    this is where you keep the IP rights and sell it to every restaurant in town and beyond as a subscription model for 5$ a month and multiply it by thousands of restaurants if not all in all the countries that speak that specific language and then add new languages after that

    Noise filtered STT, fixed( mounted on table) preconfigured device, bulk order and reordering, dual print is just destinations to printout at!

    Likely better to wire into existing order handling aka digital order collection system used by waiter is a good start!

    @jestdotty $5 a month? You can easily get $200 a month for with a $50 starter plan with limited number of orders and an enterprise plan negotiated case by case. That’s why b2b is so much more worth it.

    @donkulator But what about the cute waitress? But in NL they sorted that type of ordering ages ago, there is just a wall with pre-made meals, and you pay and take it out.

    Will make it with n8n and Odoo just for fun, this seems like a nice hobby project.

    Speech to text with noise is not a problem.

    Speech to text with a bunch of overlapping voices is a massive issue, believe me.

    Typical brainless client. "If I managed to do it, I would definitely start a business myself rather than handing it over to you, dumbass."

    I know the experience. There are clients out there who talked about making facebook clone or uber clone.

    @Tounai honda worked on that ages ago with asimo. The basic idea is source Localisation in 3d space and then process each one after another!
