AI Suite
The POS with a brain.
MenuPay's AI runs through setup, daily operations and marketing — it builds your venue from a photo, answers your numbers in plain English, flags what changed, and writes your copy. Not a bolt-on chatbot; a co-pilot baked through the product.
AI that earns its place across the whole operation.
It sets the venue up, tells you how the business is doing, helps you make more money, and serves your customers directly — all while you stay in control of every feature.
From a paper menu to a live venue in one photo.
Snap or upload a photo of your menu. The AI extracts every item, price and category and proposes a complete setup, then a guided assistant builds the rest with you — conversationally.
- Menu-photo setup — items, prices and categories pulled straight from a photo.
- Guided AI onboarding — batched actions across Venue, Menu, Staff, Tables, Inventory, Kitchen and Promotions, each with a confidence indicator you can expand, edit field-by-field, or remove.
- Confirm All / Reject All — or a full-screen Review & Confirm, with an Added / Failed / Skipped summary after it runs.
- Cuisine templates — prefill from Café, Fine Dining, Pub, Pizza or Asian starting points.
Ask your data a question. Get the chart back.
Type something like “how did lunch compare to last week?” and MenuPay streams a written answer with the chart embedded — bar, line or doughnut. One click also writes your daily briefing.
- AI Insights — plain-English questions, streaming answers, suggested prompts to start.
- Daily AI briefing — a written summary of today’s performance on demand.
- Honest comparisons — when there’s no real baseline, it says so instead of inventing a misleading number.
It comes to you
The dashboard tells you what changed — before you ask.
A “what’s notable” card surfaces anomalies on its own, so a quiet problem doesn’t hide until month-end. You don’t have to know which report to open.
“Voided orders are up on Tuesday — 3, versus your usual 0 across the last four weeks.”
Surfaced automatically on the owner dashboard.
It helps you sell more, and writes the words to do it.
MenuPay mines your last 30 days of sales for item pairings, and writes the menu, promotion and ad copy right where you’re editing them.
- AI upsell suggestions — pairings filtered by Complements, Upgrades, Add-ons or Cross-sells, each with the reasoning.
- AI copywriting — menu-item descriptions, promotion copy and ad copy generated inline.
- AI draft roster — a starting schedule from staff preferences, time-off and four weeks of demand.
On the customer’s screen, too.
The same intelligence helps guests order — search, recommendations and a chatbot fed by your own FAQs.
-
AI menu search
Customers find dishes by craving, not category — “something spicy and vegetarian”.
-
Smart recommendations
Personalised suggestions on the ordering screens lift basket size without a hard sell.
-
Customer chatbot
Answers questions from your own FAQs — hours, allergens, bookings — so staff don’t have to.
Every AI feature has an off switch.
A master switch turns the whole co-pilot on or off, and eleven features toggle one by one — so you decide exactly where AI shows up. A usage dashboard keeps the cost transparent.
- Usage & cost dashboard — 7/30/90-day API calls, estimated cost, tokens and usage by feature.
- Master switch plus eleven individual feature toggles.
