Pickie
Pickie is a restaurant discovery platform that shows real diner photos of specific dishes so users know exactly what they're getting before ordering.

Problem
Traditional restaurant listings rely on menus and generic descriptions, leaving diners to guess at portion sizes, presentation, and whether a dish will suit their personal tastes. This uncertainty often leads to disappointing orders, especially for users with dietary constraints or specific preferences.
Solution
Pickie provides a restaurant discovery platform that shows real diner photos of specific dishes, so users see exactly what a plate looks like before ordering. The app builds a taste profile from the user's reactions to dishes, then ranks every item on a menu against that profile to highlight the best matches. A Concierge feature answers natural-language questions—such as budget limits or spice restrictions—drawing on actual menus and diner photos, and then generates a concrete order plan with items and total cost. Users can browse and use the concierge without an account, while logging dishes and ranking preferences requires the app, where a personal food diary and social following features live.
Target Audience
Primary users are restaurant diners who want to reduce guesswork when ordering, particularly those with specific dietary preferences, budget constraints, or spice limitations.
