The app is a cool idea, however, I’m curious how you guys plan on managing the standardization across menu items. Replicating a single restaurant menu is an incredibly complicated problem given the amount of customization, but you also need to account for the variability of the same menu across multiple services.

This is a really good insight and a part of the delivery experience I think could be greatly improved. Different services offer surprisingly different versions of the same menu, and customers are unaware there might be better selection on a different website.
