Roadmap

Where we came from, what we're building, what's next.

Genu's shipped milestones, the work in progress and the plan for the coming quarters.

In progress

Work under way right now, rolling out in stages.

  • Images and PDFs in the assistant

    Attach an invoice, receipt or menu photo and ask about it. Built, rolling out in stages.

  • Automatic supplier invoice reading

    An invoice photo becomes an expense entry with totals, VAT and line items.

  • Day-end on the offline cashier

    Taking the Z report even during an outage.

Planned

Target periods show the order; priorities are updated with feedback from venues.

  1. Q4 2026

    Document AI for menus and invoices

    A dedicated document model that reads price columns, modifier trees and allergen tables, cutting onboarding to minutes.

  2. Q1 2027

    Personalised recommendations

    Cross-sell suggestions by basket, time of day and order history; menu-view and cart events are already collected.

  3. Q1 2027

    Demand and stock forecasting

    Prep and purchasing suggestions from day-by-hour sales history and recipe data.

  4. Q1 2027

    Day-end anomaly alerts

    Flagging unusual patterns in voids, comps, discounts and cash differences.

  5. Q2 2027

    Voice assistant

    Hands-free queries for kitchen and floor staff; a spoken menu for guests.

  6. Q2 2027

    Fiscal registers, card terminals and delivery platforms

    Connecting payment and order channels directly to the tab.

  7. 2027

      Genu's predecessor. Menu, ordering and service flows were studied with live cafés and restaurants.

How we build

  • Frequent, public releases

    Every release is written up in the changelog; what changed and when is public.

  • Tests gate every release

    Deterministic simulation tests for money math and the offline cashier; nothing ships until they pass.

  • Staged rollout

    The desktop agent ships to a test channel first, then a share of venues, then everyone.

  • Audit trail and privacy

    Cashier, menu and staff actions are written to an audit log; personal-data retention is managed in one place.
