Break-even Check
Tomorrow's forecast vs your daily break-even. The single number that tells you if tomorrow is profitable.
What it does
Break-even Check in plain English
Break-even is the most-overlooked number on a restaurant P&L. We compute your daily break-even from rent + salaries + utilities + EMI + variable cost rate, and compare tomorrow's forecast against it. One green or red light tells you if tomorrow makes money.

FAQ
Break-even Check FAQ
How do I know my fixed costs?
Onboarding asks four questions — monthly rent, total monthly salaries, utilities (electricity + LPG + water), and any EMI. We compute monthly fixed and divide by operating days for daily break-even. You can override the variable cost rate if you know it from history.
Is there a free version of the break-even calculator?
Yes — the public version is at /start/break-even. It's the same math, no login required.
