Upload the recipes you already have.

Drop in your existing PDFs, documents, spreadsheets, photos, and screenshots. Havenue reads them and builds a clean digital recipe database, with allergens, costs, and review notes attached.

AI import takes the recipes and menus your team has already written, in whatever shape they arrived in, and turns them into a clean digital library your kitchen can rely on. Each ingredient is tagged with the right allergens, each recipe gets a cost, and nothing is retyped.

The problem this solves

Most venues already have hundreds of recipes written down somewhere: a chef's notebook, an old Word file, a supplier set menu, a printed PDF. Getting them into a working system used to mean weeks of retyping and a steady stream of mistakes. AI import removes that step.

How it works

  1. Drop in your files: PDFs, Word documents, Excel and CSV files, photos, and screenshots all upload together.
  2. Havenue reads each file: Multi-file uploads run in parallel, so a problem with one file never holds up the rest.
  3. Review with confidence: Every extracted recipe shows where it came from, with a short snippet and a confidence score, so you publish only what looks right.
  4. Publish to your library: Approved recipes land in the Menu Library with allergens, dietaries, and costs already attached.

What you get

  • Days of typing in a coffee break: Three weeks of manual data entry now takes an afternoon, not a quarter.
  • Allergens tagged for you: Standard 14 allergens applied automatically; overrides are tracked so the kitchen sees the change.
  • Source you can trace: Every recipe links back to the file, page, and snippet it came from, so reviewing is a glance, not an investigation.
  • Set menus split for review: When a single file contains several set menus, Havenue detects it and offers a manual review screen before anything goes live.

Who this is for

  • Head Chef
  • Sous Chef
  • F&B Operations

What Havenue is

Havenue is the AI-native dietary and catering management software for hospitality: catering companies, hotels, venues, restaurants and private dining.

It automates the back-of-house behind event catering, from the enquiry to the kitchen pass to the invoice. The Dietary & Catering Engine checks every dish against every guest's requirements and finds safe replacement dishes from the operator's own recipes, for chef sign-off. Around it sit an advanced, automated event CRM with a live pipeline, a smart inventory and stock system with every allergen tagged from the ingredients themselves, recipe and menu costing with live cost per head and GP%, ordering and supplier management, invoicing, billing and client payments, generated BEOs and allergen matrices, reporting, and the full platform in a mobile browser. One integrated platform, one event record.
