The Anti-Choice Manifesto

More choices don't make you happier. They make you paralyzed. Science proves it. We fix it.

warning

Choice Overload is Real

67% of people experience decision paralysis with 10+ options. Yelp shows you 500+. No wonder you're stuck.

schedule

Time is Your Most Valuable Asset

Average person spends 15 minutes deciding where to eat. That's 91 hours per year wasted on lunch paralysis.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know

How is this different from Yelp or Google Maps?

Yelp and Google Maps are directories; they give you a list. We are a decision engine. We give you a single, high-confidence recommendation based on your taste, location, and past history.

How does the AI learn my preferences?

When you onboard, we ask a few simple questions. Then, after each recommendation, you can give a thumbs up or down. The more you use it, the better it gets.

What areas do you cover?

LunchNear.me works anywhere in the United States. Our AI uses real-time data to find restaurants near your current location.

How does group lunch voting work?

Create a lunch group, invite your coworkers via a shared link, and when it's time to decide, the AI suggests options. Everyone votes, winner is chosen in seconds.

What if I don't like the recommendation?

Just swipe to get a new one! You can also give a thumbs down to help the AI learn. Think of it as training your personal food concierge.

Do you support dietary restrictions?

Yes! During onboarding, you can set dietary preferences like vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal, kosher, and more.
