The old way vs. The Neat Profit

Spreadsheets don't catch shrinkage.

Behind most bars, today

  • Counting bottles on a clipboard, guessing partial pours by eye
  • Costing drinks once a year, if ever
  • Finding out you're out of well tequila mid-Friday rush
  • Noticing shrinkage in the P&L, three months too late

Behind the bar, with The Neat Profit

  • Count on your phone in seconds, ounce by ounce, offline or not
  • Every recipe costed automatically as vendor prices shift
  • Suggested par levels and one-tap orders before you run dry
  • Variance flagged the day it happens, synced straight from your POS

From behind the bar

Tasting notes from teams running on The Neat Profit.

โ€œWe found a keg line pouring almost a full case light a week before it ever showed up in the P&L. The Neat Profit paid for itself in the first month.โ€

Bar Director, coastal hotel group
โ€œRecipe costing used to be a spreadsheet nobody trusted. Now it updates itself every time a distributor changes a price.โ€

GM, four-unit gastropub group
โ€œCounting used to eat a Sunday morning. Now it's twenty minutes on a phone, and I actually believe the numbers.โ€
