Spotlight Chefs

Cook for every table in town

Placeset’s Spotlight program puts verified working chefs in front of home cooks with purchase intent. Share the dishes you want people making at home — we handle the pricing, the shopping list, and the delivery.

Your food, on real tables

Placeset home cooks plan to a budget and buy the ingredients. Your recipes land in weekly menus with your name on every card, list, and share page.

Attribution everywhere

“By Chef Ana · Ember, SLO” on the card, the recipe page, and link-outs to your restaurant, book, or socials.

Placement you earn

Likes and shares drive a Spotlight ranking refreshed nightly. The best-loved chef recipes get featured placement — never pay-to-play.

Apply

Takes two minutes. We verify active industry presence for every applicant — the badge only means something if it’s real.

We verify every applicant’s active industry presence — automated checks first, then a personal review. Verified chefs get the Spotlight badge, attributed recipes, and placement earned by how much home cooks love the food. Never pay-to-play.
