What is AskFoodie.AI

AskFoodie.AI helps you turn walk-ins into a community of regulars.

It starts at the table: diners scan a QR code and chat with an AI that knows your menu — and only your menu. They can ask what's spicy, what's vegan, what's in the biryani, see photos, and build an order. No app to download, nothing to install.

Then it keeps going after they leave. A digital punch-card counts their visits toward a reward, so the guest who enjoyed Friday has a reason to come back on Tuesday — and the Foodie Network brings you diners who have never heard of you.

You run all of it from one dashboard: your menu, photos, dietary tags, tables and QR codes, orders, loyalty, and your team.

How it works

1. You set up your menu in the dashboard — type items in, or let AI scan a photo of your printed menu and fill everything in for you.
2. You put a QR code on each table. We generate them; you print them.
3. Diners scan and chat. The AI answers questions about your dishes, flags allergens, suggests options, and helps them build a cart. Diners can type or speak their question, in English or their own language (Hindi, Tamil, Mandarin, and more) — less friction for anyone who'd rather not tap it out on a phone.
4. Your staff take it from there — confirm orders, answer service requests, and clear tables, all from the same dashboard.
5. Regulars build up. Check a diner in with their 4-digit code (or an NFC tap at the counter) and their visit is punched. When the card fills, the reward lands in their wallet and they claim it on their next visit.

Nothing here asks your staff to learn a new system, and nothing asks your guests to install anything.

What's free and what's paid

Almost everything is free: the menu editor, photos, QR codes, table ordering, service requests, loyalty punch-cards, the Foodie Network, and your team's dashboard access. The only paid feature is the AI chat itself — and every restaurant gets 1,000 free AI diners before a subscription is needed. See AI chat plans & the free-diner tier.
