Savya is a private tasting assistant. It reads a restaurant menu and tells you what to order — food and drinks, matched to what you like, how you eat, and any food allergies you set. Sign up, pick what you love to eat, and scan your first menu. It takes about a minute to set up. IT READS THE WHOLE MENU Photograph a restaurant menu — one page or six — or scan the QR code on the table, or paste a link to a menu online, including restaurant ordering pages and PDFs. Savya reads every dish, price and ingredient it can find, ranks the whole menu against your profile, and gives you a plain sentence for each pick. Not a list of everything on the menu. A short list of what's yours. No more defaulting to the first thing you recognize. Drinks included. At a bar, a brewery or a coffee shop, Savya picks from the drinks list too — cocktails, beer, wine, coffee — and gives them their own section. Hand it a drinks-only menu and you get drinks only. It reads menus you put together, too: add-ons, swaps, build-your-own bowls and custom coffee orders. It also reads what a menu doesn't spell out. Soy sauce carries wheat. French vegetables are cooked in butter. Dressings hide fish sauce and sesame. Anything that breaks one of your rules is flagged with the ingredient that triggered it, so you know exactly what to ask the server. BUILT AROUND YOUR ALLERGIES AND YOUR DIET Savya treats an allergy as a hard line, not a preference. Set ten preset allergens — peanuts, tree nuts, dairy, eggs, gluten, shellfish, soy, fish, sesame and mollusks — or type in your own. Then thirty-three preferences: vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, halal, kosher, keto, low carb, high protein, low sodium, no pork, no red meat, no alcohol, no raw fish, mild only — and the ones that are about pleasure rather than rules, like loves spicy, big on cheese, plant-forward, adventurous eater, always the same thing. Your coffee and drink preferences live on their own, so how you take your coffee and what you like to drink shape every drinks list you scan. Gluten free, dairy free, nut free, celiac, halal, kosher, keto, vegan, pescatarian: whatever you set is checked against every dish on every restaurant menu you scan. A DINING JOURNAL THAT FILLS ITSELF Any menu you read can become an entry in your dining journal: what you ordered, a photo of each dish, a rating for the dish and a rating for the whole visit, and a note in your own words. Your dining history stays searchable, and private unless you decide otherwise. Keep a dining streak for the weeks you actually eat out. Collect fifty-three badges, including a passport with sixteen kitchens in it. Watch a Savya Score build out of three things that move at different speeds — rhythm, adventure and taste. And read your taste persona: a short character study written from the preferences you picked. It is the part people screenshot. THE PEOPLE YOU EAT WITH Follow friends and see where they have been and what they actually ordered — the dish, not just the star rating. Keep restaurant lists: want to go, been, or your own, each with its own map. Set each one public, followers only, or private. ANYWHERE YOU EAT See the restaurants near you that other members have been to, and what they ordered there. Distance reads in miles or kilometres, whichever your phone uses. Travel badges keep count of the cities and countries you have eaten in, so a week away leaves something behind besides photographs. BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD Savya takes about a minute with a menu. It is reading the whole thing. Savya does not provide medical or nutritional advice. Ingredient information is inferred from the menu and can be incomplete or wrong. Always confirm with the restaurant. 18+.
