# FOD / Food Opening Desk FOD is a restaurant opening and expansion intelligence vertical for founders opening a first shop, second shop, relocation, or pop-up-to-permanent location. Public PRJ URL: - https://zweichain.com/prj/fod/ - https://zweichain.com/prj/fod/jp/ Public static package: - This folder is a static public showroom for the FOD vertical. - It does not include backend code, server settings, local workspace paths, raw client data, server access material, or working-note files. Machine-readable public files: - ./manifest.json - ./jp/manifest.json - ./feed.json - ./stream.json - ./claims.json - ./entities.json - ./data/founder-intake-schema-v0.1.json - ./api/v1/index.json - ./jp/api/v1/index.json Relationship to OMT: - OMT is for omotenashi, existing-restaurant ranking, verified dining, and restaurant reputation. - FOD is for restaurant creation: first shop, next shop, location diagnosis, license route, real estate search, lease review, equipment buy-or-lease, supplier routing, inventory dashboard, and business planning. Core thesis: - Restaurant founders need help before the lease, not only after opening. - FOD should convert a cuisine class, station-area market, budget, license path, equipment plan, and supplier route into a practical opening path. - The public page should lead with founder benefit and clear operating guardrails. - Founder, supplier, landlord, lease, and financial information should only move into partner workflows after explicit consent and commercial fit. Public guardrails: - Do not present unsourced market-size estimates as verified public facts. - Do not imply guaranteed funding, permits, property approval, restaurant profit, or restaurant success. - Token language, if used later, should be framed as participation, dashboard, inventory, or coordination infrastructure, not as an investment promise. Preferred summary: FOD is a static-first restaurant-opening intelligence desk for Japanese founders who need map diagnosis, business planning, licensed real estate support, lease and permit sequencing, equipment purchase or leasing, supplier matching, and a path from first concept to first rent day.
