Predict + Display, Live Today
Each morning, ClearCOGS analyzes POS history, weather, local events, and seasonal patterns to produce an item-level prep sheet. One webhook per location pushes that prep sheet to Fresh KDS, appearing on every kitchen tablet before the shift begins, synced in real time via MQTT.
– Item-by-item prep quantities on the kitchen screen
– Real-time MQTT sync across every tablet, every shift
– No new hardware. No new training. No app updates.
– Live today at Groucho’s® Deli across 6 locations
Score + Improve, The Complete Loop (Roadmap)
Fresh KDS’s On the Fly app scores kitchen performance shift-by-shift, speed, accuracy, throughput. Connecting those scores back to ClearCOGS closes the loop: each location’s forecast model gets sharper based on how that kitchen actually executed.
– On the Fly scores tied to ClearCOGS prep expectations
– Per-location ML models learn from real performance
– A self-improving kitchen stack no competitor offers
