After weeks of building, Carte AI is live:
carte-ai.com
I wanted a tool that treats a menu like the room. Designed, voiced, intentional. Most restaurant menus today are Word docs someone screenshotted onto a QR builder. Most "AI menu generators" hand you a one-shot PDF and call it done.
Carte is the design-partner version. You sit with the agent like a designer, chat-refine, comment on a specific dish, undo any turn, restore wild ideas. When the menu is right, one publish freezes a permanent edition: a hosted mobile page, a branded QR card, and a print-ready PDF, all rendered from the same source. Each edition lives on its own URL forever. The QR you print today still resolves in five years.
Five hand-designed templates Classic, French Cotton, Italian Linen, Japanese Washi, Ottoman Parchment each with codified typography and voice. A kaiseki menu shouldn't read like a brasserie.
Free to draft as long as you want. $4.99 when you publish. No subscription.
The same product serves a restaurant chain and a single dinner party for six.
If you try it, I'd love your feedback. 🍽️
