Control food cost, labor, and cash, without drowning in POS data
We turn daily sales and costs into clean books, VAT-ready reporting, and clear profitability insights by outlet and channel.
Challenges we understand
The problems that come up again and again when we sit down with businesses in restaurants.
POS sales don't reconcile to bank deposits due to refunds, aggregators, and tips
Food cost and wastage are not measured consistently, hurting margin
Labor costs and scheduling are not tied to revenue performance
Inventory and COGS are messy due to weak purchasing and stock counts
VAT compliance risk from mixed supplies (dine-in, delivery, catering)
Multiple outlets/channels create fragmented reporting
