Time/week spent: 5h - 15h

When running an AI personalized nutrition and meal planning service as a side hustle, the time commitment typically ranges from 5 to 15 hours per week. Initially, more time, around 10 to 15 hours, might be needed for setting up the service, including learning about AI algorithms, creating meal plans, and setting up client management systems. As the business stabilizes, the time required usually decreases to around 5 to 10 hours per week. Tasks during this time include client consultation, adjusting meal plans, administrative work, and marketing efforts to attract new clients. People online often mention that this side hustle can be demanding initially due to the learning curve and customization required for each client, but once streamlined, it becomes more manageable.
