ClearCOGS Reviews & Product Details

ClearCOGS is restaurant forecasting software and the Operational Decision Platform (ODP) for multi-unit restaurant operators. It reads the sales history already in a restaurant's POS, adds weather, local events and seasonality, and hands each location its plan for tomorrow: what to prep item by item, what to order, and how many hours to schedule. Managers receive the plan every morning by email, before service starts, with no new hardware and no change to how the team rings up a check. What operators get: - Daily prep targets by item and location, with a ceiling that stops over-prep. - Ordering guidance sized to the coming week's expected sales instead of a copy of last week's invoice. - A labor budget for each shift, delivered before the schedule is written. - Catering and online orders counted in the plan where those systems are connected. - Savings and usage reporting for leadership. Integrations are read-only and set up during onboarding: Toast, Square, PAR Brink, Oracle Simphony, NCR Voyix Aloha, SpotOn, Clover, Qu, Revel, PDQ, Shift4, Olo, ezCater, Restaurant365, meez, Fresh KDS and more. Kickoff to the first daily plan takes about three weeks. Across ClearCOGS customers: 55% average waste reduction, 10+ hours saved per manager every week, and 300+ restaurant brands served, from quick-service and fast-casual to full-service, bakeries, commissaries, franchisors and franchisees.
