LeCuckoo Inc Announces Provisional Patent Filing for the World’s First Comprehensive Creator Compensation Model in Food-Tech
September 23, 2025 — Seattle, WA
LeCuckoo Inc, parent company of LUC.cooking, today announced the filing of its provisional patent covering a first-of-its-kind platform that combines AI-powered personalization, community-driven food experiences, and a comprehensive royalty-based compensation model for recipe creators.
Customers First. Creators First. LUC's Sustainable Home for Content
For the past year, LeCuckoo has been operating in stealth mode, quietly building the system architecture, creator programs, and customer experiences that will define the future of food-tech. The result is an ecosystem where customers can personalize recipes, organize their food journeys, and curate custom cookbooks — while creators are recognized as true artists and compensated fairly for their work.
“At LeCuckoo, our mantra is simple: customers first, creators first,” said Symone Opara, Founder and CEO of LeCuckoo Inc. “We’ve designed LUC.cooking to let customers make recipes their own, manage their food journeys, and connect with the support of the LUC community and AI. At the same time, we’ve built a compensation model that allows creators to grow with LUC — earning royalties based on engagement, subscription referrals, and direct recipe sales, including recipes sold through personalized cookbooks.”
As Harvard Business School’s Theodore Levitt once said, “People don’t want to buy a quarter-inch drill. They want a quarter-inch hole!” In other words, customers seek results, not tools for their own sake. Unlike today’s online food management platforms that compete by stacking repetitive features, LUC.cooking is designed to deliver outcomes — personalization, attribution, and true creator compensation — that create lasting value.
Pioneering a New Standard: The First Royalty-Based Home for Food Creators
“Recipe developers are artists,” Opara added. “Just like musicians or filmmakers, they deserve recognition and fair compensation. With LUC.cooking, we’re introducing the world’s first and only royalty-based compensation program for food creators, modeled on what works best in other creative industries. LUC becomes the essential, secure repository where recipes live, are attributed, and monetized — enabling creators to stabilize and significantly grow their careers.”
Patent Highlights
The provisional patent application covers multiple innovations, including:
A multi-modal royalty framework that rewards recipe creators based on engagement, referrals, and direct transactions — including a program that lets creators share in LUC’s financial growth.
A traceable recipe system that ensures attribution while enabling safe personalization by customers, and includes methods for food traceability to assist businesses with regulatory compliance.
A customer-facing personalization engine, powered by AI, that transforms recipes into tailored food experiences through advanced AI-driven creator tools.
Secure off-platform distribution of recipe content via Licensed Interstitial Content (LIC) Applets with integrated telemetry.
