There are numerous restaurant recommendation apps now in the market, with many doing quite well; however, few offer niche gourmet recommendations. Korean startup Mealgeneration Inc. wants to bring uniqueness to the restaurant recommendation app market with its AI gourmet curating app. Gourmet Era app helps food connoisseurs choose the best restaurant based on their taste and gives small businesses monetizing opportunities from reviews.

Rewards for food lovers & restaurant owners

Gourmet Era/Age of Gourmet app recommends restaurants and menus based on expected ratings. Existing restaurant recommendation apps and delivery service apps provide information about restaurants and services for only one primary user. This app offers a service that helps satisfactory gourmet experiences with recommendations and benefits that analyze the shared tastes of two or more people. The app recommends a group of restaurants based on variety of tastes, and the user can then choose, taste and post reviews. The users can avail of rewards when the order is placed with reviews.

Gourmet Era is also a public delivery app that makes money for small business owners, who can enjoy 0% commission and investment returns by accumulating the entire commission in their own securities account. When sales are generated through reviews on the app, the businesses also get rewards, which are credited to their securities account on the platform

Gourmet Era is a member of the Seoul Zero Delivery Union, and the app is automatically linked to the delivery services. The business owners don’t have to worry about delivery if they use the app’s affiliated delivery services.  Mealgeneration Inc. is a spin off from Koscom, a leading financial IT company in Korea. By applying a personalized curation model to restaurant recommendations, the startup wants to create a gourmet environment that can compete only with taste, without advertising reviews.
