Inventory says what you have. The forecast says what you’ll need.
Craftable tracks what is on hand and which recipes use it. ClearCOGS adds the number a count cannot give you: how much of each item each location will sell tomorrow, built from its own POS history plus weather, local events and seasonality. Nothing connects the two systems, and nothing in Craftable changes.
Talk to our teamHow ClearCOGS works with Craftable
ClearCOGS connects to major POS systems, including Toast, Square, and Oracle Simphony, and builds each location’s forecast from its sales history. Craftable stays the system of record for counts, recipes and invoices.
A one-way read of POS sales data, switched on at kickoff. ClearCOGS never writes to your POS and has no connection to Craftable, so there is no link between the two systems to build or look after.
Every morning the forecast lands in inboxes: each item, the expected amount and a maximum to guard against 86s. Your team keeps counting, costing and ordering in Craftable.
ClearCOGS Compatible means ClearCOGS runs alongside Craftable in the same operation, with no agreement between the companies and no connection between the systems. Craftable CEO David Cantu joined The Restaurant AI Podcast to talk back-office margins; the episode is linked below.
No. ClearCOGS has no connection to Craftable and changes nothing in it. The forecast comes from POS sales history and arrives by email each morning.
A forward view. A count says what is on hand now; the forecast says how much of each item you will sell tomorrow, so prep and ordering are sized to expected demand, not last week’s usage. ClearCOGS customers average a 55% waste reduction and 10+ hours saved per manager, every week.
Book a meeting. We set up read-only POS access, build each location’s forecast, and most operators are live in about three weeks. Nothing in Craftable has to change.
