MarketMan, a leading restaurant inventory management software powered by Meal Ticket, today announced the launch of two groundbreaking AI-powered features—AI Recipe Suggestion and AI Recipe Match. These new capabilities mark the next step in MarketMan’s commitment to leveraging artificial intelligence to simplify restaurant operations, automate manual processes, and drive efficiency for foodservice operators.
“AI is revolutionizing how restaurants manage their back-of-house operations, eliminating tedious tasks and allowing operators to do more, faster,” said Wink Jones, CEO of Meal Ticket. “MarketMan’s AI-driven innovations are designed to streamline workflows, and these two new features are just the beginning of a larger roadmap of AI-powered enhancements that will continue to set the standard for restaurant management software.”
AI Recipe Suggestion
AI Recipe Suggestion leverages advanced machine learning to instantly generate a tailored ingredient list based on a restaurant’s existing inventory and sub-recipes. With just a few clicks, operators receive an AI-driven ingredient list for their selected menu item, streamlining the recipe creation process.
Operators can refine the list by adding precise ingredient quantities, with real-time calculations of total recipe costs and food costs to ensure accurate financial insights. By automating a traditionally manual and time-intensive task, this feature enhances inventory optimization and reduces operational complexity, empowering restaurants to make data-driven decisions with ease while accelerating the recipe-building process.
AI Recipe Match
AI Recipe Match leverages advanced image recognition technology to automatically read and interpret uploaded ingredient lists, instantly matching them to a restaurant’s existing inventory and sub-recipes. Operators can then fine-tune recipes by adjusting quantities and making modifications as needed.
By eliminating manual data entry, this feature drastically facilitates recipe creation while maintaining highly accurate ingredient selections. With these AI-powered tools, restaurants can streamline operations, enhance consistency, and make smarter, data-driven decisions about their menus and food costs.
MarketMan’s latest AI innovations represent just the beginning of a broader initiative to harness the power of artificial intelligence in restaurant management. With more AI-driven tools in development, MarketMan continues to push the boundaries of technology to provide restaurants with smarter, more efficient solutions for their daily operations.
“We’re just scratching the surface of what artificial intelligence can do for restaurant operators,” said John Florinis, EVP of Product at Meal Ticket. “Our team is dedicated to developing even more AI-driven tools that will continue to automate processes and reduce complexity for restaurants. This is just the beginning of an exciting new era for MarketMan and our operators.”
