DishMath vs Tenzo

Its weekly menu analysis sorts dishes into Stars, Plowhorses, Puzzles, or Dogs according to popularity and margin. Listed connections include Toast, Square for Restaurants, Clover, QuickBooks Online, and Xero, as well as labor tools, supplier invoice sources, and services such as DoorDash and OpenTable. TouchBistro, Lightspeed, and Revel connections are labeled beta; CSV import is offered as a fallback. The product runs on web and provides an API, including rate-limited REST access and webhooks for agencies and accountants. Group costs $149 a month, billed month-to-month; Solo costs $199 a month, billed month-to-month. Annual billing is listed as two months free. There is no free plan, but a 14-day trial is available.
