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.
