A digital menu for restaurants, ready in an afternoon
Upload the PDF you already have and artificial intelligence turns it into a digital menu with a QR code. You read it back, fix what needs fixing and publish. Without retyping one dish at a time.
The AI writes the menu, you correct it
The part that makes everyone postpone this is retyping two hundred dishes by hand. With Takeat you do not do it.
You upload what you have
Whatever you already have: a PDF from the printer, a scan, even a photo taken on your phone.
The AI reads the menu
It recognises categories, dish names, descriptions and prices, and puts them in the right place.
You correct what is off
Read it back, fix what needs fixing, add dish photos if you have them. The bulk is already done.
You publish
Print the table QR codes and the menu is online. From then on you update it whenever you like.
What you actually gain
What a printed menu cannot do.
Filterable allergens
Attach allergens to each dish and the guest filters out what they cannot eat themselves. Fewer questions for the waiter, less risk for you.
Instant updates
Change a price or remove a dish you have run out of and it is live immediately. No reprinting, no old menu still circulating between tables.
AI assistant for guests
Guests can ask in plain language what is gluten free or what pairs with a wine, and the assistant answers by reading your menu.
It takes orders, it does not just display
From the digital menu the guest can order directly, and the ticket reaches the kitchen without passing through a scrap of paper.
What actually changes
There is no shortage of free digital menus. The difference is not the menu, it is what you can do on top of it.

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to create a digital menu?
As long as it takes to upload the menu and read it back. With a tidy PDF that is an afternoon, not days. The long part, retyping dishes and prices by hand, is done by the AI.
Does the guest have to download an app?
No, and neither does the guest. The menu opens in the phone browser by scanning the QR code. It works on any smartphone, iPhone or Android, with nothing to install.
What formats can I upload?
PDFs, images and photos taken on a phone. If the menu is handwritten or the photo is badly skewed the result gets worse, but in most cases it works and you can correct everything anyway.
Can I correct what the AI gets wrong?
Yes, every field stays editable. The AI gets you ninety per cent of the way there, the final check is yours. Prices and allergens are always worth verifying by hand before publishing.
Does it handle allergens?
Yes. Allergens are attached to dishes and the guest can filter the menu to exclude what they cannot eat, without having to ask the waiter.
If I change a price do I have to redo everything?
You update the dish from the panel and the change is live immediately. Anyone scanning the QR code a minute later sees the new price. No reprinting, no stale menus doing the rounds.
