Frequently asked questions.

LLMenu.ai turns your menus, hours, and business details into structured llms.txt files that AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity can read. When someone asks an AI for a restaurant recommendation, your business is positioned to be discovered, recommended, and ordered from.

Traditional listings are built for human eyes scanning a search results page. AI assistants don't browse — they parse structured data and synthesize an answer. LLMenu.ai gives the AI a clean, machine-readable version of your menu so it can confidently recommend you. Keep your existing listings; this complements them.

Yes. ChatGPT has 200M+ weekly users and powers Uber Eats orders inside ChatGPT. Apple, Google, and Microsoft are integrating AI assistants into their default search experiences. The shift to AI-first discovery is happening now, not in some theoretical future.

Restaurants, cafes, bakeries, grocery stores, food trucks, ghost kitchens, and bars. Anyone with a menu, products, hours, and a physical or delivery presence benefits from being AI-discoverable.

No. You get a full 14-day trial without entering payment information. Sign up, complete setup, and your listing goes live immediately.

Your listing stays live and visible to AI agents. To keep updating menus, syncing your POS, and accessing fresh analytics, you'll need to subscribe. Nothing is auto-charged because we don't take a card up front.

Yes, cancel anytime from your dashboard settings. Your listing remains live in the AI ecosystem; only updates and new analytics are paused.

Premium pricing is custom and based on your number of locations, POS integrations, menu update frequency, and SLA needs. Reach out via the contact page and we'll send a quote within one business day.

Yes. We offer multi-location pricing and have a community plan for non-profits and student-run kitchens. Contact us with details and we'll put a proposal together.

About 10 minutes for the typical restaurant. Upload a menu (PDF, image, spreadsheet, or POS export), confirm the parsed items, fill in hours and a short description, and your listing is live and AI-readable.

PDF, JPG/PNG photos of printed menus, CSV/Excel exports, Google Doc and Word menus, and direct POS imports from Square, Toast, and Clover. We OCR images automatically and let you correct anything our model gets wrong.

Yes. Connect Square, Toast, or Clover from Settings → POS, and any menu, price, or availability change pushed to your POS will sync to your listing within a few hours. No manual re-uploads needed.

From the dashboard you can update hours, mark holidays, and post limited-time specials. Changes propagate to your llms.txt file within minutes so AI assistants see the updated info on their next fetch.

Optional. We host your llms.txt at llmenu.ai/listing/your-slug/llms.txt by default. If you want it served from your own domain, copy the small tracking script from Settings and add it to your site head — instructions are in the dashboard.

We optimize for ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot, and emerging AI search products. As new assistants launch, we update the llms.txt format to match — no work required from you.

Each row counts one time an AI assistant fetched your llms.txt file to answer a user's question. We deduplicate against follow-up fetches of the same listing so the number reflects unique recommendation events, not raw bot traffic.

Yes. The Analytics page breaks down recommendations by agent — ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, etc. — so you know which AI surfaces are driving the most discovery.

Your llms.txt updates within minutes of saving changes. Each AI assistant has its own cache: ChatGPT and Perplexity refresh within hours, while some search-style indexers can take a day or two.

Yes — Uber Eats restaurant ordering is live inside ChatGPT today, and DoorDash and Instacart already power grocery ordering. Having a clean LLMenu.ai listing makes you a candidate when those AI ordering surfaces look for matching restaurants.

Just what you put into your listing (menu, hours, contact info, business description) plus anonymized analytics about which AI agents fetched your llms.txt. We do not collect end-user data — diners' identities never leave the AI assistant they're using.

Never. Your menu is only made available to AI assistants through the public llms.txt URL associated with your listing. We do not sell, license, or share your data with marketing companies, third-party data brokers, or competing platforms.

Yes. From Settings you can disable the listing — it instantly returns 404 to AI fetchers — or delete the business entirely, which permanently removes all your data from our systems within 30 days.

Yes. We follow GDPR and CCPA principles: data minimization, owner-only RLS-protected access in Supabase, the right to access and delete, and a documented privacy policy. Contact us for a copy of our DPA if you need one.
