What it shows you

The numbers that pay the subscription.

This is what your kitchen looks like after an afternoon of setup: every leak visible, every dish costed, every price change flagged.

Actual vs. theoretical variance report showing cost impact per product in dollars
Actual vs. theoreticalWhere product is disappearing — sales and waste against your stock, in dollars.
Menu profitability dashboard with revenue, COGS, food cost percent and margin per dish
Menu profitabilityMargin per dish from a photo of your Z-report. The 38% dish shows up red.
Price alerts showing olive oil up 18 percent
Price alertsWhen a supplier quietly raises a price, you know — and your recipe costs already reflect it.
Purchase orders panel with sent and draft orders
Suppliers & purchase ordersOrders pre-filled from your shopping list, sent by WhatsApp, received into stock.
How it works

No integrations. A camera.

MarketMan's answer to your POS and suppliers is an integration catalog. Ours is the camera you already have.

01

Photograph it

Supplier invoices, price lists, the daily Z-report from any POS — Toast, Square, Lightspeed, anything with a printout.

02

AI reads every line

Ingredients, prices, pack sizes, dishes sold. You review the extraction before it counts — nothing enters your data unchecked.

03

Your numbers update

Recipe costs, stock, price history, variance, margins. The reports above stay current without a single manual entry.

Video tutorials

From scratch, step by step.

Seven short videos, in English, that take you from a freshly created account to the profitability reports. It's exactly what you'll do in your free trial — watch them here or on YouTube.
