— 01 / Why it matters

One Menu Workflow, from Import to Publishing

IAMenu combines menu import, editing, translation, image generation, allergen suggestions, QR publishing and printable output in one restaurant workspace.

The goal is practical: reuse the menu you already have, review AI-assisted changes and publish the approved version across customer-facing formats.

Below, we show you each feature in detail: the problem it solves, how it works, and the concrete benefits for your restaurant.

— 03 / Each tool

Every feature, in detail

01

Conversational AI Assistant

Natural-language assistance for menu management

Problem: Editing the menu is tedious: click here, form there, save, repeat 100 times. Changing prices in bulk is impossible without Excel.

Solution: Your AI Assistant supports authorised menu actions through conversation. Tell it 'Create category Pizzas with 5 classic pizzas' and review the resulting category, dishes and text drafts before publishing or translating them into the active menu languages.

Command examples:

Your AI Assistant understands natural language:

  • — "Create category Desserts with sections Cakes and Ice Creams"
  • — "Increase all pizzas by 10%"
  • — "Add Coca-Cola at €2.50 in Drinks"
  • — "Duplicate the Margherita Pizza and call it Special"
  • — "Which dishes are over €15?"
  • — "Create photos for all Meat dishes"
Menu creation and editing actions
Reviewable bulk price changes
Batch photo creation
Conversation history
Smart multi-menu (asks before modifying)

Plan Limits:

  • — Available messages depend on the current plan
  • — Check the plans page before subscribing
  • — Every operation can always be reviewed from the dashboard
02

Real-time Translation in 54 Languages

AI technology with real table context

Problem: Keeping the same dish accurate across several menu languages creates repeated work and inconsistent updates.

Solution: Add a product in the source language, generate drafts for active languages and keep manual corrections protected from later automation.

Real example:

You create 'Medium-Rare Tenderloin with Potatoes' →

  • — 🇬🇧 'Medium-rare Sirloin with Potatoes' (no 'sirloin at the point')
  • — 🇮🇹 'Rare Filet with Potatoes'
  • — 🇫🇷 'Medium Filet with Potatoes'
  • — 🇩🇪 'Filetsteak Medium mit Kartoffeln'
  • — 🇵🇹 'Lombo ao Ponto com Batatas'
  • — 🇯🇵 'ミディアムフィレステーキとポテト'
54 languages available (all European + major Asian)
Translation < 5 secs per product
Real table context ('a punto' → 'medium-rare')
Backfill on the fly when activating new language
Protected manual editing (if you correct, it doesn't overwrite)

Backfill inteligente: You activate French on an existing menu → IAMenu queues the missing drafts in the background. Follow progress, review the language and publish only when the wording is ready.

03

AI photo creation

Food imagery generated with GPT Image

Problem: A restaurant may need consistent dish imagery without having a usable photo for every menu item.

Solution: Generate image options from a prompt, review them against the real dish and publish only an appropriate result.

📸 Profesional - Food photography alta calidad
🎨 Minimalist - Simple clean design
✨ Illustration - Unique artistic style
🍽️ Top view - Dish from above
🏠 Atmosphere - Restaurant context

Plan Limits:

  • — The available amount depends on the current plan
  • — Every result can be reviewed before publishing
  • — Check current limits on the plans page
04

AI table texts

Advanced AI creates texts that sell

Problem: Writing attractive texts for 100 dishes is exhausting. Either you copy the same, leave it blank, or put something generic.

Solution: AI creates unique texts for each dish. 4 styles (Professional, Marketing, Casual, Detailed) × 4 lengths. Real table context.

Example:

Pizza Margherita with tomato, mozzarella, basil →

  • — Professional: 'Authentic Neapolitan pizza with San Marzano sauce, DOP buffalo mozzarella, and fresh basil.'
  • — Marketing: 'Why did Margherita conquer the world? Try our version with dishes that speak for themselves.'
  • — Casual: 'The classic as always. Tomato, mozzarella, basil. Simple and perfect.'
  • — Detailed: 'Sourdough base fermented for 48 hours, San Marzano DOP tomato sauce, fresh buffalo milk mozzarella, Genovese basil leaves. Baked in a stone oven at 450°C.'

Plan Limits:

  • — The available amount depends on the current plan
  • — Generated texts are editable
  • — Check current limits on the plans page
05

On-the-fly finding 14 EU Allergens

Reviewable suggestions for the 14 EU allergens

Problem: Ask the chef about each dish: 'Does the carbonara contain egg?' ×100 times a day. Risk of EU fine if there is an error.

Solution: AI analyzes the name + description of the product and identifies the 14 mandatory allergens on-the-fly. You verify and edit if necessary. Icons visible in menu and PDF.

14 EU Allergens Detected:

Gluten
Crustaceans
Eggs
Fish
Peanuts
Soy
Dairy
Nuts
Celery
Mustard
Sesame
Sulphites
Lupin
Molluscs

AI output is a suggestion, not a compliance guarantee. The restaurant must verify recipes, supplier labels and cross-contamination risks.

Plan Limits:

  • — Availability depends on the current plan
  • — Manual review remains available
  • — Final responsibility lies with the venue
06

Features Frequently Asked Questions

01

Can I use AI features from day one?

New accounts can test every feature for 14 days, Premium ones included. Paid plans then apply different usage limits. Check the current pricing table before subscribing.

02

Are translations really good or Google Translate level?

Our translations use AI with gastronomic context. They know "Ropa Vieja" is a Cuban stew, not "Old Clothes". Each translation adapts to the culinary context of the dish, category, and restaurant style.

03

What can the AI assistant change?

The AI assistant can help create and edit menu structures, products, descriptions and related content through natural-language requests. Review changes before publishing, especially prices and food information.

04

Can I generate food images with AI?

Yes. IAMenu uses GPT Image for dish images and optimizes generated assets for the menu. Restaurants should review each image so it represents the dish they actually serve.

05

Can I export my menu as PDF?

06

Are QR codes customizable?

Yes. Depending on the plan, IAMenu supports QR colors, logo and printable formats. The menu URL stays usable when menu content changes, so normal updates do not require a new code.

07

What analytics does IAMenu offer?

IAMenu reports menu activity such as visits, product interest and QR usage. Retention and export capabilities depend on the current plan shown on the pricing page.
