Make smarter offsite decisions: At the farmer’s market and wondering what your restaurant could use? Check your Top Selling Products to see which items are flying off the pass.


Optimise your sales strategy on the fly: Notice a significant increase in customers ordering via Uber Eats, as shown in the Tender Report? Launch a quick promo encouraging customers to use your direct delivery app instead.

Manage bookings and reservations effortlessly: Got a reservation request while commuting? Check and confirm it through the Reservations section of the Pocket BI and alert the team before you even get home.

Negotiate with confidence: Meeting a supplier and need to confirm menu pricing or availability? Access your full product list instantly from the Products section of the app.

Plan proactively: Spotted a weekend heatwave, through the weather forecast on your Pocket BI's dashboard? Promote cold beverages in anticipation of customers who will be looking to cool down.
