Serve your menu in your customers' languages

The language switcher, the one-tap suggestion, translated interface languages, right-to-left, and the menu's Languages settings.

Customers can read your menu and talk to the AI waiter in their own language. You choose which languages a menu offers; customers pick from a switcher in the menu header.

The customer menu on a phone with the language list open: English, Arabic, French, Spanish and Japanese
The language switcher. The menu, its labels and the chat follow the customer's choice.

How it works for customers

  1. 1
    tamr suggests their language

    On a first visit, if the phone is set to a language the menu offers, a one-tap line appears: "Read this menu in French?" It is a suggestion, never an automatic switch, and it is offered once per restaurant.

  2. 2
    They pick a language

    The Menu language switcher in the header lists every language the menu offers. The menu content, the interface labels and the chat all switch.

  3. 3
    It is remembered

    The choice is saved for your restaurant, so another of your menus opens in the same language.

FAQ

Do I have to translate the menu myself?

No. Add the language and tamr translates your dishes, and keeps the translation in step when you edit the menu.

Why don't I see a language switcher on my menu?

It appears when the menu offers more than one language.

Can the AI waiter answer in a language the menu is not translated into?

Yes. The waiter's languages are separate from the menu's. With no restriction, it answers in whatever language the customer writes in.
