# Qaema

> Qaema is a digital QR menu builder for cafés and restaurants in Saudi Arabia and the GCC: one bilingual Arabic and English menu with native right-to-left layout, calories, 14 allergens and the SFDA 2025 labels (caffeine, high-salt icon, walking time, daily intake), free for one venue with up to 50 items.

Qaema (قائمة, "menu" in Arabic) is made by dzzz.ai. Owners publish one menu that guests open from a table QR code, read in Arabic or English, filter by allergen, and install on their phone. Arabic is first-class on every plan, not an add-on.

## Who it is for

- Cafés and restaurants in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman that need an Arabic and English menu.
- Saudi venues that must show calories and the SFDA labels required on menus from 1 July 2025 (caffeine, high-salt warning, physical-activity equivalent).
- Owners who want to start free and move an existing menu across in minutes: paste a link to a current online menu, drop a spreadsheet, or start blank, and edit before creating an account.

## What it does

- Bilingual Arabic/English menu with native right-to-left layout, six templates and the owner's brand colours and fonts
- Calories, 14 allergens with "may contain", a guest allergen filter, caffeine per size, high-salt icon, walking minutes, daily-intake guide
- Sold-out toggles that switch back on by themselves; undo for every change
- Table, pickup and delivery QR codes in a branded QR studio; WhatsApp pickup orders on Pro
- Analytics on every plan: scans, popular items, languages
- AI-ready: owners can update the menu from Claude or ChatGPT through Qaema's MCP server (https://mcp.qaema.ai), and every published menu has its own llms.txt and read-only MCP server for guests' assistants
- Export any time as schema.org JSON-LD or CSV
