How it works

From raw transactions to action-ready clarity.

Four steps. Zero dashboard fatigue.

The problem

Your menu is making decisions for you. Most of them are wrong.

By the time you check the numbers, the damage is done. Ingredient costs crept up. A $22 entrée is underwater. That “popular” appetizer is quietly dragging your margin - and you had no idea for three months.

The solution

Three axes of intelligence. One clear answer.

Traditional menu engineering uses two dimensions. RevenArc adds the third - guest experience - so every recommendation is financially smart and experience-aware.

Axis 01 · Financial

What makes money

Contribution margin and mix, computed continuously from your sales data. True margin where item costs exist, stated honestly where they do not.

  • Star / Plowhorse / Puzzle / Dog classification
  • Drift alerts when item economics move
  • Estimated dollar impact per recommendation
Axis 02 · Demand

What guests order

Volume, mix percentage, day-part patterns, and category performance - who orders what, and when.

  • Day-part and service-period trends
  • Category and mix analysis
  • Seasonal and trend signals
Axis 03 · Experience

What guests feel

Guest-experience signals surfaced from public reviews, by day-part and channel - so you can see friction and delight, not just numbers.

  • Experience context on every recommendation
  • Friction and delight patterns by day-part
  • See how experience signals move alongside revenue over time

How it works

Connect your POS. See your menu classified once the source data finishes loading.

No integrations to build. No consultants to hire. We load available history on connect and keep the source current after that.

Step 1~10 minutes

Connect your POS

Connect Square live and we load the transaction history available through that source, then keep the feed current after that. On another system? Drop in a CSV export and we take it from there.

On connectonce data finishes loading

Your menu is classified

The moment your data finishes loading, RevenArc backfills available history and classifies every item against a 60-day trailing window. Stars stay protected, Plowhorses get repricing review, Puzzles get promotion review, and Dogs get retirement review.

Right aftermorning brief

Decision Cards arrive

Specific recommendations with estimated dollar impact: “Raise Fish Tacos $1.50 → about +$450/month. Experience signal: guests consistently praise this item.” Each card explains why it’s a safe move.

Ongoingact & track

Act, then watch what happens

Accept a card, make the change, and RevenArc tracks the outcome - did covers hold, did revenue move, did guest sentiment shift? Real numbers, no guessing. Over time you can see how your experience signals move alongside revenue.

Actionable output

Decision Cards with dollar amounts. Not dashboards.

A spreadsheet tells you the burger is a Plowhorse. RevenArc tells you guests consistently rate it highly, perceive strong value, and likely won’t flinch at $1.50 more - then tracks whether the change worked. Every recommendation comes with a specific action, an estimated impact, and the guest-experience context behind it.

REPRICE★ STAR

Raise Fish Tacos $1.50

Current $16.00 → Suggested $17.50
Experience signal: strong. Guests consistently praise the Fish Tacos; “generous” and “fresh” recur in reviews. Comparable items locally run $18-21.
Estimated impact: $280 to $620 a month
Why it’s likely safe: perceived value sits above the current price, and demand is steady across day-parts. We’ll track covers and sentiment after you change it.

AI assistant

Ask your data anything. Grounded, never guessed.

Every answer is built from your venue’s actual numbers. If the data isn’t there, the assistant says so - it never invents a figure, and it never reports on individual staff.

Operator
Which items had the biggest margin drift last week?
RevenArc
Two items moved most: Chicken Wings (margin compressed 18% as wing cost rose) and the House Margarita (pour cost up 6%). Both crossed the drift threshold recently - want the reprice options?
Operator
Who’s my best server?
RevenArc · declined
RevenArc doesn’t track or rank individual staff - by design, there’s no data that ties performance to a person. I can show results by section, day-part, or service period instead.

Our boundaries

Some lines we never cross.

RevenArc is built on a simple belief: guests don’t want value extracted from them - they want to feel served. These constraints are enforced at the database level, not in a policy doc.

No employee surveillance

We never track, grade, or rank individual servers or bartenders. There is no data structure that can tie a metric to a person. Insights are aggregated by section and day-part.

No guest PII stored

We store zero guest personal information. Transactions are anonymized and correlated at the product level. Review data is public.

No hotel or PMS tools

RevenArc is built strictly for food-and-beverage operators. No lodging software, no property management, no front-desk analytics. Menu-first, always.
