Everything Alex can do for you
Six core capabilities — all available today, all powered by one intelligent assistant.
Ops KPI Tracking
Track GP%, covers, labour cost, and revenue across your venues in real time. Alex surfaces variance alerts before they hurt your margins.
“Show me last week's GP% across all my sites”
Stock Management
Manage inventory counts, track wastage, and keep stock levels balanced. Digital stock takes with full audit trails replace paper and spreadsheets.
“What items are below reorder level this week?”
Purchasing & Ordering
Generate purchase orders from par levels and actual usage. Review supplier pricing and manage cost-of-sales without the guesswork.
“Create a purchase order for my top 10 ingredients”
Recipe & Menu Costing
Cost your recipes with live supplier prices. Simulate margin changes and see GP% per dish instantly — no more month-end surprises.
“What is the GP% on my fish and chips recipe?”
Guided Setup
Alex walks you through the entire setup — importing your catalogue, configuring recipes, connecting Square, and getting your first cost reports.
“Help me set up my first venue”
Catalogue & POS Sync
Manage items, variations, modifier lists, categories, and menus. Build in Crunch, publish to Square — one source of truth for everything.
“Show me all items without a category”
