Sound familiar?
The bag you threw away
That coffee that blew your mind three months ago. You tossed the bag, wrote nothing down, and today all you remember is “it was Ethiopian… I think”.
The guessing shelf
Twenty bags in front of you. Beautiful labels, words that all sound alike. You buy the pretty one — again — and halfway through the bag you remember you don't even like that profile.
The unrepeatable cup
One day you brewed THE cup. How much water was it? Which grind? Nobody knows. You've been chasing it for weeks.
Every week without memory has a cost
You taste coffee all the time — at home, in cafés, as gifts. Without memory, every purchase is a lottery again: you pay for beans you already knew you dislike, repeat mistakes under different names, and the judgment you think you're building resets with every bag that ends in the trash.
Your taste is not the average
Crowd stars know what the crowd likes — not you.
You don't need to look like an expert; you need to stop forgetting what you like.
Judgment can't be bought. It's built — with memory.
A memory that works for your palate
Not a tasting notebook. It's what your notebook could never do with what you wrote.
Log in seconds
Photo of the bag → AI fills the card (roaster, origin, variety, process). You say how it was, the way you talk — “red fruit with a weird bitter finish” — and AI translates it into your sensory profile. Twenty seconds, zero lab forms.
Understand your palate
With every record your map sharpens: which axes you prefer, which origins and processes you rate best… and the contradictions: “you believe you prefer naturals; your 5 best ratings are washed coffees”. No star-rating app can tell you that.
Decide better
At the menu or shelf: one photo, and I rank the options against YOUR history, with reasons. Out of beans? I'll tell you what to try next. Cup came out bitter? One concrete change for the next one.
How it works
Photo

Your map

News from the Kai family
When TasteMap launches a vertical (wine is designed and queued) or a new feature, we'll email you. No noise.
The questions you'd ask us
What exactly is Kai TasteMap?
An intelligent taste memory. You log what you taste (today: coffee), AI structures it, learns your palate and helps you decide: what to buy, what to order, what to repeat, what to avoid. It's not a social network or a review catalog.
How is it different from notes on my phone?
Phone notes die where you wrote them. Here every record becomes comparable data (sensory axes, notes, context) that feeds your taste map, your recommendations and your natural search. A notebook stores; TasteMap understands and recommends.
How is it different from Vivino or coffee apps?
Vivino gives you the crowd's average; technical coffee apps ask for 30 fields per cup. TasteMap bets on the opposite: 20-second capture and recommendations based on YOUR history, not strangers' stars.
Do I need to know how to taste?
No — that's the point. You write “tasted like red fruit with a weird bitter finish” and AI translates it into a structured profile. You pick up vocabulary along the way, with nobody making you feel bad for not being a sommelier. If you're a professional cupper needing full protocol, TasteMap will feel small: it's built for enthusiasts.
How long does logging take?
About 20 seconds with a photo: scan, confirm, say how it was, rate it. By hand it's no endless form either: just the name already counts as a record.
What's free and what's paid?
Free forever: manual logging, your full history, the list and filters. AI (scanning, translating impressions, your palate map, deciding, natural search) is measured in KaiCoins: the Free plan includes 500 a month — enough to try everything — and paid plans bring thousands.
What are KaiCoins?
The Kai family's AI currency, with a shared pack catalog: the same amount costs the same in any Kai product (2,000 KaiCoins = US$4.99, for example). Every action shows its cost before running (a scan costs 8) and if an action fails, it refunds itself. Purchased packs never expire.
What about my photos and data?
The photo of a bag or menu is only used to extract the data and is not stored. Your records are yours: no social feed, your data is never sold, and you can request account deletion anytime. Full details in the privacy policy.
What if the AI misreads the label?
You always confirm the card before saving, and everything is editable later. AI saves you the typing; the last word is yours.
Does it work for wine, tea or beer?
Today TasteMap is tuned for coffee — we'd rather nail one vertical than half-do five. Wine is already designed inside the architecture and will be the second vertical; Maestro subscribers get it first.
If I stop paying, do I lose my memory?
No. Your full history is kept on the Free plan; only the monthly KaiCoin quota shrinks. Your memory is yours — that's the deal.
How do I pay and how do I cancel?
By card (a subscription that renews itself) or one-time payment via PSE, Nequi, cash or card through dLocal Go. Cancel anytime and your plan stays active until the end of the paid period. First purchase comes with a 7-day guarantee.
A year from now you'll have tasted dozens of coffees. You can remember them all — or start from zero every time.
