About Platoo

A menu that updates faster than a guest can sit down

Platoo is a digital QR menu service for restaurants, cafés, bars, bakeries, and other food service venues. We build a tool that replaces the paper menu with a convenient, living, always up-to-date digital version — so you never have to print new booklets just because a price changed or a seasonal dish appeared.

Our story

Platoo was founded in 2025 by a small but close-knit team from Ukraine, Romania, Poland, and Georgia. We see every day how fast the restaurant business is going digital across Europe, and how much is still missing in terms of tools that are genuinely simple to use for the owner of a small café or bakery. That's how Platoo came to be: a service a restaurant owner can set up entirely on their own, with no need for an outside designer, developer, or agency.

The problem we solve

Platoo was founded in 2025 by a small but close-knit team from Ukraine, Romania, Poland, and Georgia. We see every day how fast the restaurant business is going digital across Europe, and how much is still missing in terms of tools that are genuinely simple to use for the owner of a small café or bakery. That's how Platoo came to be: a service a restaurant owner can set up entirely on their own, with no need for an outside designer, developer, or agency.

Restaurants, cafés, and bars face the same recurring challenges every day: a paper menu goes out of date faster than the printing cost is recovered, changing the price of a single item means another trip to the print shop, and guests from other countries often simply can't understand what's written on the menu. Add to that the queues at the counter, the time staff spend bringing and collecting menus, and the impossibility of quickly testing a new dish without risking having to reprint the whole batch.

A QR menu solves these problems with a single motion of a smartphone camera: the guest scans the code on the table or at the entrance and instantly sees the current lineup — with photos, ingredients, prices, and special offers. The venue doesn't need to spend on design and printing every time something changes: the menu is edited online and updates instantly.

What Platoo can do

  • Multilingual by default. The menu is available in 10 languages — guests from any country see dish names and descriptions in their own language, and you don't need to hire a translator.
  • You fill in the menu yourself — or we can do it for you. Usually the restaurant owner adds, hides, and edits items themselves, at any time, with no outside administrator involved. But if time or resources are tight, we can fill in the menu for you on request: just send us the dish details, and the Platoo team will take care of the rest.
  • AI-generated dish descriptions. If you're short on time or inspiration to write an appetizing description, artificial intelligence will do it for you in seconds.
  • Analytics. We're continuously developing our analytics tools, so you can see which dishes get viewed most often and which ones are worth removing or reworking.
  • All venue information in one place. Address, Wi-Fi, social media links, available delivery services, and photos of your venue and dishes — guests find all of this right next to the menu, without switching between apps.
  • Promotions and special offers. Easily highlight a dish of the day, a seasonal menu, or a discount — no need to stick new labels on a paper menu.
  • Allergens, ingredients, and preparation time. Transparent information reduces questions to staff and builds guest trust, especially among those watching their diet or with food restrictions.

Why you can trust us

The menu is the face of a venue, and it needs to work flawlessly at any moment: during the lunchtime rush, on a Friday evening, or during a surge of tourists. We treat Platoo's reliability with the same seriousness that restaurant owners treat the quality of their kitchen. We monitor the service's stability, quickly resolve any technical issues, and continuously improve the platform — so the venue owner can be confident that guests will open the menu in a split second, wherever they are and whatever device they scan the code with.

We understand that by entrusting us with their menu, a restaurant owner is also entrusting us with part of their venue's reputation — and we take that responsibility seriously.

  • We meet you where you are

    Every venue is unique: a bakery has its own challenges, a bar has its own, and a restaurant with several dining rooms operates on a completely different scale. We don't force customers into a rigid template — we try to listen to what your business actually needs. If you need help with setup, have a feature request, or simply a question, we're reachable and ready to work it out together, rather than pointing you to a three-hundred-page manual.We value our users' loyalty and try to return it with flexible terms, a willingness to listen to feedback, and attention to the details that matter to you.
  • Who Platoo is for

    We build Platoo for restaurants, cafés, bars, bakeries, and similar venues across Europe — from a small family-run coffee shop to a venue with several dining rooms. If it matters to you that your menu looks polished, updates without delay, and is easy to understand for a guest from any country, Platoo is for you.
  • Our approach

    We believe a digital menu shouldn't require a restaurant owner to have design or coding skills. That's why we design Platoo so that everything — from uploading a dish photo to translating the menu into ten languages — takes minutes, not days. We're a growing team, and we keep adding new features based on real feedback from venues already using the service.
