How it works
1. Photograph your menu
A photo of each page, or a PDF. It reads every dish, description and price into sections; you check them and save.

Quick start suggests questions from your menu (what's in it, what it costs, what to suggest with it), or write your own in the house wording. Publish it.

Questions
- Do my staff need an account or an app?
- No. Each person gets their own link, by WhatsApp, email or a QR code you show them. It opens the quiz in their phone's browser, and they can add it to their home screen.
- What if it reads a dish wrong?
- You check everything before it's saved: every dish, description and price can be changed, and anything it wasn't sure of is marked “Check this”. You can also type the menu in yourself.
- What do you keep about my staff?
- A first name and their quiz results, and nothing else: no email or phone number. When you remove someone, their link stops at once and their results go a year later. The privacy page has the details.
- Can it look like my place?
- Yes: pick one of three looks, your own colour and your logo, and every quiz your staff see wears them.
- What does it cost?
- Nothing while it's being tried out with a few venues. Leave your email and we'll tell you when it opens, and what it'll cost then, before you're asked to pay anything.
