Overview
Allspice is built as a long-term platform for food publishers and creators. We ship continuously, and this roadmap highlights major work currently in progress and what’s coming next.
Timelines may shift as we prioritize reliability, performance, and publisher needs. If there’s a feature you want prioritized, reach out through the Publisher Portal - we actively incorporate your feedback into roadmap planning.
Now - In Progress
These initiatives are actively being built and may roll out incrementally.
Pico 3.5
Continued development of Pico with stronger agentic behavior, more reliable tool execution, improved context awareness, and better interactions across recipes, grocery lists, meal planning, and cooking workflows.
Memberships and paywalled recipe support
Giving publishers the ability to offer paid memberships, premium recipes, subscriber-only content, and recurring reader benefits directly through their sites.
Allspice Private Network
Building a premium, publisher-controlled version of Allspice with publisher-only branding, private content boundaries, multi-site support, and direct access to audience and intent data generated within the publisher’s environment.
Improved publisher control over Pico
Giving publishers greater control over how Pico responds, prioritizes content, recommends recipes, and represents their brand.
Recipe editing in the Publisher Portal
Allowing publishers to review, edit, and override parsed recipe information, including ingredients, instructions, timing, servings, images, and recipe structure.
Attributed Allspice subscription payouts
Completing the systems that attribute eligible Allspice subscription revenue to publisher partners and distribute the appropriate revenue share.
GDPR readiness
Finalizing consent, privacy, account-management, and data-handling infrastructure required for broader international availability.
Next
These are the next major initiatives after the current in-progress work ships.
Publisher groups and multi-site search
Enabling publishers with multiple domains, brands, or creator networks to provide search and discovery across a combined, approved recipe library.
Additional publisher data integrations
Providing eligible publishers with more ways to export or connect audience and intent data to their own analytics, marketing, CRM, and data infrastructure.
Planned
These initiatives are confirmed directions but are not yet scheduled for a specific release window.
Advanced audience insights
Expanding publisher analytics to surface aggregated trends across searches, saves, reader questions, meal plans, shopping activity, cooking behavior, preferences, and return visits.
Enhanced commerce flows
Expanding grocery and commerce integrations, improving attribution, and providing better conversion and revenue reporting.
Social creator pages
Creating hosted Allspice-powered pages where creators can publish searchable, interactive recipe libraries without operating a traditional recipe website.
Native advertising within Allspice
Supporting publisher-controlled advertising placements within appropriate Allspice experiences while preserving usability and compatibility with existing monetization systems.
