Be the restaurant

PROBLEM

Do any of these sound familiar?

✓People search by area and cuisine, but they never find your restaurant
✓When people ask AI such as ChatGPT, your restaurant never comes up as a suggestion
✓You have no official website, or you have one that has not been updated since it was built
✓Your restaurant information is scattered across gourmet sites and social media, and none of it matches
✓Your opening hours or menu differ between your Google Business Profile and your official website
✓You have no way in (information in other languages) for overseas visitors to find you
▼
The cause may be that AI cannot “read” your restaurant.All of these come from not having an official website that is optimized for AI.
Without a definitive source of information, neither AI nor search engines can evaluate your restaurant correctly.
WHY NOW

How people find restaurants is shifting
from “searching” to “asking AI”

Until now, people compared several sites and narrowed down the options themselves. From now on, AI will suggest the right restaurant for each person, based on their tastes, location, budget, occasion, dietary restrictions and past behaviour.

Where restaurants get chosen is moving
from search results to AI answers.

If your restaurant is not among the candidates AI suggests, it never even makes the comparison. And this shift is not only happening in Japan. Overseas visitors, who do not know Japan's gourmet sites, will look for restaurants by telling AI what they want in their own language.

  • What AI takes into account: tastes / location / budget / occasion / dietary restrictions / past behaviour
  • Questions overseas visitors ask: "I want to eat wagyu in Shibuya" "Can they handle allergies?"
  • What you need: information set up so that AI picks you as a candidate in its answers

SOLUTION

Mogukatsu is an AIO service built for restaurants

AIO (AI Optimization) means helping ChatGPT, Google’s AI (Gemini), Claude, Perplexity and other AI services understand your restaurant information correctly, so that your restaurant is more likely to be chosen as a candidate in their answers.
Mogukatsu builds on “an official website that AI can read” and provides a system in which information builds up naturally.

POINT 01

Build an official website
that AI can read

We design an official website on your own domain, complete with structured markup. It brings your scattered restaurant information together in one place and makes it the "source of truth" for AI and search engines.

POINT 02

One entry publishes
your posts everywhere

Enter a post once in the restaurant dashboard and it goes out to your official website, Instagram, Google Business Profile, X and Threads at the same time. Updating becomes easy, so your posts keep going.

POINT 03

Third-party visit articles
build up automatically

Creators visit your restaurant, experience it for themselves and write articles. The articles are published on Mogukatsu MAGAZINE and appear on your official website automatically, so information not written by the restaurant itself builds up too.

▼
“Information from the restaurant” and “experiences from visitors”
build up on a single official website.
REASON

Unlike ordinary website production,
it is built differently, for a different job

Why restaurants choose Mogukatsu.

◎REASON

Not just good-looking:
designed so that AI understands it

Whether AI understands your restaurant correctly depends on how the site is built, not on its design. Every Mogukatsu official website is delivered meeting the technical requirements shared by AIO, SEO and MEO.

Your own domainOriginal designEasy to updateAll information in one placeAll links in one place
AIOSEOMEO

Your official website is the foundation for all three, and the technical requirements are the same.

1Written with structured data (JSON-LD)Restaurant details, menu, FAQ, opening hours and more are stated in a machine-readable format
2One piece of information, one canonical URLNo duplicate pages with the same content: a canonical URL is set and related pages are linked internally
3Enough original contentPlenty of text unique to your restaurant, not boilerplate from a template
4Consistent NAP (name, address, phone number)The same spelling on your official website, on Google and on every other listing
5Crawlability and page speedPages can be discovered through a sitemap and similar means, and stay fast on smartphones

Where should your restaurant start with AI optimization?

We review your current website, social media and Google Business Profile and suggest what to tackle first. Consultations are free.

02FIRST PARTY

03THIRD PARTY

Matching with
food PR creators

Restaurants recruit creators by setting visit conditions and a support amount. Creators who apply visit the restaurant, have the dining experience, and then write an article. After it is posted on social media and published on Mogukatsu MAGAZINE, the article appears on your official website automatically.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is AIO (AIO for restaurants)?
AIO means helping ChatGPT, Google's AI and other AI services understand your restaurant information correctly, so that your restaurant is more likely to be chosen as a candidate in their answers. Mogukatsu builds an official website on your own domain as the home base for your restaurant information, and uses structured markup to put it in a form AI can read.
How is it different from SEO or MEO?
They target different evaluators: SEO targets search engines, MEO targets Google Maps, and AIO targets generative AI. But your official website is the foundation for all three, and the technical requirements are the same: structured data, canonical URLs, enough original content, consistent NAP, and crawlability and page speed. Mogukatsu takes care of all of them, starting from one consistent set of restaurant information.
What does it take to be chosen by AI?
Three conditions: organized, consistent and up to date. Gather your restaurant information on your official website and organize it with structured markup (organized), keep it in sync with Google, gourmet sites and social media (consistent), and keep your opening hours and menu current (up to date). When all three are in place, AI can understand, trust and recommend your restaurant.
Can I keep my current website?
The best approach depends on how your current site is built and on the state of its domain. In a free consultation we review where you are now and propose a way forward, whether that means keeping the site or rebuilding it.
I'm worried I won't be able to keep up with social media.
Enter a post once in the restaurant dashboard and it goes out to the news on your official website, Instagram, owner posts on your Google Business Profile, X and Threads at the same time. You can use photos taken at the restaurant or material provided by creators, and photography can be added as an option. There is also a Full Support plan in which we run everything for you.
How does matching with creators work?
The restaurant sets visit conditions and a support amount and recruits creators. Creators who apply visit the restaurant, have the dining experience and then write an article. The article is published on Mogukatsu MAGAZINE and appears on your official website automatically. It is also posted on the creator's social media, so content from a third-party perspective builds up.
Does it help attract overseas visitors?
Yes. Mogukatsu automatically generates multilingual pages from your restaurant information, covering the menu and prices, what makes the dishes special, opening hours and access, reservations and payment methods, allergies and dietary restrictions, how to use the restaurant, the FAQ and more. Note that the multilingual pages are generated automatically: they are not translated by people, and translation quality is not guaranteed.
Which plan should I choose?
As a guide: the Free plan if you want to try matching first, the Light plan (¥25,000/month, excl. tax) if you want an official website that AI uses as a source, the Plus plan (¥38,000/month, excl. tax) if you want to strengthen AI optimization, and the Full Support plan (¥80,000/month, excl. tax) if you want to leave AI optimization entirely to us. Each higher plan includes everything in the plans below it. Use of the service is subject to approval.
Are results guaranteed?
This service does not guarantee results such as higher search rankings, recommendations of your restaurant by AI, visitor numbers or sales. It provides an information foundation that helps AI and search engines read your restaurant information correctly, and a system for keeping it up to date.
