HOSPITALITY INTELLIGENCE
Know your numbers. Know your market. Decide with confidence.
Every week, a hospitality operator makes pricing, menu, and marketing decisions worth real money — usually on instinct, because the data lives in a dozen places nobody has time to read. Blackfrog reads it for you. Two working products, one surface: RestaurantIQ turns your own operating data into a ranked, dollar-quantified list of what to fix, and Footprint reads your whole competitive market and re-audits it every week. Built for restaurants. Built for resorts running many outlets at once. Your judgment stays in charge of every decision.
01 / RESTAURANTIQ
Find the profit leaking out of your own numbers.
You know something’s off — margins thinner than the volume says they should be — but the evidence is scattered across point-of-sale exports, vendor invoices (a CSV or a photo), payroll, and recipe cards. RestaurantIQ normalizes all of it into one model, and then code, not guesswork, computes the findings: vendor price creep, popular items priced below margin, purchasing that quietly outruns the recipes — a weekly, ranked list of profit leaks in dollars. Every finding shows the exact data behind it, estimates are labeled as estimates, and nothing the AI reads enters the books until you confirm it. It runs where an operator actually works: on your phone. Monday morning, you open it and know exactly which three things to fix first.

02 / RESORTS & MULTI-OUTLET F&B
One property. Many menus. One picture.
A resort GM’s F&B problem isn’t one restaurant — it’s the signature dining room, the casual grill, the turn stands, banquets, and pro-shop F&B, each with its own menu, price points, and margin story. Nobody on property has time to cross-read all of them, so pricing drifts outlet by outlet and the whole property’s position goes unmanaged. The same intelligence that reads one restaurant is built to read all of them: every outlet in one model, priced and positioned against a competitive set that’s honest about how guests actually choose — not just the resort down the road, but the restaurants in town they compare your dining room against every time they decide whether to eat on property. You get one property-wide answer to “where are we leaving money?” instead of five partial ones.

03 / FOOTPRINT
See your market the way your guests do.
Your competitors publish their menus, prices, reviews, and promotions in public — but the picture is scattered across so many surfaces that “where do we stand?” usually gets answered with a shrug. Footprint audits your entire digital presence and every competitor’s — website, listings, reviews, search visibility, ads, page performance — scores each business across seven categories, and re-audits the whole set every week so the picture never goes stale. It even checks the newest question in hospitality marketing: when a guest asks an AI assistant where to eat, are you the answer? A human reviews every machine finding before it reaches you — what lands on your desk is a prioritized worklist, not a data dump.

/ THE DISCIPLINE
Numbers you can bet the property on.
Code does the math.
Every margin, variance, and score is computed by deterministic code — the same inputs always produce the same answer. The AI never invents a number; if a figure is an estimate, it says so on the label.
AI reads the messy inputs.
Invoices, recipe cards, competitor menus, review pages — the reading no operator has time for. What it extracts is labeled, sourced, and confirmed by a person before it counts.
You stay the decision-maker.
The system makes the case with evidence; you make the call on every price, every menu, every campaign. That’s how we amplify an operator’s expertise and redeploy it to the decisions that matter. No staff displaced.
Both products run in production today, not on a roadmap — RestaurantIQ in a live pilot with a family-owned bakery-café, Footprint as the engine behind our own weekly market audits. The numbers on this page come from those systems, not projections. No staff displaced. How it works in a real kitchen → · See the platform →
Your market is already publishing its numbers. Start reading them.
Bring one outlet or a whole property — a POS export, a stack of invoices, or just the name of the competitor that worries you. We’ll point the platform at your real data and your real competitive set and show you what it finds — in dollars, with the evidence attached.
Practical AI for small and mid-sized business. Working products, verified numbers, and your experts in charge of every decision.
