Cafe Inventory, Recipe Costing & POS Depletion Engine.

Bridge the structural gap between POS telemetry and trench-level physical stock. Model recipe bills of materials (BOM), ingredient unit costing, live till deductions, and reconcile theoretical usage against physical count variance.

100% Client-Side Privacy All recipe specs, supplier pricing, inventory levels, and POS transactions run strictly within your local browser storage. Zero operational telemetry is sent externally.

Specialty cafe inventory control architecture featuring Bill of Materials (BOM) costing, live touch POS simulation, automatic raw ingredient depletion, and Theoretical vs. Actual (TvA) audit variance decomposition.

Operational Reality vs. Financial Reporting
