Short answer

How do I split a restaurant bill with my AI?

Paste your receipt or a list of items into the chat. Your AI uses the split_bill tool to calculate individual totals, including proportional tax, tip, and shared appetizers. You'll get a clear breakdown of what everyone owes.

The outcomes

What you get

The AI handles the math so you don't have to argue over the check.

MATH

Exact individual totals

The AI calculates the specific amount each person owes. It accounts for every cent of tax and tip.

SHARED

Fair appetizer splits

Shared plates are divided among the people who actually ate them. No one pays for food they didn't touch.

PROPORTIONAL

Weighted tax and tip

Tax and tip are distributed based on each person's subtotal. This keeps the math fair for the whole group.

HUMAN

Final review

The AI presents a list of names and amounts. You check the numbers before you settle up with your friends.

The workflow

What your AI does when the bill arrives.

The AI takes your raw receipt data and turns it into a clean breakdown.

  1. Parse the data

    Your AI reads the items, prices, and taxes from the text or image you provide.

  2. Assign diners

FAQ

How it behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI send money to my friends?

    No. The AI only calculates the math. You have to use your own payment apps to actually send the money.

  • 02

    Does it work with photos of receipts?

    Yes. If your AI client can read images, it can use the data from the photo to run the split_bill tool.

  • 03

    Can the AI change the tip amount?

    No. The AI uses the tip amount provided in the receipt or the specific tip percentage you tell it to use.

  • 04

    What if someone didn't eat anything?

    Just tell the AI that person didn't order anything. It will calculate their share as zero.

  • 05

    Does the AI store my personal data?

    No. This MCP only processes the data you provide in the chat to perform the calculation.
