To reach your customers, you often pay third-party services
- TheFork and other portals bring you a customer only once, push heavy discounts and often take a commission on each one.
- That customer stays in their database, not yours, and tomorrow they set the rules for reaching them.
- And digital menus like MenuDigitale, Qodeup, Dishcovery or BuonMenu? The customer opens a page, reads the menu and closes it. Nothing of your place stays on their phone: not your icon, not a reason to come back to you.
- Often the first logo the customer sees is theirs, not yours. And once the page is closed, there’s no trace of you left.
- People who only want the discount eat at a discount and never come back. And the customers who liked you, who’d happily come back? You have no direct way to reach them. With Telaio you do: with an app that’s yours alone.
It’s not a menu. It’s your app for your customers.
A branded app for restaurant owners, with your name, your colours, your icon. The customer installs it by scanning the QR. The app they download is your venue, right there on their phone.
- The customer never sees "Telaio": the icon, name and logo are yours.
- Create an event or a special night in seconds, and it appears on the customer's phone right away.
- Add a discount or an offer with a single tap and announce it with a notification, on the day and at the time you choose.
- Change menus, photos, texts, contacts and offers yourself, whenever you like.
No App Store, no signup.
The customer scans a QR and ten seconds later has it, with your venue’s icon. No personal data: no name, email or phone. No account, nothing to download.
On the table
The table card: while they wait for their food, the phone is already in their hand.
At the counter
The counter card, for whoever has a coffee standing up or is waiting to pay.
With the bill
The slip you leave with the bill: the QR goes home with them.
Scan it. Ten seconds later it's in your hand.
Nothing to download, no signup: point your phone at the QR and open a restaurant demo. Then picture it with your name on it.
Or open the demo from here
Not the usual black square. The QR becomes yours too.
Your logo in the middle + your venue’s colour. On the table card and on the slip you leave with the bill, it’s clearly about your place before the customer even scans it.
- The app prepares it by itself, using your logo, your colours and your details. You don’t have to design anything, and there’s no need to call a designer if you change your details. The app updates it by itself.
- We give it to you in two forms: the PDF a print shop can print directly, and an A4 sheet with crop marks, if you’d rather print it at home and cut it out yourself.
- It stays valid for ever. Change the menu, the prices, the photos and the offers whenever you like: the QR is always the same, and what you’ve already printed never dies.
Pane & VinoScan it: it opens the restaurant demo.
Hotel Cesare AugustoA hotel, another colour, same style.
It opens with a QR, like a menu. But then it stays.
Whoever scans it doesn’t open a page that then closes, as happens with every digital menu: your app gets installed, with your name and your logo, and it stays on their phone even after they’ve left. From then on it’s your direct line to them.
- The menu with allergens and diets, the wine list, the drink list. Change a price and the customer sees it straight away, without reprinting anything.
- The offers the customer actually uses: they redeem them by showing them to your staff, without leaving a name or an email. No signup. Ever. And each time, points go up on their Loyalty Card, which is only valid with you.
- The evenings and events you create yourself, from your phone, in a minute, and send out with an immediate or scheduled notification.
- Notifications: you decide what to say and when, and the message arrives with your venue’s name, even on a locked phone.
- The customer reads in their phone’s language: seven languages besides Italian. To translate your content you have a direct link to Google Translate, free. Whatever you don’t translate stays in Italian, and doesn’t disappear.
No commission. Ever. On any customer.
The Telaio app vs the middlemen
| Telaio | TheFork & co. | |
|---|---|---|
| Who owns the app? | ✓ Yours | ✗ Theirs |
| Commissions? | ✓ Zero | ✗ On every customer |
| Who do the customers belong to? | ✓ Yours | ✗ Theirs |
| Customer data? | ✓ We don’t collect them | ✗ Profiled |
| Your offers on their phone? | ✓ Yes, with a notification | ✗ No |
| Scheduled notifications? | ✓ You choose the day and time | ✗ No |
| Lock-in? | ✓ None. Cancel whenever you like, free. | ✗ Long contracts |
A menu gets forgotten. Your app stays.
For MenuDigitale, Qodeup, Dishcovery or BuonMenu the QR menu is everything. For us it’s one of many things: you create as many menus as you like (lunch, dinner, events) and in the Archive you find the dishes and drinks you’ve already written. A new menu comes together in a few minutes, without rewriting anything.
| Your Telaio app | QR menu services | |
|---|---|---|
| What stays on the phone? | ✓ Your app, with your icon and all the content you’ve added | ✗ A page that closes, at most with their icon |
| Notifications to the phone? | ✓ Yes, and they arrive with your name | ✗ Usually not. The only one that sends them uses its own name, not yours |
| Offers the customer can use? | ✓ Yes, and they earn them points | ✗ No |
| The brand they see? | ✓ Yours. Always, and only yours. | ✗ Theirs |
It opens even without a connection.
A web page needs the network every time it opens. Your app doesn’t: once the customer has it on their phone, the menu and the information are already inside.
- In a basement dining room, in a tavern, in a lift, in the middle of two hundred people all using their phones: they open it and read it anyway.
- That’s the moment when a page that has to load leaves the customer staring at a spinning icon, while the waiter stands there waiting.
- And as soon as the signal is back it updates itself: if you changed a price half an hour ago, they already find the new one.
It’s the difference between an app that belongs to the customer and a web page that only works when there’s signal.
Two different jobs. They coexist just fine.
If you already have a QR for paying the bill (at the table or at the till), keep it: it does a different and useful job. We don’t touch payments or the till. Telaio is there to make the customer come back, and to keep them loyal.
The bill QR
Works while the customer is seated. It's there to get you paid faster.
The Telaio QR
Works as they’re leaving: you say goodbye and hand them the little card with your logo and the QR. Your venue stays on their phone, and from there your offers, events and evenings reach them.
A simple app for restaurants. And it really works.
Offers and special dishes
"Thursday aperitivo: spritz + board for €10."
Gift, don't discount
A coffee, a glass of the house wine. It costs you a few cents, but the customer remembers it.
Bring customers back
"Come back within 7 days and dessert is on us." The real money is made with the people who come back.
Automatic "Welcome" offer
Whoever opens the app for the first time finds a little gift: "Welcome! Your first coffee is on us."
Automatic "Come back and see us" offer
After the first visit, the app offers them a reason to come back, all by itself. You choose what to offer and when: straight away, after a day or after a week.
Loyalty Card
The restaurant loyalty app that rewards those who come back: one point for every offer or event redeemed, and at the finish line the prize you choose.
Scheduled notifications
You publish the offer on Tuesday evening and decide the notification goes out on Thursday at 6 pm. It goes out by itself, even with your phone switched off.
Your statistics
See what works: how many people have downloaded the app, how many used each offer, on which day and at what time, from which phone, in which language and much more.
You know how it is going. No guessing.
Not one number: separate sections, one under the other, updated live on your phone. At the top you pick the period: the last 30 days or the last 12 months.
Your customers
How many phones carry your app, how many get your notifications, how many arrived this week. And the languages they actually speak, which are not always the ones you expect.
And they land like this.
You write it from your phone whenever you like, or load it on Tuesday and it goes out by itself on Thursday at 6 pm. It arrives with your venue’s name and icon, with no middleman in between.
- Even on a locked phone.
- Even with your own phone switched off: it goes out by itself.
- No percentage, on any message.
The control panel? Your phone.
No computer, no management software, no phone calls to the agency or the graphic designer: an app just for you. The menu, the offers, the events, the notifications, the free tables: you run it all from there, even from behind the counter.
- Change a price while you're at the counter.
- Publish Thursday's offer in thirty seconds.
- Closures, opening hours, photos and free tables: all in your pocket.
And you run it from here.
Scroll ‹ › and tap a screen to see it large.
The app writes the post. You only choose where it goes.
You have already written the evening, already uploaded the photo, already set the price. So why type it all again inside Instagram, and then again inside Facebook? Tap Share at the foot of the card and the post is ready, with the photograph already attached.
- One tap, on the card you have just filled in. The button sits at the foot of every event, offer, special and dish on the menu. The title, the date written out in full, your own words, the price and the deal reserved for people with the app: the post assembles itself out of what was already there.
- You see it before it leaves. The text and the photograph appear in front of you, and you can correct the text right there: what goes out is what you read.
- The photo is the one your customer sees, taken from the card without hunting for it. And if the phone cannot fetch it, it says so, instead of quietly publishing a post with no picture.
- Then your phone's own share menu opens and you pick: Instagram, Facebook, X, WhatsApp, or any other app you have installed.
- You paste the caption yourself, and that’s their rule, not ours. Instagram and Facebook don’t let an app write the caption for you: it applies to everyone, even the services that charge you for it. That’s why the text also lands on your clipboard: press and hold the field and tap Paste.
No agency, no publishing software, no extra cost: the service is included in your subscription.
Want to try the Manager too, the app you run everything from?
We'll show you live, on your phone. No strings attached.
One app that works for you
Table availability
The customer sees the days and seatings with free places, and books as always: with a call or a message.
Print-ready materials
The table card (A6), the counter card (A5), business cards and the QR ready for the print shop: with your logo and your colours.
Allergens & diets
The 14 allergens required by law, and filters for the customer. With the printable table ready as a PDF, updated according to your choices.
Nine menu styles
Classic, Elegant, Chalkboard, Bistro, Wine bar and four more: you pick it in the Manager and change it whenever you like. And if you want one that is yours alone, we design it for you.
Extra pages
The menu is not everything: the business lunch, catering, the room for parties. We add every extra page for you, named as you like.
- Customers find it in the app’s «More» menu, and the first one in the bottom bar too.
- Inside go text, photos and prices, and a PDF or photo to open: the evening’s programme, the flyer.
Recommended by us
Your app has a page with the places you recommend to your customers: a restaurant, a winery, a shop, an outing. Up to three on the Home too.
- Venues on Telaio are already there, nearest first: one tap and they are on your list. A place that is not on Telaio you add yourself, with a photo, text and address.
- Other Telaio venues can recommend you too: you can return the favour, and prepare an offer just for people who come from them.
- You see how many people open each card. It is included in the fee, and if you would rather not appear in other apps, you switch it off.
Need help?
If you get stuck, we are one tap away in the Manager.
- You message us on WhatsApp, with your question already written.
- Or you book a half-hour video call with us, whenever it suits you.
- And next to every panel you can have the «?» with the step-by-step guide.
Every venue gets its own app. Truly its own.
Underneath is the same proven engine. On top, a tailor-made outfit: name, icon, colours and photos are the venue’s own.
Two roads. You choose.
There isn’t one single offer: you can have it today and fill it in at your own pace, or have it delivered already complete with all the content.
You fill it in
We hand you the app already built, with every area and sub-area in place and sample content to replace. You see the finished shape immediately.
Then you fill it in when you like, from your phone. For people who have the time, and for people who want to touch it before they trust it.
We fill it in
You send us your menu (a photo, a PDF or the link to your website) and we build it, with your dishes, your prices and your photos. You don’t write a word.
It’s the road for anyone with a long menu and no wish to type it in by hand. We work on it for hours, which is why it isn’t included in the subscription.
Not the subscription: that one is identical for everyone. The loading, though, depends on how many dishes you have and how many menus you need (lunch, dinner, wine list): a pizzeria with a single page and a restaurant with three menus are not the same job. We look at your menu together and give you the figure before we start: fixed, agreed, no surprises at the end.
One thing said up front rather than afterwards: we carry the content over exactly as it stands on your menu. We don’t correct it and we don’t rewrite it. If you find a mistake later we’ll fix it, and that’s counted separately.
One clear price. All included.
Always the same, whether you have ten customers or a thousand. No percentage on what they spend with you.
- App creation and personalisation (logo, colours).
- Unlimited menus, with the Archive of dishes, drinks and offers.
- Offers, specials and automatic offers.
- Loyalty Card.
- Notifications, scheduled ones too.
- Filters for allergens (the 14 required by law) and diets.
- Availability, seatings and holidays.
- Print materials carrying your logo, in two versions: the file a print shop accepts as it is, and an A4 sheet with crop marks. Print them, cut them, and you are up and running the same day.
- Statistics updated in real time.
- Installation and going live.
- Support: send us a message, or book a video call with us from the Manager.
- Free cancellation whenever you want, with one click in your Manager, or message us and we stop the renewal for you.
No activation fee: your app online with your name and your colours, every area in place and the table QR codes.
And you’re never on your own: there’s a real person on the other end, in English.
No percentage on your customers. Ever. Start and cancel whenever you like, with no multi-year contract and no penalty.
And now your app gets found on Google.
You already keep the app up to date yourself, from your phone. Those same words become your pages on Google, and they update themselves. You never write anything twice.
- Your app’s pages reach Google on their own, in the languages you wrote them in.
- Address and phone number reach Google exactly as Google wants them, taken from your venue’s details: the ones you keep up to date in the Manager, not those of whoever pays the subscription.
- The QR on the table works just as before. There are two ways into the app, the QR and Google, and you switch the second one on and off whenever you like.
You’ve already written the words
You put the name, the description and the photos in your app yourself. Those same words become the page. You never write anything twice, and you don’t pay anyone to rewrite it.
It updates itself
You change the venue’s description from your phone and the page changes with it. No agency to call, no quote just to move a line.
Your details, not a directory’s
Address and phone number reach Google exactly as Google wants them, taken from your venue’s details: the ones you keep up to date, not the ones stuck for three years on some portal.
Your own page, not a portal’s
Someone searching for you opens a page with your dishes, your photos and your colours, and a big button to open the app. Not a list where you are fourth, between two competitors paying to sit above you.
On your own domain, if you want it
With your own address (app.yourvenue.com, €100 one-off) anyone arriving from Google reads your venue’s name and nothing else. Without it, everything works the same way on our address.
You switch Google SEO on and off
It starts switched off. You switch it on and off whenever you like: just tell us. It is one more door that you open, not something you are stuck with.
The QR can show your domain.
Your app starts out on an address of ours, yourvenue.studiocorocher.com. For €100 one-off we move it to yours: app.yourvenue.com. Whoever scans the QR reads your venue’s name, and ours doesn’t appear anywhere. The app stays exactly the same: only the address changes.
- All it takes is adding one line to your domain’s settings (a DNS record). Your website and your email aren’t touched and nothing stops, not even for a minute. We send whoever manages your domain the exact line to add: two minutes of work.
- The old address stays live for ever. Business cards and the table and counter cards already printed keep working: no reprint, no dead QR code.
- We request the security certificate (the padlock in the browser bar) and we renew it. You have nothing to maintain and nothing that expires on you in a year.
- If you don’t know where to start, we take care of it: we talk directly to whoever manages your domain. That’s exactly what the €100 is for.
Bring a colleague, get a month free every year
Every Telaio client gets a personal code, from day one. Send it to a colleague with one tap on WhatsApp:
- Your colleague joins with your code on the founders’ terms (a reserved price + 1 month free)
- You get one free month every year, as long as they stay subscribed
- Up to twelve free months a year
In 30 seconds you’ll know its real impact.
Put your numbers in and watch your estimated takings build line by line. The numbers stay on this page: only you can see them, and they aren’t saved.
At the end you see how much Telaio really weighs on your takings, and how little it takes to pay for it.
What everyone asks
Do customers have to download an app from a store?
No. They scan the QR, follow the on-screen steps, and in a few seconds the app is on their phone, with your icon. No App Store, no account, no password.
Who already uses it?
Locanda Al Capriolo, in Farra d’Alpago, IlCortivo, in Vittorio Veneto, and Area Zenith, in Bibione: an app for restaurants with their own name, on their customers’ phones.
Does it work for a pub or a café?
Yes. A pub or a café uses the bar template, with its drinks list; a pizzeria uses the restaurant one, with its menu. It works as a pub loyalty app or a café loyalty app in the same way: every offer used earns a point on the Loyalty Card. And if you have both, restaurant and bar live in the same app.
Do I need a new QR when I change the menu?
No. With a QR code menu from Telaio the QR stays the same forever: change your digital menu, prices and photos whenever you like, and the customer sees the changes straight away.
Who updates the menu, photos and offers?
You do, from your phone, with your management app. And if you don’t have the time or the inclination, we take care of it: it’s separate work, for a figure agreed beforehand.
How do messages reach my customers?
As a notification on their phone, with your venue’s name, to whoever has installed the app and said yes to notifications. You send it straight away or schedule it for the day and time you want, even together with an event or an offer.
Do you collect my customers' data?
No. No signup and no personal data: no name, email or phone. Your customers stay yours, and don’t end up in somebody else’s database.
Can I cancel whenever I want?
Yes. Cancelling is free and carries no penalty: cancel with one click in your Manager, or message us and we stop the renewal for you. You owe nothing. No multi-year contract and no minimum term.
What happens to my customers if I cancel?
Until the end of the period you’ve already paid for, nothing: the app stays on. Then it switches off, and whoever opens it reads “This app is no longer available.” For 30 days your content and your customers’ loyalty cards stay safe, in case you change your mind; after that they are permanently deleted.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes, on both, and on a computer too. It doesn’t go through the app stores, so it updates itself, for everyone, straight away.
How much does it cost? Are there commissions or extra costs?
€59 a month, or €41 a month on the 12-month plan. One fixed fee and that’s it: offers, notifications, Loyalty Card and menus are all included. No percentage and no hidden costs. The Founder offer is still available (get in touch for details).
How does the Loyalty Card work?
Every offer the customer uses from the app earns them a point: they use it in front of your staff and the point arrives automatically. No stamps and no paper cards. You decide the rewards, and the points they take, in the Manager app; after the last reward the card resets and starts again. It works with the app installed, with no name or email. A restaurant loyalty card the customer can’t lose: it lives on their phone.
I already have a QR for paying at the table. Do I still need this?
Yes: they do two different jobs and coexist just fine. That QR gets you paid faster; Telaio makes the customer come back. We never touch payments or your till. And the moment is different: the bill QR works while the customer is seated; ours works as they leave: you say goodbye, hand them the little card with your logo, and your venue stays on their phone.
Do I have to leave TheFork?
No. Telaio isn’t a booking portal and doesn’t ask you to give anything up: keep TheFork for the people who find you there. What changes is afterwards: whoever has your app calls you with one tap, directly, with no commission to anyone. Your customers stay yours, not a third party’s like TheFork.
What about allergens? And languages?
They’re there: the 14 allergens required by law and the diets (vegan, vegetarian), with filters for the customer. And the app speaks eight languages (Italian, English, German, French, Spanish, Dutch, Chinese and Japanese): it switches itself to the language of the customer’s phone. IMPORTANT: your dishes (and your content in general) read in the languages you write them in. Where a translation is missing, the English shows, and if that’s missing too, the Italian.
Your next stepFrom today, the app is yours.
And your customers stay yours.
