Multi-location restaurant groups often update every price change by hand across the website, delivery apps and Google, about three hours of copy-paste per change. Here one master sheet drives them all, and an edit propagates everywhere in about four minutes, logged.

The challenge
Every menu change meant logging into the website CMS, three delivery platforms, and five Google Business profiles — roughly three hours of error-prone copy-paste. Updates were postponed until they piled up, so delivery apps sold dishes at last month's prices, promotions launched on some platforms and not others, and customers screenshotted the differences.

2.5×The automation
We built a sync engine around one master sheet holding menus, prices, and promotions for all five locations. Any edit is detected within a minute, validated, and fanned out through APIs to the website CMS, the delivery platforms, and every Google Business profile. A verification pass reads each platform back to confirm the change actually landed, and a change log records who edited what, where it went, and when — with one-click rollback.

The impact
A full price update now takes four minutes instead of three hours, so changes happen the moment they're decided. Cross-platform price mismatches — fourteen a month at their worst — have disappeared, promotions launch everywhere simultaneously, and the operations manager updates seasonal menus for five locations over morning coffee.
Questions about this automation
Which platforms does the menu sync update?
One master Google Sheet feeds the restaurant website's CMS, the delivery platforms the group sells through and each location's Google Business Profile. An edit in the sheet is detected within a minute, validated and pushed to all of them through their APIs, so prices and promotions match everywhere.
How do we know a change actually went live?
After every push, a verification pass reads each platform back and compares it with the master sheet. If a platform rejects an update or shows a different price, the operations manager gets an alert naming the item, location and platform, so the gap is fixed before customers notice it.
Can a wrong price be undone quickly?
Yes. The change log records who edited what, which platforms received it and when. Any change can be rolled back with one click, which restores the previous values in the sheet and pushes them out again. Validation rules also catch missing fields and malformed prices before anything is published.
