Overview Our Approach Meet Tom AI Connector Sales Forecasting Less Data Entry

^{A DECADE IN THE MAKING}

Good AI needs good data

For more than ten years, we've been organizing the data behind restaurant operations, from invoices and purchasing to inventory, recipes and sales.

Today, that trusted foundation powers AI built specifically for restaurants, helping operators make better decisions, take action faster, and spend more time focused on hospitality.

^{OUR APPROACH}

Hospitality is human. AI should make more room for it.

Restaurants have always been about people. The conversations around the table. The regulars who feel at home. The operators who keep everything moving.

We believe AI should handle repetitive work so your team has more time for hospitality. The best technology does not replace hospitality. It creates more space for it.

^{MEET TOM}

Restaurant expertise, built into MarginEdge

Tom is your restaurant operations copilot, built right into MarginEdge. He helps you understand what happened, why it happened and what to do next.

Understands your business: built on your MarginEdge data, not generic information
Explains the why: surfaces the story behind cost overages and sales swings
Helps you get ahead: guidance on prep, ordering, and waste before it hits the P&L

^{AI CONNECTOR}

Your data, available in the AI tools you're already using

The MarginEdge AI Connector lets you securely access your restaurant data inside AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude, ask questions in plain language and get real answers in seconds, rather than sifting through multiple reports.

Bring your data anywhere: connect MarginEdge into the AI tools you already use
See the full picture: combine MarginEdge data with data from your other systems
Stay in control: you decide what gets accessed, always

^{SALES FORECASTING}

Take the
guesswork out
of running your
restaurant

Your forecast is only as good as the data behind it. MarginEdge creates a custom sales forecast for your restaurant, factoring in past sales, major holidays, weather, seasonality and trends.

Know what's coming: a forecast built for your restaurant, not an industry average
Plan smarter: with a clear picture of upcoming sales, you can schedule smarter, prep efficiently, and order just what you need
Stay ahead of budget: see how you're pacing against last year and get a projected budget for the current period so you can avoid surprises

^{ELIMINATE THE BORING STUFF}

Less time on busywork, more time on the restaurant

Typing ingredient lists by hand. Keying in invoice line items one at a time. That's exactly the kind of work we automate, so you can focus on the hospitality.

Recipe Uploader: paste in your ingredient list and AI matches everything to your products, no manual entry, so your plate costs stay accurate
Automated Invoice Processing: we use a combination of AI and real people to code all your invoices, keeping your prices up to date and saving your team hours
