Margins don't break suddenly.
They drift.

By the time it shows in your monthly P&L, the damage has already compounded for weeks.

Silent Leakage
Vendor Price Creep

Supplier rates shift ₹5–15/kg quietly. Across dishes and outlets, this compounds to lakh-level exposure before your next weekly review.

Silent Leakage
Portion Inconsistency

Kitchen prep varies shift to shift. A 15% portion drift on your top dish across 6 outlets is completely invisible in weekly averages.

Hidden in Averages
Wastage & Spoilage

Three spike days can cost ₹9,900. Your weekly average shows ₹124. The average looks fine. The money is already gone.

No Visibility
Outlet Underperformance

One outlet running 15% above standard cost is ₹1.6L/month gone. You're reviewing stores independently — not benchmarking them.

Delayed Detection
Month-End Discovery

Drift starts Day 4. Your review happens Day 10. Your P&L happens Day 30. Your current process is built for reporting, not detection.

THE RESULT
Restaurants lose 2–5% of revenue to margin drift they never detect in time.

Not because they don't care. Because no system tells them early enough.

Know the moment a dish starts costing you more

We compute your actual dish cost daily — not from a static recipe sheet. When cost drifts outside its normal band, you get an alert with root cause, ₹ impact, and a clear first action.

Real dish cost, not theoreticalWe infer actual cost per dish from invoice and POS data — even for dishes without a full recipe sheet.
Root cause attributedVendor price increase, portion drift, wastage spike, or outlet deviation — we tell you which, with confidence level.
₹ impact on every alertDay-level impact, trend window, and forward projection if the issue continues unresolved.
Cross-outlet benchmarkingSame dish, different outlet — 15% cost variance detected and flagged before it becomes a month-end surprise.

Alerts activate — you act, we track

From Day 8, drift alerts go live on WhatsApp. Every alert has a root cause, ₹ impact, and a suggested action. You act. We track the outcome.

Precision over noise
Built on real restaurant reality,
not ideal operating conditions

This exactly matched what was happening in our kitchen. We had suspected a portion issue for weeks but couldn't prove it. MarginIQ showed us the data within days.

We found an outlet issue we had missed for three months. The alert came with a rupee figure attached. That's when I realised this is a completely different category of tool.

About Us
Restaurants deserve
financial clarity.

Operators work too hard to lose money invisibly. We built the system that should have existed ten years ago.

Billing tools exist. POS exists. Accounting exists. But when a restaurant operator asks "why did my margins drop this week?" — no system answers that clearly, quickly, or in rupees. So we built MarginIQ.

Signals over noise

Three alerts you act on are worth more than thirty you ignore. Every insight is reviewed for confidence and ₹ impact before it reaches you.

Action over reporting

We're not a dashboard you check. We're a system that tells you what changed, what it's costing, and what to do first. The answer comes to you.

Daily clarity over hindsight

Monthly P&L is financial archaeology. We shift the feedback loop from weeks to hours, so you act before the damage compounds.

"We are building the operating co-pilot we wish every restaurant owner had — one that understands the chaos of real kitchen operations, works on messy fragmented data, and gives you clear answers before the damage compounds."
