Whether you run one restaurant, a busy cocktail bar, an independent hotel or several locations, we turn the technology into tools your team can use every day.

Our AI implementation services

Six areas where AI earns its place.

We work directly with operators to find operational challenges, select the right technology, connect existing systems and implement solutions that deliver real business value.

How you can work with us

From first assessment to ongoing support.

Most clients begin with an assessment, move to implementation and stay for ongoing optimization. Assessment pricing is scoped after a discovery call, so it fits your technology environment and operational needs. Turnaround is 24 to 48 hours, depending on scope. Once scope and cost are agreed, you receive a full report. If you move forward with implementation, the assessment fee is deducted from your total bill.

AI Operations Assessment

A review of your systems, operational inefficiencies and AI opportunities, with recommended solutions.

AI Technology Implementation

Selection, integration, configuration, testing and launch of AI tools.

AI Management & Optimization

Ongoing monitoring, support, reporting and improvement.

An assessment is not a session.

A session is a fixed-length working conversation with a partner. An assessment is a scoped review of your systems and operations that ends in a written plan.

What an assessment covers

A clear picture of where AI helps, and where it does not.

What we do
  • A discovery call to understand your venues, team and goals
  • A review of your systems, such as POS, property management, inventory, scheduling and accounting
  • Conversations with the managers who use those systems every day
  • A ranked list of where AI can save time, cut costs or lift revenue
  • Recommended tools and an implementation plan that fit your budget and team
  • A full written report once scope and cost are agreed, with a walkthrough meeting

The result
You know where to start, what is worth adopting, which of our packaged solutions fits, and what it should take to get there.

How setup is scoped

Setup varies with the scope of work, such as the number of locations and the tools involved. We confirm it after an assessment.

Works with your systems

We work with all PMS, POS, inventory and accounting platforms. What we can track and report depends on the systems you use today.

Example daily briefing

An illustration of the Profit Intelligence output. Figures are examples, not client data. In the real briefing, every finding links to the transactions behind it and explains the calculation.

Yesterday's labor cost was 32.4% versus a 29% target. Overtime and a slower-than-forecast dinner period contributed to the variance. Three menu items also showed margin deterioration after recent supplier price increases. Review Thursday's staffing plan and the affected recipes.
How we work
