Kitch Social — design studio, AI captions, and automatic scheduling

Kitch Social is live. Build on-brand post graphics in the Design Studio, let the AI write platform-specific captions, and schedule posts to Instagram and Facebook to go out automatically — no manual posting, no social media manager. TikTok publishing is in platform review and coming soon.

What's included:

  • Design Studio — on-brand post templates pre-loaded with your restaurant's colours and typeface. Upload your photo, fill in headline and detail, done.
  • AI caption writer — describe the post in one line ("lamb special, limited plates, Friday only") and the AI writes a caption tuned to the platform's length and tone.
  • Visual scheduler — calendar view of upcoming posts across all connected platforms.
  • Auto-publish cron — Kitch checks for due posts every minute and publishes via the platform API. You do not need to be online.
  • Instagram · Facebook — one scheduled post can go to both simultaneously. TikTok publishing is in platform review, coming soon.

Setup: connect your own Meta developer app in Settings → Social platforms. Kitch stores only an encrypted OAuth token — no shared platform credentials. Each restaurant publishes from its own account.

Kitch QR — print-ready table codes, bulk export, and scan analytics

Kitch QR is live. Point a code at your live menu or any URL, label each by table, and download SVG or 300 DPI PNG — or bulk-export your entire floor in one go, every code uniquely tagged. Scan analytics show which tables scan most and when.

It's included with every Kitch plan — the free one too — embedded in your dashboard under QR Codes. Not a separate subscription; the QR is part of the page it points at.

Improved

Promo and menu changes now publish live, instantly

Changes you make to your live data — menu items, hours, and promos — now take effect immediately, with no separate draft-and-publish step to remember. Say what changed; guests see it before the next table sits down.

Design Studio — on-brand social and marketing graphics

The Design Studio turns your dashboard into a lightweight design tool: pick a layout, make it yours with your copy and palette, and export print- and post-ready graphics (PNG, JPEG, SVG). Built for operators who don't have a design team.
