Modules

See your whole restaurant click into place

Each works on its own. The ones that share data keep each other up to date, so a price change in one shows up in the others.

Start with one module at $25 a month per location, or everything for $99. Add or drop modules whenever you like.

The charge nobody was looking for

Upload your bank and card statements and every line gets read. Smooth Ops flags the same charge paid twice, and learns what each account normally spends on so a vendor it does not recognise stands out. One catch: $780 that had been deposited and reversed weeks later, sitting unnoticed for almost a year

Custom builds

If it almost fits, we build the rest

Every kitchen does something its own way. When a module is close but not quite how you work, we build it to your setup, inside the same app your team already uses.

A one time build cost on top of your normal plan, quoted once we understand the job. If it is not worth building, we will tell you that instead.

See three we already built, including the audit that tells a covered shift trade apart from a forgotten clock-out.

Run your restaurant on real numbers, not guesswork

Most owners find out a vendor raised prices weeks later, after the margin is already gone. Here is the difference.

The old way
  • Scattered spreadsheets
  • Guessed margins
  • Stale prices
  • Manual invoice entry
With Smooth Ops
  • One platform
  • Live costs
  • Automatic updates
  • Confident pricing

From a shoebox of invoices to price alerts on autopilot, in days not months.

Snap your invoices and import your menu

Day 3

What it caught

Three things Smooth Ops flagged before they cost real money. Every catch below is real.

"One vendor double charged us and Smooth Ops caught that mistake. This app pays for itself."

Arika · Wildflower Co.

Caught a Saturday night with one person on it

A manager had a single team member scheduled for our busiest shift of the week. Smooth Ops caught it before the week ran. That would have been a disaster.

Greg · Mini Monster Cafe

Price increases surface on their own now

We can track any price increase across our COGS. Before this, someone had to sit there and sift through every item by hand to update the prices.

FAQ

Straight answers

What is Smooth Ops?+
A back-office platform for independent food businesses. It handles the work that usually lives in spreadsheets, from recipe costing and invoices to cash, inventory, tips, and tasks, in one place.
How does the invoice AI work?+
You upload a photo of an invoice and the AI reads every line and price. You approve any price changes, and your food cost updates from there. The original photo stays stored and searchable.
Can I start with one module?+
Yes. Any single module is $25 a month, and everything together is $99 a month. Add or drop modules whenever you like.
Do I need to replace my POS?+
No. Smooth Ops sits alongside what you already use and imports your Square reports. Nothing about how you ring up sales changes.
Is it free to try?+
Yes. Your first 30 days are free, and no credit card is required.
Is there a contract?+
No. It is month to month and you can cancel anytime.
Can you build something custom for my business?+
Yes. If a module almost fits but your kitchen does something its own way, we can build it to match how you actually work. That is a one time build cost on top of your normal monthly plan, quoted once we understand what you need. Tell us what is missing and we will tell you straight whether it is worth building.
