Service boundary
FamilyRecipeLegacyAI helps organize, transcribe, and format private family recipes. It does not provide nutrition, allergy, food safety, legal, or publishing advice. Families should review every ingredient, measure, name, and story before sharing or printing.
When paid recipe book prep is worth it
Buy the $49 starter after the free brief has a small sample or first 8-12 pages, enough context for OCR review, chapter planning, measurement flags, and one family reviewer. Use the $149 full prep when the family needs a fuller private booklet handoff with source mapping, permissions, proof tracking, contributor notes, archive structure, and private sharing planning. Skip payment if you need scanning, perfect OCR, physical printing, public publishing, file-permission changes, messages sent, nutrition, allergy, food-safety, copyright, legal, publishing, or printer advice, or guaranteed transcription, print quality, delivery, refunds, privacy, approval, sales, or revenue.
Can this write the email for me?
It prepares a draft and checklist; you should edit the wording for your family.
Should contributors send photos?
Only if they are comfortable and understand how the photos may appear in the private book.
