And yeah, like you mentioned, I diagnosed celiac when I was 10 years old and so have a lot of personal experience navigating dining out of home and ordering online while needing to know what's in my food.

And just over a long period of time, got more and more frustrated with how difficult it was to get that information and mistakes and inaccuracies and decided to try and do something about it.

Bloomberg Tech

And so what we do is we help restaurants by ingesting their menu information.

Yeah, it's a great question.

If there's ever a scenario where it isn't sure, it will tag in the back end for us that there's uncertainty and our dietician team will come in over the top and do QA and manually intervene.

And as they make inputs into the system, the LLM learns and gets smarter and smarter over time.

From a legal liability standpoint, we would argue that not having any documentation on allergens is a much higher risk.
