Edit and proofread your menu in plain English
Type a change like "add an apple juice to Beverages, $3.50" or "86 the House Red" and review exactly what will change before it applies. Proofread finds typos and writes missing dish descriptions for you to accept one by one.

Edit — describe a change in plain words and click Preview. You see every change it would make; anything it was unsure about starts unchecked. Uncheck what you don't want and click Apply. It can:
- add a dish to a section, or copy an existing dish under a new name
- rename a dish or move it to another section
- mark a dish 86'd or available again
- raise or lower prices, including online and third-party upcharges, for one dish or a whole section
- add a modifier group (or one set up like an existing one) and attach modifiers to dishes
- add items to a matrix modifier group
It does not delete dishes. If a dish changed since the preview, it is skipped rather than overwritten.
Proofread — choose the whole menu, wording fixes only, dishes missing a description, or selected dishes. Each suggestion shows the old and new text with Accept / Reject; Accept all safe leaves the less certain ones for you. It never invents ingredients: dishes it cannot describe from their name are listed for you to write yourself.
