## What is Chef Compass?

Chef Compass — Culinary Intelligence for Chefs at Sea

Chef Compass is the essential sourcing tool for professional chefs at sea. Log extraordinary ingredients, share market discoveries with your fleet, and build a living map of the world's best suppliers — all from the galley.

LOG FINDS IN SECONDS
Snap a photo and let AI do the heavy lifting. Chef Compass automatically identifies your ingredient, selects a category, and writes your chef's notes — all before you've put the camera down. Add your GPS coordinates, name the market stand, and log it in one tap. No camera? Log text-only finds with a category icon.

YOUR FLEET'S GLOBAL MAP
Every find from every chef in your network lands on an interactive world map. Pull into a new port and instantly see what fellow chefs have already discovered — rare suppliers, seasonal gems, standout market stalls. The fleet's collective knowledge is always at your fingertips.

AI-POWERED SUBSTITUTES
Can't find the exact ingredient? Chef Compass suggests smart substitutes with chef-level reasoning — what to reach for instead, and exactly why it works. Powered by Gemini AI, it thinks like a chef so you don't have to improvise blind.

YOUR PERSONAL LOGBOOK
History tracks every find you've explored. Confirm visits, review notes, and build a searchable personal record of the best markets and suppliers around the world. Your logbook travels with you from port to port.

KEY FEATURES
- AI photo analysis — auto-fills ingredient, category & chef's notes from a single shot
