Importing a menu from a photo

Snap your menu, CaterKit drafts the items, and you review before anything counts.

Open an event and choose Import a menu. Take a photo of a printed menu, a handwritten list, or a screenshot.

CaterKit reads the photo and drafts menu items for you: names, and a first guess at portions.

These are drafts. They are drafted from your photo. Review before it counts. Nothing is added to your event until you accept it.

Everything lands in a review queue. Check each item, fix anything that read wrong, then accept the ones you want. CaterKit never creates menu items or recipes on its own.

A blurry photo or an odd layout may misread a line. That is fine: edit it in the queue, or skip it and add the item by hand.

If a photo fails to parse at all, it does not count against your monthly import limit. Try a clearer, better-lit shot.
