Importing your catalog
Bulk import from a spreadsheet, or extract items from photos.
Two ways in
Both live at Catalog → Add item → Import, on separate tabs. Either way you get a review step before anything is saved, so nothing lands in your catalog without you seeing it first.
Spreadsheet import
- Open the CSV / Spreadsheet tab and download the example file
- Fill in your items. Only two columns are required:
- name — required
- price — required
- description — worth filling in; it's what the assistant answers from
- category — the section name. Sections that don't exist yet are created for you.
- tags — comma-separated
- externalLinkUrl and externalLinkLabel — for items that send customers elsewhere rather than into a cart
- Save as CSV and upload it
- Review what was read, fix anything wrong, and confirm
Photo import
Restaurants can photograph a printed menu and have the items extracted automatically — names, prices, descriptions and sections all at once.
- Photograph each page, straight-on and in good light
- Open the AI Image Import tab
- Upload one or more photos (JPEG, PNG or WebP, up to 4MB each)
- Wait while the items are extracted
- Review and edit before confirming
💡 Pro tip
Go through the review step properly — prices and section names are where extraction slips most often, and a wrong price goes straight to a customer.
