How it works

1

Add your sales

Upload a CSV, link your Google Sheet, or connect Square. Lunch and dinner by day.

2

Get tomorrow’s plan

Every night: trays to bake, when to bake them, and veggie prep – adjusted for weather, season and events.

3

Watch waste drop

Count sticks left at close. PrepForecast learns your store and shows the savings, before and after.

Everything a shop manager needs. Nothing they don’t.

Tomorrow’s bake, by tray

Exactly how many trays to bake by 10 AM, the rest of lunch, and dinner – with a goal for how many sticks you want left at close.

Stop line after lunch

Type in lunch sales and PrepForecast tells you to bake more or fewer dinner trays. Busy days don’t run out; slow days don’t waste.

Live weather

Hot, rainy, snowy or freezing – the forecast adjusts automatically and learns how weather really moves your sales.

Holidays & events

Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, early closes, home games, festivals. Add an event once and forget it.

Veggie prep

Lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, cucumbers – or anything else – in bins or pans, from your own ratios.

Nightly PDF

A printable prep sheet lands in your inbox (or your printer) every night. Crew never needs a login.

Before & after savings

Log leftovers at close and watch waste drop on a chart. See a backtest on your own sales the day you sign up.

Questions

How much history do I need?+

Eight weeks of daily lunch and dinner sales gets you started. A year or more lets PrepForecast use last year’s season too.

Do my employees need training?+

About five minutes: bake the “by 10 AM” trays, check the stop line after lunch, and count sticks left at close.

Which POS systems work?+

Square connects directly. Toast and Clover are coming – until then, export a CSV or use a Google Sheet.

Is it only for bread?+

Bread is the star, but you can forecast any prep item that scales with sales: veggies, meats, cheese, cookies.

Can I cancel anytime?+

Yes. Monthly billing, no contract. Your first 14 days are free.
