Menu & Catalogue Translation — Appetising in Any Language
Upload your menu or product catalogue. AI agents translate every item with culturally adapted descriptions, allergen terms, and measurement conversions. Compare drafts in ~60 seconds.
What's in Your Menu & Catalogue Translation
Every translation captures the appeal of your original descriptions — not bland literal translations that make dishes or products sound clinical.
Fully Translated Menu or Catalogue
Every item name, description, category header, and footnote translated with appealing, natural-sounding language.
Allergen & Dietary Labels
Allergen warnings, dietary markers (vegan, GF, halal), and ingredient lists translated using internationally recognised terminology.
Measurement & Currency Conversion
Weights, volumes, sizes, and prices adapted to local conventions (kg/lb, ml/oz, cm/in) with correctly formatted numbers.
Appealing Descriptions
Sensory and evocative language preserved — not flattened into literal translations. 'Pan-seared' stays appetising, not clinical.
Structured Format Preserved
Category groupings, item numbering, price columns, and layout structure maintained for easy print or digital menu import.
Cultural Adaptation Notes
Flagged items that may need cultural context — unfamiliar ingredients, region-specific dishes, or items with no direct translation.
“Our restaurant menu needed Japanese translation for tourism season. The AI nailed the food terminology — 'pan-seared scallops' came back sounding just as appetising. Even converted to yen and flagged allergens correctly.”

Why AI Menu Translation Beats Generic Translators
Appetising, Not Literal

Scored for Accuracy & Appeal
Every translation is evaluated for culinary terminology accuracy, descriptive quality, allergen correctness, and cultural appropriateness.
Format & Measurement Aware
Weights, volumes, currencies, and allergen labels automatically converted to target-market conventions. No manual reformatting.
Menu & Catalogue Translation — Common Questions
Can you translate menus with speciality or regional dishes?
Yes. AI agents handle regional dishes by providing the translated name plus a brief explanatory description in parentheses when the dish has no direct equivalent — e.g., 'Pavlova (meringue-based dessert with cream and fresh fruit)'. Cultural adaptation notes flag every such decision.
Do you handle allergen and dietary information?
Yes. Allergen warnings (gluten, nuts, dairy, shellfish, etc.) and dietary markers (vegan, vegetarian, halal, kosher, GF) are translated using internationally recognised terminology specific to the target market.
Will you convert measurements and currencies?
Yes. Weights (g/oz/lb), volumes (ml/fl oz), temperatures (°C/°F), and currencies are converted to the target market's conventions. You can specify whether to keep original units alongside converted ones.
What format will I receive?
Translated text maintains your original structure — categories, item numbering, price columns, and footnotes. Output is plain text or markdown, ready to paste into your menu design software, POS system, or website CMS.
How long does menu translation take?
You'll see 3–5 competing translated versions within about 60 seconds. After selecting and paying, the final version with allergen tables and cultural notes is delivered in under 2 minutes.
What if some dish descriptions don't translate well?
You can remix the task for $1.50 AUD to get fresh translations with adjusted cultural adaptation. Add notes about which descriptions need more creative treatment in the remix brief.
