Your restaurant runs on
more than your POS.

Bagel is the AI operating layer that connects to your existing Square, Toast, or Lightspeed. It links your POS to inventory, labor, and suppliers so you can see your whole operation, understand the root cause of every cost problem, and act on it without switching apps.

Your POS sees transactions. Your margins live everywhere else.

Food cost lives in your inventory system. Labor cost lives in your scheduling tool. Supplier prices live in your email inbox. Your POS sees none of it.

By the time your P&L lands, the damage is already locked in. Operators are making decisions mid-week with partial data. The gap between what they know and what is actually happening costs real margin.

The only platform that closes the full loop

Most restaurant tools give you data. Bagel gives you data, diagnosis, and execution in one interaction.

SEE

Cross-system visibility

Your POS tracks revenue. Bagel connects it to inventory consumption, labor hours, and supplier invoices, giving you a complete operational picture mid-week and not at month-end.

Most operators discover margin problems after the period closes. Bagel surfaces them while you can still act.

UNDERSTAND

Root cause, automatically

Not "food cost is up 2%." But "Roma tomatoes are 40% over expected on your last 3 orders." Bagel drills to the ingredient, dish, supplier, and shift level so you know the driver and not just the symptom.

The gap between "something is wrong" and "here is exactly why" is where most operators get stuck. Bagel closes it automatically.

ACT

Agentic execution

"Send an email to our supplier asking for better prices." Operator confirms; Bagel executes. No app-switching, no manual drafting, no remembering to follow up.

Bagel is the only platform that delivers all three layers (See, Understand, Act) in a single interaction, for a single-location independent operator.

Control Your Prime Cost. In Real Time.

Most operators see prime cost once a month — buried in a P&L they can't act on. Bagel surfaces food and labor cost as it happens, so you can course-correct before margin slips away.

Ask Bagel

"Why did labor % increase this week?"

"Which menu items are drifting above target?"

"What's driving overtime risk next week?"

Verified Response

Labor % increased 1.2% this week due to 14 hours of unplanned overtime across 3 staff members. Primary driver: understaffing on Tuesday PM shift.
