The Engine

From daily sales to forecasts you can act on

A continuous pipeline ingests your data, rebuilds daily KPIs, enriches them with calendar signals, retrains predictive models, and surfaces predictions your team can use.

01

Sync

Pull completed sales and line items from connected POS, ordering, and channel sources on a recurring schedule.

02

Aggregate

Rebuild daily facts, derive KPIs, and enrich them with business-calendar signals — weekends, holidays, paydays.

03

Train

The forecasting engine retrains and refreshes predictive models automatically as new data arrives.

04

Forecast

Generate future KPI predictions, confidence scores, and planning views built for operators.

Five Predictions

Every number you need to plan the week ahead

Each forecast ships with a confidence score and the reasoning behind it.

Revenue forecast

Expected sales for the selected future range so you can plan cash flow and goals.

Transaction forecast

Expected order volume and service load to schedule the right number of hands.

Customer forecast

Predicted guest volume so you can plan labor and seating before the rush.

Units forecast

Predicted item movement for prep and purchasing — order the right amount, waste less.

Average order value

Expected ticket-size direction so you can spot upsell and pricing opportunities.

Confidence on every call

No black boxes. See model quality and error signals next to each forecast, so you know when to trust it — and when to dig deeper.
