Kitchen & F&B

Calm Kitchenyour F&B stack, or ours.

Bring your existing F&B platform, or use our AI-native implementation — either way, the kitchen joins the operating layer.

Calm Kitchen connects the F&B system you already trust — Apicbase, MarketMan, Adaco, MarginEdge — and reconciles recipes, suppliers, wastage and BEOs into Clarity. Or run our AI-native module: recipe-costed menus, par-driven procurement, BEO builder and inventory, with AI-assisted menu engineering and supplier scoring built around how your kitchen actually moves.

In the suite

Calm Kitchen as it lives in the platform.

The surface your front office, controller, or chef actually opens. Same context, same data, same governance — wherever they sit in the property.

What it does

Built around how
the work actually moves.

Capability 01

Bring your existing F&B stack

If you already run Apicbase, MarketMan, MarginEdge, Adaco or a similar platform, we integrate rather than migrate. Recipes, suppliers, par levels, wastage and BEOs flow into Clarity for reconciliation and into the operating layer for context. The system your chef trusts stays; the silo it created goes away.

  • Connectors for Apicbase, MarketMan, MarginEdge, Adaco
  • Recipes, suppliers and par levels reconciled into Clarity
  • Wastage attributed by shift and posted to GL
  • Optional migration path to the native module later
Capability 02

AI-native F&B implementation

If you have no F&B platform — or are ready to replace one — our native module is built around how kitchens actually move. Live recipe costing against supplier prices, par-level reorder with supplier scoring, BEO builder with full costing, line-item inventory and AI-assisted menu engineering on real data, not a hand-built spreadsheet.

  • Live recipe cost against current supplier prices
  • AI menu engineering: contribution margin × popularity
  • Par-level reorder with supplier scoring (price, lead time, OTIF)
  • BEO builder with food, beverage, labour and AV estimates
Capability 03

Inventory, wastage and variance

Line-item inventory across walk-ins, dry stores and bar — native or synced from your existing system. Wastage is categorised (bin, comp, staff meal, prep error) and attributed by shift. The variance report writes itself and posts straight to Clarity for the close.

  • Line-item inventory across every storage location
  • Wastage categorised and shift-attributed
  • Bar pour-cost and bottle-level reconciliation
  • Variance report exported to Clarity for the close
Capability 04

Allergens, dietaries and the guest profile

Allergen and dietary preferences captured at Desk or at booking flow straight to the kitchen ticket. The pass sees them. The BEO sees them. Nothing leaves the kitchen without an allergen check that survives staff turnover.

  • Allergen and dietary tags carried from the guest profile
  • Run-sheet warnings on prep cards and tickets
  • Audit trail of every override and exception
  • Banquet sheets show dietaries by cover

How it works

From signal
to outcome.

Every Calm Kitchen workflow begins as a real event in the property — and arrives in the records with its context already attached.

  1. 01

    Connect

    Plug in your existing F&B system, or stand up the native module — both join the operating layer the same way.

  2. 02

    Cost

    Recipes pull live supplier prices; menus and BEOs cost themselves on every supplier move.

  3. 03

    Cook

    Tickets land on the pass with allergens and dietaries; depletion logs against the prep card.

  4. 04

    Reconcile

    Wastage and variance roll into Clarity; menu performance feeds the next engineering review.

What changes

The operating reality,
shifted by a degree.

01

Use the tool your chef already trusts

Bring your existing F&B platform and it joins the operating layer — no migration, no rip-and-replace.

02

Menus that price themselves

Live recipe cost against the live supplier price — the engineering review is real, not a quarterly fiction.

03

A variance report that closes itself

Wastage attributed by shift, three-way match against the bank, the close lands.

Bring Calm Kitchen into the operating layer

Run F&B with the maths done in advance.

Bring the F&B system you already use, or run our AI-native module — either way, the kitchen stops living in three binders and joins the operating layer, costed, reconciled and visible to Clarity.
