The Intelligence

It doesn't just read the menu.
It understands food.

Hidden ingredients

Tracing chains the menu hides

Worcestershire → anchovies. Croutons → wheat. Parmesan → animal rennet. Every chain is surfaced.

Kitchen risk

Cross-contamination, fryer oil, shared boards

Preparation risks beyond the ingredient list — the things waiters often forget to mention.

Severity scale

A peanut allergy is not a mild lactose intolerance

Four severity levels per restriction so the result matches your actual risk, not a generic label.

Confidence

Tells you when it is unsure

When confidence is lower than usual, AlignEat says so — and gives you the right questions to ask.

Group Mode

One scan. Everyone's safe.

One is halal, one is celiac, one has a nut allergy, one is vegan. Scan the menu once — AlignEat shows the dishes everyone can eat, the ones that work with tweaks, and the ones to skip entirely.

Do I need to create a new profile every time?

No. Set up once — allergies, intolerances, religious requirements, preferences — and AlignEat remembers everywhere. Every scan uses your saved profile automatically.

What if the menu is in another language?

AlignEat handles printed, digital, and handwritten menus in over 30 languages. Just point your camera.

How does AlignEat know the ingredients?

We cross-reference each dish against a continuously updated food intelligence engine covering ingredients, preparation methods, and cross-contamination risks. When confidence is lower than usual, we tell you — and give you the right questions to ask your server.

Can I scan for my whole family?

Yes. Create a profile for each member, then use Group Mode to scan against everyone's needs simultaneously. AlignEat highlights dishes safe for the entire group.

Is AlignEat a replacement for telling the restaurant?

No — and we're upfront about that. AlignEat is a powerful first filter, but for severe allergies always inform staff. Our Waiter Question Cards make that conversation easier in any language.
