Generate a Menu Board

Create an AI-powered menu board image from your menu.

  1. Click Images in the sidebar, then select the Menu Board tab.
  2. Choose your menu from the dropdown and enter your restaurant name.
  3. Choose the Image Size that matches your display — for example, use 4K for ultra-sharp results on 4K screens, or 1K for quicker generation on smaller displays.
  4. In the Reference Design section, click Browse Designs and pick a design you like from the gallery — the AI will match its layout and style with your menu items.
  5. Select the menu items you want to feature, then click Generate Menu Board.

You can also upload your own reference image or even snap a photo of a menu board you like — the AI will use it as a style guide. The signage style is automatically matched to your chosen reference, so there is no need to set it manually.

Tip: You can select as many menu items as you want, but for the best visual result we recommend featuring a focused selection — a handful of items or a few categories per board. The ideal count also depends on the reference design you pick; some layouts work better with more items, others with fewer. When in doubt, start small and generate another board later for additional items.
