What Does Foodini Do? From Menu Data to Personalised Diner Menus

Step 1: Menu and Recipe Data Ingestion via Sysco, US Foods, and GFS

Foodini starts by ingesting your menu data — menus, recipes, and product lists — from your inventory and recipe management systems. Critically, Foodini is integrated with major food suppliers — Sysco, US Foods, and GFS — which means for every product you purchase through those distributors, Foodini can pull the exact product number and specification data.

Step 2: AI Tagging Plus Registered Dietitian QA

Once the data is ingested, Foodini's AI-powered tagging system processes every menu recipe and product for the correct allergen and dietary information across every layer of the recipe. A single menu item can contain 20 sub-products, each with up to 50 ingredients. A team of registered dietitians then QAs every output.

Step 3: Personalised Guest Allergen Menu via QR Code

In venue, this is a QR code on the menu or menu board. A guest scans, creates their dietary profile from 150+ options — not just the nine major allergens, but gluten, vegan, keto, sesame, low-FODMAP, and every other dietary need — and instantly sees which menu items are safe for them.

Step 4: Guest Dietary Profile Data Back to Your CRM

Every dietary profile created is trackable data. With the guest's consent, Foodini can connect dietary profile data to the restaurant's CRM or customer data platform — so the restaurant's marketing team knows that a specific guest is a coeliac and can send menu communications that are actually relevant to them.
