Trace a tray.

Diet order → the library's substitution, with its review flag → the product on the invoice line → the tray card → the record. Every hop shows its status in words.

What we do in your facility.

Census and diet orders imported; your cycle menu mapped; textures, therapeutic diets and allergies stacked per resident.
Every accommodated item checked to its ingredient statement — inside your existing GPO and distributor relationships; the first thing we change is which products are bought, not who you buy from.
A parallel week before go-live; your dietary manager approves; the system does the re-entry.
Tray cards that carry the plate's identity to the table; cook sheets with the separation points marked.
Every decision leaves a record as it happens: which diet order, which substitution, who approved it, which product was on the invoice. Bundling those records for survey is in design — the first partner decides what goes in it.

Who decides.

MagicMenu screens and proposes; your dietary manager and your RD approve; the plan is locked. Your residents' information is handled by a HIPAA-trained team on HIPAA-eligible AWS services under a business associate agreement, in locked, auditable records.

Where our proof stands.

Here is exactly where each piece stands. The camp is in production since August 2, 2026; the clinical library is under review; the compliance pack is in design. We have not yet run a skilled-nursing kitchen — the first partner shapes it.

Clinical substitution library · RD review in progressIn testing

Thirty public-domain institutional base recipes at 100-serving scale, across eleven diet orders (renal, liberalized renal, cardiac/low sodium, low fat/low cholesterol, DASH, consistent carbohydrate, Crohn's/IBD, low FODMAP, GERD, calorie-controlled, high protein/high calorie), eight modifiers and every IDDSI level — each cell carrying its citation, its confidence and a flag when a dietitian still needs to check it. Being validated by a registered dietitian now.

Tools your team would use

The technology we would bring, each with the word for where it stands today — this page carries more validation and design tags than any other, and says so.

Never sold as available.

Design partnership.

Three to six months in your kitchen and dining room, scoped to your operation. We capture every person's needs, adapt your chef's own menu, match it to what your distributor actually delivers, and stand at the pass until your crew runs it without us. A registered dietitian joins the first conversation when diets are clinical.

These are paid engagements, scoped and priced to the size of your operation. You hear the number in the first conversation, with what it includes in writing.

Getting started.

We review how you work, agree on a practical first step, and measure the difference with your team.

Questions we hear.

We're in a no-fee GPO through our chain. Does this change anything?

No. We work inside your existing GPO and distributor relationships. The first thing we change is which products are bought, checked to their ingredient statements — not who you buy from.

Who produces the documentation for survey?

The kitchen does, by running: diet orders, served meals, approved substitutions and allergen traceability are recorded as they happen. Bundling them into a survey pack is in design; we will not show it as if it were built.

What's the lift on my dietary manager?

We import your census and diet orders, map your cycle, and run a parallel week before go-live. Your dietary manager approves; the system does the re-entry.

Can families see meals?

A family portal is in design. Until it exists, we do not sell it.

What does it cost?

A design partnership runs three to six months, scoped to your facility and priced to its size; you hear the number in the first conversation, with what it includes in writing. Afterwards the software stays at a low monthly cost per site, and MagicMenu earns when purchasing and settlement run through it — every fee disclosed.

Real voices.
