Tamelo is your AI taste companion for eating out. Instead of endless lists and group-chat debates, tell Melo what you're in the mood for and get one clear restaurant pick — chosen for your taste, your location, and the moment. Melo learns what you actually like. The more you use Tamelo — keeping, passing, comparing, saving, and telling Melo "liked it" or "not for me" — the sharper your picks get. Your cuisines, dealbreakers, dietary needs, and budget all shape what Melo suggests, and you stay in control from your Taste profile. For you • Tell Melo a craving and get one focused pick, with a short note on why it fits • Or browse a small, food-first shortlist and compare nearby spots — no endless scrolling • Save places to your Want to Try list and let Melo choose from them later • Dial personalization up for smart picks, or "surprise me" to widen the net With friends — Group Melo • Everyone joins, then each writes one short private note: what they want, what to avoid, what matters tonight • Notes stay private — nobody sees what anyone else wrote • Melo reads the room and recommends one restaurant, so you skip the debate and just go Your taste profile is yours: Melo personalizes only when you allow it, and you can pause or clear its memory anytime. Tamelo is for deciding where to eat — not recipes, groceries, payments, or reservations. Location is used to find places near you; signing in saves your taste profile, Want to Try list, and group sessions.
