THE PROBLEM

Food cost slips away in the gap between the menu and the order guide.

Portion size is only the beginning. Yield changes by cut. Cooking changes it again. Menu mix moves nightly. Most ordering tools ignore the kitchen math that actually decides how much product you need.

AlaCarteOS puts that math in one living system.

MISEMATH™ INSIDE

From menu intent to a purchase order you can defend.

One connected model for the variables that shape every à la carte service.

01

Map the real menu

Connect every menu item to its protein cut, cooked portion, prep method, and expected sales mix.

02

Account for yield

Built-in cut and cook loss translate the portion on the plate into the raw product you actually need.

03

Forecast the service

Combine expected covers with menu mix and service confidence to see demand before the first ticket prints.

04

Close the loop

Reconcile what sold and what remained. Each service gives the next forecast better information.

REAL KITCHEN VARIABLES · ONE CLEAR VIEW

The math behind the mise, without the math headache.

Start with the cuts you buy and the dishes you sell. AlaCarteOS handles the translation from cooked portions back to raw purchasing quantities.
