Choose Kodo if…
You want an AI to draft a menu layout for you to print or post.
Choose spotmymenu if…
You want a real mobile menu with your actual dishes, prices and photos that you keep up to date, with insights on what guests view.
Or use both
Many restaurants use both: design a printed menu or poster in a design tool, and put a spotmymenu QR code on the table so guests always get the live, up-to-date menu on their phone.
