Beta and backup note Founder Beta is for testing and feedback. Restaurants should keep their own off-platform backups of important records, and AI suggestions should be reviewed by a person before business decisions are made. By applying, you agree that use is subject to the applicable Legal / Terms.

Built from real kitchen feedback

Help shape the parts that matter during an actual shift.

The most valuable feedback is practical: Does it save manager time? Does 86Voice make the app easier to use? Do order drafts, price warnings, waste/par insights, Menu Intelligence, Smart Prep Matching, and Manager Brief make the restaurant easier to run?

Start with one useful win

Free setup keeps the first step manageable.

Choose prep, 86 alerts, schedules, reminders, ordering, inventory, or another pain point. Set up that workflow first, then add more only when the team is ready.

Smart Kitchen beta focus

Test the strongest intelligence tools on real restaurant data.

Founder Beta restaurants can help refine 86Voice, AI-assisted ordering, Manager Brief intelligence, Menu Intelligence, invoice price warnings, waste/par analysis, prep prediction, forecasting, and human-reviewed recommendations.
