Who it is for

  • Restaurant chains

    One item master for all locations, with supplier data, recipes and stock kept in sync; the vendor cites L'Osteria running more than 200 restaurants on it.

  • Hotel groups

    Positioned for hotel groups; the vendor names a&o Hostels with 50+ sites across Europe.

  • Contract and event caterers

    A catering module plans catering projects and tracks cost of goods and food waste; an event caterer is quoted as a customer.

Less suited to: Very small operators: the vendor says the system pays off from a single site with roughly €1 million in annual revenue.

What it does

  • Supplier ordering (Procurement)

    Order from connected suppliers and wholesalers at agreed prices, with order history per employee and reordering from past orders.

  • Supplier product data feed

    Pulls prices, allergens, nutritional values and pack sizes directly from connected suppliers; the vendor says more than 1,000 suppliers have data in the system.

  • Recipe management

    Recipes with photos, preparation steps, production losses, translations and automatic allergen and additive labelling from ingredient data.

  • Food costing

    Live cost of goods per dish, with thresholds that trigger alerts and a chart of target versus actual COGS.

  • Inventory and stock management (ERP module)

    Cost centres, product groups, transfers between locations, low-stock alerts, auto-refill and selective stock counts.

  • Smart Lists

    Order lists that organise purchases in one place regardless of supplier.

  • Demand forecast and order suggestions

    Forecasts quantities sold per site from sales, weekday, season, holidays, weather and events, and pre-fills a basket that the user confirms.

  • Invoice and delivery note scanning

    Reads photographed documents, proposes the goods receipt and flags differences against the order and catalogue price.

  • MCP server for AI assistants

    Lets a user connect an AI assistant such as Claude or ChatGPT to query their FoodNotify data in plain language, read-only.

  • Catering module

    Plans catering projects and tracks cost of goods and food waste.

  • Analytics dashboards

    Interactive per-location dashboards on order volume per supplier, sales, location comparison and cost of goods, with predictive analytics.

  • Mobile app

    Order, count stock, check stock levels, accept goods and track food waste from a phone or tablet, with a barcode scanner and a 1.5 million item food database.

  • Carbon footprint of recipes

    Carbon footprint values for recipes and ingredients through the Eaternity integration.
