Yatoon Restaurant Menu & Online Ordering with AI Assistant

Deskripsi

Yatoon Restaurant Menu & Online Ordering helps restaurants turn a WordPress website into a clean mobile ordering experience without marketplace commissions.

It is built for small restaurants that want to own the customer relationship: publish a photo menu, accept pickup orders, print kitchen tickets, send confirmations, and start direct online ordering without marketplace commissions.

Unlike generic form or ecommerce plugins, Yatoon is organized around the daily restaurant workflow: menu, order, kitchen, customer status, and launch readiness.

WordPress 7.0 AI-ready ordering

Yatoon 3.0 works with the WordPress 7.0 AI Client when an AI provider is connected in WordPress Settings > Connectors. Customers can describe cravings, budget, group size, spice preference, or dietary notes, and AI suggests clickable dishes from the restaurant’s real menu.

  • AI Food Assistant – customers describe what they want and AI recommends matching dishes
  • Clickable recommendations – suggested dishes open the normal item modal so modifiers, quantity, stock, and checkout rules stay intact
  • No plugin-owned AI billing – AI provider/API keys are managed by WordPress Connectors; usage costs depend on the site owner’s chosen AI provider
  • Provider fallback – Yatoon prefers OpenAI/GPT first, then Google/Gemini, then Anthropic/Claude
  • Compatibility-first – WordPress 6.9 and older keep the regular ordering flow; AI generation requires WordPress 7.0 AI Client support
