(The brief)
Menus in Dubai are long, mixed-language and full of things some people cannot eat. Hanee learns a person's taste, allergies, diet, budget and distance once, then answers the only question that matters at the table: what should I order here?
The rule we built everything around is that a recommendation must never contradict an allergy or a diet. That means real menu data, checked dish by dish, and a ranking system that filters first and charms second.
Onboarding can be done by tapping, by typing, or by simply talking to it, in English or Arabic.
(What we built)
The iOS and Android app, designed and built for release on the App Store and Google Play.
Four ways in: pick the best dish at this restaurant (by name, menu photo, QR or link), find a craving nearby, discover, or find a restaurant.
A live voice interviewer for onboarding, in English and Arabic.
A restaurant and menu database covering Dubai, with location search, and hand-checked menus.
hanee.ae, a bilingual public guide to restaurants and menus, served from the edge.
