Every menu hides a dish that loses money
MarginMind AI finds it. Real-time, dish-level profit margin analytics — recipe costing, live food-cost variance, and a menu ranked by what it actually earns.
From recipe card to repricing decision
Cost every recipe once
Ingredient-by-ingredient costing with yield percentages for prep waste — the step most operators skip, and the reason their costs are understated.
Guided during onboardingTrack variance continuously
Ideal vs actual food cost computed on every sale. A variance above 4% means waste, over-portioning or theft — and now you'll know which dish.
Live, not month-endAct on the Menu Matrix
The Menu Matrix screen ranks every dish — stars, puzzles, workhorses, dogs — and shows what to push, promote, reprice or retire, with the rupee impact of each move.

What owners ask first
What is MarginMind AI?
MarginMind is a proprietary AI analytics module within F&Bos that calculates the true profit margin for each dish in real time. It analyses live sales data alongside food cost, ingredient usage, portion size and wastage — so operators can identify underperforming items, correct pricing and reduce food cost without waiting for month-end accounts.
How does MarginMind calculate dish profitability?
Each recipe is costed ingredient by ingredient, including yield percentage for prep waste. Every POS sale updates the dish's contribution margin at current ingredient prices — so when onions spike ₹25→₹70/kg, your margins update the same week, not at year-end.
Do other restaurant platforms offer dish-level margin analytics?
Many restaurant POS systems include recipe costing or food cost reports. MarginMind goes further: it updates each dish's margin with every sale at current ingredient prices, compares ideal with actual food cost, and ranks the menu in the Menu Matrix with an action for each dish. It's part of the Pro and Enterprise plans, not a separate tool. See how F&Bos compares with a typical restaurant POS.
What is restaurant analytics software?
Restaurant analytics software turns your bills, recipes and stock into numbers you can act on: what sold, what each dish earned, where food cost leaks, and which outlet needs attention. In F&Bos this is MarginMind AI plus the sales, stock and multi-outlet reports.
What is the Menu Matrix?
The Menu Matrix sorts every dish by margin and sales volume into stars, puzzles, workhorses and dogs, and suggests what to push, promote, reprice or retire. It's a form of menu engineering, updated from live sales.
