The AI-native training platform for restaurant groups
Crew scan a QR and are training in seconds — no passwords, no app to install. And when the menu changes, the training updates itself: tell PlateSpec what changed, approve the ticket, and every location's crew is current before pre-shift.

Prices change, items get 86'd, specs get tweaked — and the training deck from March is still teaching all of it wrong.
When the official material is stale, crew train each other. Now every location does it a little differently, and consistency dies quietly.
The first sign of a training gap shouldn't be a review that says the server didn't know the menu. By then it already cost you.

Every group in this business hires constantly — the best-run ones too. Between recruiting, paperwork, and the weeks before someone is actually useful, a typical 10-location group spends around $811,800 a year on it. Drag four sliders and see your number.
In plain English, like you'd tell your KM: "86 the Smokehouse Burger, add the Nashville Hot Chicken at $16.95." No hunting through courses, no re-uploading decks. The AI reads the whole course and finds each lesson, card, and quiz question the change touches — including rewriting the quiz questions that mention it.
Changes come back as a kitchen ticket you can read in ten seconds — red for what's removed, green for what's added, amber for what's edited. Nothing goes live until a manager approves it. You stay in charge; the AI just does the typing.
One tap pushes the updated training to every location at once. Crew see the new material on their phones, take the 60-second quiz, and your Command board shows completion move location by location — live, before the shift starts.
Crew scan the QR at the host stand, enter an emailed 6-digit code once, and stay signed in. No IT tickets, no forgotten passwords, nothing to install.
Publish once — every course auto-translates to Spanish. Crew flip languages with one tap.
See every location's training completion in real time. Spot the store that's behind before it becomes the store with the problem.
Full-screen training cards built for one thumb on a cheap Android during a ten-minute break — not a desktop course from 2009.
Import people and course content from legacy systems like TalentLMS. Convert it once, never look back.
Every report and roster exports to CSV, included. A tamper-proof audit log records every completion. No feature ransom, ever.
PlateSpec was started by restaurant operators, not a software company hunting for a vertical. That's why the language is 86'd and fire — not “content modules” — and why the rules are simple: the quote is the bill (no per-feature upsells, no paywalled reports), pages load in under two seconds, and no screen needs a tutorial. Training software should feel like a sharp knife, not a filing cabinet.
Unlimited staff. Every feature. No setup fee, no per-seat math, no quote to chase.
Cancel any time, in one click, and take a full export with you.
PlateSpec is an AI-native training platform (LMS) built for restaurant groups with more than one location. Instead of hunting through slides and quiz questions by hand, you tell PlateSpec what changed — "86 the Smokehouse Burger, add the Nashville Hot Chicken at $16.95" — and the AI finds every affected lesson and quiz, stages the edits as a reviewable ticket, and on your approval pushes the updated training to every location at once.
Traditional LMS tools store training; you still rewrite it by hand every time the menu, price, or procedure changes — so it goes stale. PlateSpec maintains training. One sentence about what changed rewrites every lesson and quiz question it touches, and pushes it to every location at once. It was built by restaurant operators, uses restaurant language (86'd, fire, pre-shift), and has no corporate-LMS baggage like SCORM players or seat-time requirements.
No. Crew scan a QR code at the restaurant, type their email, and enter a 6-digit code — that's the whole login. No passwords ever, nothing to install, and they stay signed in on their phone afterward. Training opens as full-screen cards designed for a phone in one hand during a break.
Yes. Every course is auto-translated into Spanish when you publish it, and crew members can flip languages with one tap. Managers write once; every crew member reads in the language they're fastest in.
Yes. PlateSpec imports your people and course content from legacy systems like TalentLMS, and your data stays yours: every report and roster exports to CSV, included, with no paywall on your own records.
A group can be live the same day. We load your locations and current training, you print a QR code per restaurant, and crew start completing courses that shift. There is no onboarding curriculum for the software itself — if a screen needs a tutorial, we consider the screen broken.
15 minutes, no slide deck. Bring a real menu change and watch PlateSpec update the training in front of you. If you like it, your crew can be training the same day.
