QRorderly: a QR menu and subscription platform that builds menus with AI

• QR menu products resemble one another; what makes the difference is how long it takes to get the menu into the system.
• A small business has no structured data: it has a PDF, a Word file, or a phone photo of the printed menu.
• Entering items one by one is why most businesses give up on a digital menu on day one.
• In a subscription model, collection is specific to Turkey: local cards, instalments and a 3D Secure flow are required.
• Plan limits have to hold everywhere in the product: the same rule must apply in the panel, in the menu and in QR generation.

• Cut the time from file to published menu down to minutes.
• Build the AI as the product's first step rather than a demo: it should be testable without signing up.
• Tie subscriptions, trial periods and plan limits to a single rule set.
• Run collection through PayTR with monthly and annual options.
• Let a business manage everything from menu to orders in one panel.

• The menu file (PDF, JPG, PNG or WEBP) is passed to Gemini Flash, which returns category headings, item names, descriptions and prices as structured data.
• Gemini Flash was chosen for its balance of speed and cost: the user is waiting on the upload screen, and extraction has to come back in seconds.
• The result is not published directly; it opens in the panel as an editable draft that the business approves and publishes.
• The panel's “upload with AI” flow works with file drag-and-drop, PDF scanning and taking a photo directly; file size is capped to keep cost predictable.
• The same extraction can be tried on the marketing site without signing up: a visitor uploads their own menu and sees the result, understanding the product's value before trying it.

• Three plans were built: Free, Pro and Plus. Each is defined by business count, item and category limits, menu languages and the number of table QR codes.
• Payment is taken through PayTR; local cards, instalments and the 3D Secure flow work the way a business is used to.
• Monthly and annual billing are offered together, with the annual discount shown directly on the price card.
• The 14-day trial starts without card details; the panel shows a countdown of days left, and when the trial ends the account drops to Free with the data preserved.
• The Plan & Subscription screen in the panel shows the current plan, a plan comparison and payment history with statuses.
• Plan limits are managed from one place; when a limit is reached the user is not blocked but routed towards an upgrade.

• Ready-made themes by business type: colour, cover and layout come prepared for cafés, restaurants, pizza places, kebab houses, bars and patisseries.
• Brand customisation: logo, colour palette, cover image and hero layout are tuned to the business's own identity.
• Multi-language support up to five languages depending on plan; for tourist-heavy businesses the menu is duplicated from one panel.
• Sold-out handling hides an item without deleting it; a price change goes live in one click, with no waiting on a printed menu.
• Chef's recommendation lifts an item to the top of the menu, and the customer side has item search and category filters.
• PDF menu export, table QR codes and a custom domain come in on the higher plans.

• Ordering over WhatsApp: the customer builds a basket from the menu and sends it as a prepared message to the business's line, with no extra app or integration cost.
• A live order panel: orders from the table land in the panel instantly and are managed with status tracking.
• Table-level QR codes identify which table an order came from.
• Customer feedback and a Google review link connect the menu experience to collecting reviews.
• View statistics show the menu's daily traffic and order count in the panel.

• The front end was built as a React single-page application; the marketing site, the customer menu and the admin panel all live inside the same application.
• The data layer talks to API endpoints under the same domain: authentication, business, category, item, plan and statistics endpoints are each defined separately.
• The application runs on Vercel, with static assets from the edge and data endpoints executing per request.
• Menu pages were built mobile-first — everyone scanning a QR code arrives on a phone — and can be added to the home screen through a PWA manifest.

Getting a menu into the system stopped being an evening's work: the file is uploaded, the AI extracts it, the business corrects and publishes. The subscription side runs itself: the trial starts, the period ends, payment is taken through PayTR or the account drops to Free; and plan limits apply by the same rule on every screen of the product.
