Terms of service.
Effective October 6, 2026. Last updated October 14, 2026.
These terms are an agreement between you and Solari Family LLC (“Solari,” “we,” or “us”). They cover the Solari app for iPhone, the solari.family website, and the services that run them (together, “Solari”). By creating an account or using Solari, you agree to these terms and to our privacy policy. If you do not agree, please do not use Solari.
The service.
Solari drafts a week of dinners from your cookbook and Solari’s own recipes, plans around the allergies, diets, and preferences you give it, builds a shopping list from the week, and walks you through cooking. You can bring in recipes from links, text, photos, and files, talk with Solari to change your week, and send your list to a grocery store you connect. We may add, change, or remove features over time.
Who may use Solari.
Solari is offered in the United States. You must be at least 18 years old to create an account, and able to agree to these terms. An adult may add children to the household as profiles (with names, ages, allergies, and food preferences), but children may not create or manage an account.
You are responsible for keeping your Apple sign-in secure, for activity under your account, and for the accuracy of what you enter for your household.
Your family.
A Solari family is shared. Every adult you invite can see and change the family’s week, cookbook, shopping list, and household details, including what Solari has learned about your household. Invite only people you trust with that information. If you leave a family that other adults share, what the family created stays with them.
Your content.
“Your content” means what you put into Solari: recipes, links, photos, files, notes, messages, ratings, and household details. You keep whatever rights you have in it.
You give Solari a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, copy, process, format, and display your content only as needed to run Solari for you and your family, keep it secure, and fix problems. That includes sending it to the service providers described in our privacy policy to do that work. This license ends when your content is deleted, except for content that other adults in your family keep, recipes another family saved from a link you shared, and copies that remain as our privacy policy describes. We do not sell your content or use it for advertising.
You are responsible for having the right to add what you add.
Recipes from other people.
Recipes you import from a website, a social post, or another creator belong to the people who made them. When you share or import one, Solari saves a copy for your family’s own use, with credit and a link back to where it came from. Saving a recipe does not transfer ownership to you or to Solari, and it does not give anyone the right to republish it. If you share a Solari link to a recipe that came from someone else, the page shows its title, its ingredients, credit and a link to the original. The creator’s method and photo stay with the original. If you are a creator with a concern, see our support page.
Using Solari well.
Please use Solari only for lawful, personal, household purposes. You may not:
- Access, or try to access, another family’s account or information.
- Interfere with Solari, its security, or the services it relies on.
- Use bots, scrapers, or other automated means to copy, probe, overload, or extract content from Solari without our written permission.
- Copy, sell, or republish recipes or other content from Solari, except as the law or the owner allows.
- Reverse engineer Solari, except where the law allows it.
- Add unlawful, harmful, deceptive, or infringing material, or use Solari to harass anyone.
- Try to make Solari’s AI features produce harmful content or ignore their safety rules.
AI features can be wrong.
Solari uses AI models to help draft weeks, read and fill in recipes, answer questions, suggest swaps, name the food it sees in a photo, and draw recipe illustrations (each labeled “AI recipe illustration.”). AI output can be incomplete, inaccurate, or unexpected. Amounts, times, temperatures, steps, substitutions, and what a photo shows can all be wrong. Please read a recipe before you cook it and use your own judgment. An illustration is not a photo of the finished dish.
Food, allergies, and health.
Solari flags, it does not certify. Solari flags recipes that contain the allergens you have told it about, it keeps severe allergens out of the weeks it drafts, and it plans those weeks around the diets you tell it about. It does not certify that any recipe, ingredient, product, or substitution is safe for anyone. Recipe data, ingredient names, store products, and allergen flags can be incomplete or wrong, and a photo cannot show whether food is safe.
You are responsible for what you cook and serve. Check ingredient labels, recipes, and how food is prepared, and follow safe food handling and cooking temperatures. Solari is not medical, nutritional, or dietary advice. If anyone in your household has an allergy or medical condition, follow the guidance of their doctor instead of Solari. In an emergency, call 911.
Other companies’ services.
Solari works with services run by other companies, including Kroger and the Kroger family of stores, Amazon (Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods Market), Apple (Sign in with Apple, Reminders, alarms, and the App Store), and the websites and social platforms your recipes come from. Their terms and privacy policies apply when you use them. We do not control those services and are not responsible for them.
When you send your list to a store, the store decides prices, availability, substitutions, and delivery, and product matches can be wrong. You review your cart and complete any order with the store, not with Solari, and we are not a party to that purchase. A Kroger connection belongs to your family, so any adult in your family can send to that cart. To disconnect Kroger from Solari, email us.
Subscriptions and purchases.
Eligible new subscribers get a one-month free trial. After the trial, the annual household subscription is $79.99, billed yearly, or the monthly household subscription is $9.99, billed monthly. The annual price includes a saving of about 33% compared with twelve monthly payments. Trial eligibility, the selected plan, and renewal terms are shown before you confirm a subscription through Apple. Unless you cancel through your App Store account settings before the trial ends, your chosen paid subscription starts automatically. Subscriptions then renew automatically unless cancelled. You are not charged without confirming a subscription.
Feedback.
If you send us ideas or suggestions, we may use them to improve Solari without paying you. That does not give us ownership of your recipes, photos, or other creative work.
Creator conversations.
A creator inquiry does not grant Solari a license, create a partnership, or commit anyone to a pilot. Any creator pilot, content permission, or commercial term must be in a separate written agreement, which controls if it differs from these terms. The creator pilot principles describe our general approach.
Ending your use of Solari.
You can stop using Solari at any time. To delete your account, open You in the app and choose Delete account. The privacy policy explains what that removes.
We may suspend or end your access if you break these terms, if it is needed to protect people, families, creators, or Solari, or if the law requires it. When it is reasonable, we will tell you first. We may also change or stop offering Solari. If we stop offering it entirely, we will try to give you reasonable notice. The sections on your content, recipes from other people, disclaimers, limits on liability, and governing law continue after your use ends.
Disclaimers.
To the fullest extent the law allows, Solari is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not promise that Solari will always be available, uninterrupted, error free, or secure, or that recipes, suggestions, flags, or product matches will be accurate. Some states do not allow certain warranties to be excluded, so some of this may not apply to you.
Limits on liability.
To the fullest extent the law allows, Solari Family LLC and the people who work on Solari will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost data, profits, or goodwill, arising from or related to Solari or these terms, even if we were told they were possible. Our total liability for any claim related to Solari or these terms will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us for Solari in the 12 months before the claim, or $100. These limits do not apply where the law does not allow them, and nothing in these terms limits a right you have as a consumer that cannot be limited.
If there is a claim.
To the extent the law allows, if your breach of these terms or misuse of Solari leads to a claim against us, you agree to cover the reasonable losses and costs that result.
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Any dispute that is not resolved informally will be handled in the state or federal courts located in North Carolina, and you and Solari agree to their jurisdiction. Before filing a claim, please email us so we can try to resolve it.
Apple and the App Store.
If you downloaded Solari from the App Store, these terms are between you and Solari Family LLC, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for Solari or its content, has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for it, and is not responsible for any claims about it (including product liability claims, claims that it fails to meet a legal requirement, and consumer protection claims) or for investigating or defending a claim that it infringes someone’s intellectual property. If Solari fails to meet an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the price you paid for the app, if any. You must also follow the App Store’s terms. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.
Changes to these terms.
If we change these terms, we will update the date at the top. If a change is meaningful, we will tell you in the app or by email before it takes effect. If you keep using Solari after a change takes effect, you accept the updated terms.
