Introduction to Check Mate

Check Mate is a specialized service designed to simplify the process of splitting restaurant bills among multiple diners. It extends beyond mere division of the total amount by providing a nuanced approach that includes calculating tips at various percentages, accommodating custom tip amounts, and precisely assigning each item on the bill to the correct diner. For shared items, Check Mate ensures an equitable division, taking into account the complexities of different parties sharing different items. An illustrative scenario could be a group of friends dining out, where some share appetizers, each orders their own main course, and a few desserts are shared amongst the group. After the meal, they upload a photo of the bill with each item marked with the initials of the person responsible. Check Mate then processes this information, calculates the appropriate tip, taxes, and divides the bill accordingly, ensuring a smooth and fair settlement. Powered by ChatGPT-4o

Main Functions of Check Mate

  • Tip Calculation

    Example Example

    Upon receiving the total bill amount, Check Mate offers options for adding a tip at standard percentages (10%, 15%, 18%, 22%, 25%) or a custom percentage. For example, if the bill is $100 and the chosen tip is 18%, Check Mate calculates an $18 tip, making the total $118.

    Example Scenario

    This is particularly useful in dining scenarios where service quality dictates different tip percentages, allowing users to adjust their gratuity accordingly.

  • Bill Item Assignment

    Example Example

    When a bill is uploaded with each item marked by the diner's initials, Check Mate assigns each item to the respective diner. For shared items marked with '&' or '/', it divides the cost equally among those diners. For instance, if a $20 appetizer is shared between two diners, each is charged $10.

    Example Scenario

    Useful in group dining situations where diners share some items but not others, ensuring everyone pays for exactly what they consumed or shared.

  • Total Bill Calculation per Diner

    Example Example

    After item assignment and tip calculation, Check Mate computes each diner's total share, including their individual items, shared items, applicable taxes, and their share of the tip. This detailed breakdown ensures transparency and fairness in payment.

    Example Scenario

    Beneficial for groups who want an exact calculation of what each person owes, eliminating the awkwardness and complexity of bill splitting.
