The Reality

Running a restaurant is hard.
Running it on guesswork is harder.

Every day, restaurant owners make costly decisions based on gut feel. The result? Wasted food, overstaffed slow nights, and understaffed rush hours.

🥩

Food Goes to Waste

Ordering too much means throwing away profits at the end of every night. Ordering too little means turning customers away disappointed.

30%of food purchased is wasted on average
👥

Staffing Is a Guessing Game

Scheduling too many servers on a quiet Tuesday or too few on a big event night hurts your bottom line and your team's morale.

Missed Opportunities

A big concert two blocks away. A rainstorm rolling in. A holiday weekend. Without the right intel, you're always one step behind.

FAQ

Got questions?
We've got answers.

How accurate are the predictions?

Our early results show forecast accuracy above 90% for weekly sales totals. Accuracy improves over time as SpoonSense learns the specific patterns of your restaurant. During the pilot, you'll see exactly how our predictions compare to your actual results.

Do I need to share my POS login?

Not at all — that's your choice. SpoonSense can integrate with your POS system with your permission, or you can simply export and upload your sales data as a CSV or PDF. Either works great to get started.

Is my sales data kept private?

Absolutely. Your data is yours alone. It is stored securely and never shared with other restaurants, competitors, or third parties. You can also request deletion of your data at any time.

How much historical data do I need?

Ideally 3–6 months of past sales gives SpoonSense enough to identify your patterns. Even with less, we can get started and accuracy improves as more data comes in. We'll be upfront about what to expect based on what you have.

How long until I get my first forecast?

Most restaurants receive their first forecast within 24 hours of connecting or uploading their data. Our team walks you through every step of setup to make sure everything is right.

What happens after the pilot ends?

Pilot partners will be offered a special founding-member pricing plan when SpoonSense officially launches — significantly lower than our standard rates. There's no obligation to continue, and we'll give you plenty of notice before anything changes.
