up;
support adapted to your preferred communication style.

The exact role of your Amigo depends on your needs and on what you define during the onboarding process.

Your information and your choices

Your Personal Amigo is created using the relevant information and preferences you choose to share. You remain in control of what you provide.

Please share only information that is relevant to creating and using your Amigo. Avoid including unnecessary sensitive information about yourself or other people.

For more information, please read our Privacy Policy.

Clear boundaries

A Personal Amigo can help you think, learn, plan and explore. It is not a romantic or sexual partner, therapist, doctor, lawyer or financial adviser. It does not provide diagnoses, professional representation or guaranteed results.

Information about financial topics, including crypto, is general information and not a guarantee or personal financial advice. In urgent or dangerous situations, contact an appropriate human professional or emergency service.
