Hey Product Hunt! 👋
My 3 university friends and I built Hey Menu while traveling together, solving a problem we faced constantly - not understanding restaurant menus when exploring new countries or trying ethnic restaurants.
The "aha moment" came when we were in a Japanese restaurant, struggling with the menu, and realized our phones' cameras + AI could solve this instantly. But we wanted more than just translation - we wanted to know if dishes fit our dietary needs, their nutritional content, and what they actually looked like.
What makes Hey Menu special:
🎯 It's not just translation - It understands context. When you search "no red meat," it knows to highlight vegetarian and seafood options.
🧠 AI that actually helps - Ask natural questions like "what's good for someone on a diet?" or "any gluten-free options?" and get smart recommendations.
🌍 Built for real-world use - Supports 12+ languages and covers cuisines from around the world.
Technical bits for fellow makers:
Built with React Native for cross-platform support, using advanced OCR for menu scanning and GPT-5 for intelligent food understanding. The nutrition database covers thousands of dishes across multiple cuisines.
We'd love your feedback! What features would make this even more useful for your dining adventures?
Happy to answer any questions about the tech stack, business model, or our journey building this as a team of friends!
Great idea, more languages coming in the future? This might be very useful outside of the most common ones so it might make sense to get many of the "popular destination/uncommon language" ones.
