Terms of Service

These terms govern use of foodnear.me, our API, MCP server, and beta restaurant discovery services.

← Back to homepage

1. Agreement

By accessing foodnear.me, submitting a lead form, or using our API or MCP endpoints, you agree to these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the service.

2. Service description

foodnear.me provides AI-native restaurant discovery infrastructure, including the Menu Protocol (MP), Agent Discovery Optimization (ADO), public APIs, and an MCP server for AI agents. The service is currently offered in beta. Features, availability, and pricing may change without notice.

  • We do not operate a full food ordering or delivery marketplace in beta.
  • Menu and restaurant data may be incomplete, outdated, or subject to verification status labels (discovered, menu_indexed, verified).
  • Only data marked verified and owner-approved should be treated as authoritative for operational decisions.

3. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Abuse API or MCP endpoints (scraping beyond documented limits, DDoS, credential stuffing).
  • Attempt to bypass rate limits, authentication, or security controls.
  • Misrepresent affiliation with foodnear.me or restaurant partners.
  • Use the service for unlawful purposes or to publish harmful content.
  • Reverse engineer or resell access in violation of applicable law or these Terms.

4. Restaurant and menu data

Dietary flags, allergen fields, and menu items are provided for discovery and agent-readability. They are not medical or safety guarantees. Consumers with allergies or strict dietary requirements must confirm details directly with the restaurant before ordering or visiting.

Restaurants remain responsible for the accuracy of menu information they approve for publication through Menu Protocol.

5. Lead forms and communications

When you submit an ADO audit or waitlist request, you provide contact information so we can respond about foodnear.me services. You represent that the information is accurate and that you have authority to share it.

6. API and MCP access

Public beta endpoints may be rate-limited. We may require API keys, usage tiers, or paid access (including x402 or other payment rails) in the future. Continued access is not guaranteed during beta.

7. Intellectual property

The foodnear.me brand, site design, and proprietary tooling are owned by the project operators. Menu Protocol specifications intended as open standards may be published under separate license terms. Third-party trademarks (restaurant names, cuisines) belong to their respective owners.

8. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION.

9. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, FOODNEAR.ME AND ITS OPERATORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS ARISING FROM RELIANCE ON MENU, ALLERGEN, OR LOCATION DATA. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THE SERVICE IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF USD $100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM.

10. Changes

We may update these Terms. Material changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
