Three steps. The first one is a photo.

You already have the material. The menu, the display case, the website. Trainseed does the rest.

Capture

Snap the display case, upload the menu PDF, or paste your website address. Trainseed pulls out every item with its price, ingredients and allergens.

Approve

Fix anything it got wrong and approve the questions. Assign them by role or by station. About ten minutes, once.

Drill

Each person gets up to six questions before their shift. Under two minutes. Whatever they miss comes back until it sticks.

The full walkthrough

What your team sees

Built to be done standing up, one-handed, with a queue forming. Never below 16px. Works offline once it has loaded.

A drill question asking which pastry contains tree nuts, with three photo options — Six questions, two minutes. Photo ID, multiple choice, order of steps, price recall.

A required allergen question with a REQUIRED badge and a correct answer highlighted — Allergen questions are marked required and never count toward the streak. They are scored on their own.

Owner readiness view listing team members, their station sign-offs and weak spots — Owners see who is ready to open the coffee bar and who is shaky on the tree-nut dishes.

Menu changed Tuesday. Training changed Tuesday.

Re-upload the menu. This week's drill picks up the new items, the new prices and whatever is gone. Nobody's streak or history is touched.

Other tools reset everyone's progress when you edit the content. So nobody edits the content.

"Everyone completed it" is not the same as "everyone knows it."

See the item, the person and the gap. Who is shaky on the tree-nut dishes. Who has not been signed off on the espresso bar. Who needs 90 seconds of practice before doors.

Missed questions come back the next day, then in three, then in seven. A weak spot clears after three right answers in a row.

Per-person readiness and station sign-offs

Coach the conversation, not just the fact.

A guest asks if the risotto is gluten-free. The right answer is a sentence, not a checkbox. Roleplay and voice practice are scored against a rubric with one concrete tip every time.

Upsells, cross-sells and safe allergy answers, practised out loud before they are said to a guest.

A scored roleplay answer with a rubric and one coaching tip

Built for teams with a lot of product to know

Cafes and restaurants first. The vocabulary changes by industry; the two-minute habit does not.

Questions owners ask first

Do I have to write anything?

No. Photograph your display case or upload your menu and Trainseed drafts the lessons and questions from your real items, prices, ingredients and allergens. You fix anything it got wrong and approve it. That takes about ten minutes, once.

Does my team need to install an app?

No. The drill runs in any phone browser and works offline once it has loaded. iOS and Android apps are coming, but nobody has to wait for them.

How long does a drill take?

Up to six questions, under two minutes, one-handed. It is built to be done standing up before a shift, not sitting down after one.

How do I get started?

Sign up at app.trainseed.com, photograph your menu and approve the draft. Your 14-day free trial starts right away, no card needed. Trainseed is live for cafes and restaurants. If you run a different kind of business, leave your email on your industry page and we will tell you when it opens.
