About Plate Pro: Food Cost & Recipes
Know your true plate cost, on your Mac, iPhone and iPad. Plate Pro is the native Apple app for food costing. Change one supplier price and every recipe, sub-recipe and menu re-costs itself, instantly. No spreadsheets to maintain. No browser tab to babysit. No account required. THE COST CASCADE Ingredients feed your recipes. Recipes feed your menus. When an ingredient price changes, Plate Pro flows that change through everything it touches, so your food cost % and gross profit are always live and accurate. It is the one job a spreadsheet never gets right. MENU ENGINEERING See every dish plotted by popularity and profit: Stars, Plowhorses, Puzzles and Dogs, so you know what to promote, reprice or cut. Build menus from your recipes and watch the margin update live. WORK WITH AN AI ASSISTANT Connect Claude to Plate Pro on your Mac and ask about your numbers in plain language. The built-in assistant can read your suppliers, ingredients, recipes, costs, events, to-dos, notes and waste reports, and create or edit them for you, over a private local connection.
