The three problems that break independent margin
Every independent operator has these three holes in their back office. We close them all.
Surprise food cost at month end
Counts happen once a month, invoices stack up in a folder, and you find out you lost 4 points after the damage is done.
Real-time food cost
YieldAI matches invoices to canonical ingredients, watches PAR drift daily, and flags variance in hours — not 30 days late.
See P&L in actionOverstaffed Tuesdays, understaffed Saturdays
You draft the schedule on Sunday from gut feel. Labor % swings wildly. Staff are upset both ways.
Schedules from the forecast
YieldAI drafts the full week against an item-level demand forecast. Hits your labor target. Respects availability. You hit publish.
See schedulingOrdering from gut feel, not data
You eyeball walk-in stock, call the rep, and overshoot half the time. Waste in the trash, cash trapped on the shelves.
PAR levels that learn
YieldAI sets PAR from real consumption, drafts the PO from current stock + forecast demand, and flags when you're trending out.
See orderingForecasts you can actually plan against
Item-level demand for the next 14 days, hour by hour, with weather and event signals baked in. You stop guessing what to prep and how to staff.
See forecastingCatch the leak while you can still fix it
Real food cost, labor %, and NOI every day. Salaried staff prorated by working hours. No 30-day surprise at month-end close.
