Vegan restaurant intelligence for your product
Compass helps your app or AI assistant find US restaurants, understand their vegan options, and explain why a place matches a user's vegan or plant-based preferences—with supporting evidence and clear uncertainty.
Free to try. No credit card required.
The challenge your team faces
Your app finds the restaurant, fits it into the itinerary, and explains why it belongs. Then a vegan user asks what they can actually eat there. That is where a convincing recommendation needs supporting information.
Do these follow-up questions sound familiar?
Menu detail
Knowing a place is vegan-friendly does not tell your product which menu items support that claim. A plausible dish name or ingredient list can sound just as convincing as a supported one.
Your team needs to distinguish menu evidence from generated detail.
Supporting information
The first answer sounds confident. The follow-up reveals general knowledge, an unclear source, or no check date. Your team is left deciding how much confidence to show the user.
Your team needs to see what the answer rests on and what is missing.
User experience
Your product recommends a restaurant, then sends the user to other sites to find out whether it suits them. Confirmation may still be necessary, but the user needs to know what is already supported and what remains unanswered.
Give users useful context before asking them to confirm the gaps.
When a recommendation cannot stand up to a simple follow-up, it is your product's credibility on the line.
You have already built the experience. Your team shouldn't have to build and maintain a specialist vegan evidence layer just to explain its restaurant recommendations.
Your users deserve to know what supports a recommendation and what still needs checking.
How Compass helps
Keep the recommendation experience you have built. Compass adds the available vegan information, supporting evidence, and limitations for US restaurants, so your product can explain a match and make gaps visible. When the evidence is insufficient, it can return that uncertainty rather than fill in the missing detail.
Read how we handle evidence →Recorded response · May 4, 2026
Compass identified 6 vegan dishes out of 50 parsed, but still returned “unknown” for the requested profile because the evidence was insufficient.
The dated example shows the supporting information and the gaps; it is not a promise about every restaurant.

* Illustrative example
Vegan dishes were identified, but the recorded response did not have enough evidence to confirm this profile. Ask the restaurant before relying on the recommendation.
6 vegan dishes identified out of 50 parsed.
Missing information: Preparation practices were not declared, and source confidence was low.
Based on the existing recorded Compass response evaluated May 4, 2026. This is a historical example; current restaurant information can differ.
What this makes possible
Help users see why a restaurant may work for them, while giving your team a clear basis for the recommendation and a way to handle uncertainty.
Use the available menu information and evidence returned with a result to explain why a restaurant may match. Missing dish information stays a gap to confirm.
Show what is supported and what remains unconfirmed, so users know why they may need to check with the restaurant.
Add Compass's vegan context alongside your existing restaurant provider or AI workflow.
