Coming soon. The Genius integration is in final certification and not yet generally available. Contact your Maple representative to join the waitlist.
Connect Maple to Genius (Heartland Restaurant) for AI-powered ordering with automatic menu sync and direct order injection.

​
Prerequisites

Before starting, ensure you have:
  • ✅ Your location’s Genius API key (from the Heartland Restaurant portal). This is the only key you enter — the partner authentication key is configured once by Maple and applies to every location.
  • ✅ Maple Voice Core configured
  • ✅ Location configuration

​
Setup process

1

Enter your location API key

Provide the Genius API key for this restaurant in the Maple dashboard. Maple verifies it live against your Genius location.
2

Choose how paid orders are recorded

Select the Genius house account that should record Maple-paid orders on the check, or leave checks unpaid for staff to settle at the register.
3

Choose how the delivery fee is recorded

If your Genius location has a service charge configured, pick the one that should record the delivery fee on orders your own drivers deliver — or choose not to record it. This step is skipped when your location has no service charge to select.
4

Activate

Your menu imports automatically from Genius. Verify items, sizes, modifiers, and prices, then go live.

​
Features

  • Automatic menu synchronization, including 86’d / out-of-stock items and ingredients
  • Full modifier support, including per-item modifier configurations, size pricing, and context options (Extra / Light / On Side)
  • Tax and totals calculated by Genius — what the guest pays always matches the Genius check
  • Real-time updates: menu publishes and stock changes push from Genius to Maple instantly
  • Orders appear directly on your Genius POS and KDS

​
Payment processing

Maple can collect payment before the order is sent to Genius, recording it against the house account you selected during setup, or send the order unpaid for staff to settle in store.
  • Pay-in-store is supported — the check arrives open on the POS
  • Tips collected by Maple ride on the order to Genius
  • On orders your own drivers deliver, the driver tip rides on the check and the delivery fee is recorded as the service charge you selected during setup
Your Genius menu syncs automatically:
  • ✅ All menus (groups), categories (sections), items, and sizes with per-size pricing
  • ✅ Modifiers with per-item defaults, exclusions, and included-quantity rules
  • ✅ Context options (Extra / Light / On Side) with their pricing
  • ✅ 86’d (out-of-stock) items and ingredients
Menu changes should be made in Genius. Publishing a menu or changing stock pushes to Maple automatically, and you can trigger a manual sync from the Maple dashboard.
