Step 1

Set your profile

Add your allergies, intolerances, dietary preferences, faith-based requirements, and health goals. We'll remember everything, so you never have to start from scratch again.

Step 2

Analyse any menu

Scan any menu. Point your camera at a printed menu, handwritten special, or QR code. Eatova reads every dish and compares it against your profile in seconds, even in another language.

Eatova results — every dish sorted safe, ask or avoid, with reasoning

Step 3

Eat with confidence

Every recommendation comes with a clear explanation. See the ingredients, allergens, preparation risks, and suggested adaptations before you order.

Built for everyone with dietary needs

Whether you're managing a life-threatening allergy, following a religious diet, working toward a health goal, or simply avoiding certain foods, Eatova helps you answer the same question every time you open a menu: What can I eat here?

We understand food, not just menus.

Menus rarely tell the whole story. Caesar salad doesn't mention anchovies. Tempura doesn't always mention shared fryer oil. Eatova combines AI with a curated food database to identify hidden ingredients, preparation methods, cross-contact risks, and allergens that simple text searches miss.

Everyone deserves to enjoy eating out.

If ordering at a restaurant feels more stressful than it should, you're not imagining it. Millions of people face the same challenge every day.

4 in 5 say it affects how they live and socialise World Allergy Org, 2025

Eatova started during a family holiday in Bali. Between us, we were managing more than 10 allergies and dietary restrictions. Every meal meant long conversations with the staff, repeated trips to the kitchen, and hoping our requests survived the language barrier. Sometimes they didn't, and we experienced the kind of reactions that come from a simple misunderstanding. We hated feeling like the difficult table, holding everyone up while trying to stay safe. We believe food should bring people together, not make anyone feel like a burden. That's why we built Eatova, so people can spend less time explaining their needs and more time enjoying the meal.

"There has to be a better way. And we created it."
