Metafoodx, an AI-powered kitchen intelligence platform, has launch its iOS app, giving kitchen managers and chefs real-time access to their operation’s data from anywhere in the venue.
Until now, checking consumption trends, overproduction or scan activity meant returning to a desk or dashboard. The Metafoodx app moves that same data onto a phone, so decisions that used to wait can happen on the floor, during service, when they matter most.
“Kitchen managers shouldn’t have to step away from the floor to know what’s happening in their operation,” said Fengmin Gong, CEO and co-founder of Metafoodx. “The app puts that information right in their hands so they can catch a scanning gap or a high-demand item running low before it becomes a bigger problem.”
The app is organized around four areas of the kitchen manager’s day:
- Home, for an at-a-glance view of consumption and overproduction across venues, plus recent scanning activity.
- Live View, showing real-time, menu-item level consumption and overproduction, filterable by cost or volume.
- Scan Log, a real-time feed of individual scans for quick quality checks on the line.
- Manage, for downloading and sharing reports directly from a phone.
The app displays live, same-day data, built for use during service rather than after it.
“It’s nice that you have this so quickly at your fingertips as you’re walking around or you’re down in the office. I can just pull it up quickly,” said Pete Allard, Assistant Manager of Hampshire Dining Commons at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.
Kitchen managers can download the app by searching “Metafoodx” in the App Store. Existing Metafoodx credentials work to sign in, including single sign-on for teams already using SSO. The Android version will be available soon.
