## The short version

Restaurant menu management software keeps every location's menu, prices, allergens, and nutrition accurate from one place. Honeycomb lets chains edit once and publish to one location or all of them, with drafts, approvals, translations, and guides that update automatically.

## Edit once. Publish everywhere.

1. **Bring in your menus.** Import from PDFs, images, or spreadsheets. Honeycomb structures every dish and estimates allergens and nutrition.
2. **Edit as a draft.** Make changes safely away from the live menu. Review them with your team before anything is published.
3. **Publish where you choose.** Push to one location, a group, or every location. Guest menus, guides, and staff answers update together.

## Built for menus that change every week.

The tools multi-location teams need, without a stack of disconnected files.

- **Chain-wide control.** Manage a whole organization from one place, with locations that can still differ where they need to.
- **Drafts and approvals.** Stage changes, review them, and publish on your schedule.
- **Allergens and nutrition.** Honeycomb predicts allergens, diets, calories, and macros so you start ahead, then your team verifies.
- **Translations.** Keep every language current as the menu changes.
- **Guides that follow.** Allergen guides and guest menus update automatically after every publish.
- **Manage with AI.** Ask Sous to make the change for you, from the app or from your AI assistant.

## Folders and copies, versus one living menu.

| | Files per location | Honeycomb |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Rolling out a change | Repeat it at every location | Edit once, publish to all |
| Keeping data consistent | Versions drift over time | One source of truth |
| Approvals | Email and hope | Drafts with review before publish |
| Opening a location | Copy a folder and fix it | Duplicate a restaurant and adjust |

## Frequently asked questions

### What is menu management software?

It is a system that stores your menu in one place and keeps prices, ingredients, allergens, and nutrition accurate wherever guests and staff see them.

### Is Honeycomb built for chains?

Yes. Honeycomb is designed for restaurant chains and multi-location groups, with organization-wide edits and per-location control.

### Can we approve changes before they go live?

Yes. Changes are staged as drafts and only go live when someone publishes them.
