I Built a $6 Menu Translator Cafes Actually Want (Gemma Local, $0 API Cost)

说明与用途

本地化菜单翻译器，离线运行，使用开源Gemma模型，数据保存在餐厅本地，30道菜+二维码一次性收费₹499（$6）。

问题

Restaurant owners lose foreign customers daily because generic translation apps misinterpret dish names, require internet, and send recipes to uncontrolled servers.

结果

The solution allows a single-location restaurant to pay a one-time fee of ₹499 ($6) for 30 dishes plus QR, with no monthly SaaS costs, zero marginal cost per translation, and full data privacy.

工作流

• Install dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt
• Run offline CLI demo with python demo.py to translate sample dishes
• Run Gradio UI with python app.py to translate user input and view provenance
• Optionally enable Gemma local by setting HF_TOKEN in .env and restarting the app

证据

Owners lose foreign customers daily to “what is Chole Bhature?” Generic translate apps mangle dish names, need internet, and send recipes to a server they don’t control.
