FAQ
Edamam alternative — FAQ
- Can I use Gastrona instead of Edamam?
- If your use case is pairing, wine and meal recommendations rather than nutrition analysis, yes. We're API-first and help scope a migration in a pilot.
- Does Gastrona handle wine pairing?
- Yes — it's our core product. We return scored pairings with a reason for each, from a 110,000-wine catalog tuned on real behaviour.
- How is pricing structured?
- We scope commercial terms to your use case in a pilot rather than a public tier. Email us for a proposal.
- Does Gastrona provide nutrition data like Edamam?
- We focus on the flavour, texture and dietary signals that drive pairing quality rather than full nutrition-label analysis. For deep nutrition data, Edamam may fit better; for pairing, Gastrona does.
