In their own words
Marji
Marji connects supplier prices to recipe costs so independent restaurants, cafés, and bakeries can see which dishes may need attention when ingredient costs change. On the web, users upload supplier invoice photos or PDFs; Marji extracts invoice lines and suggests ingredient matches for review. Reviewed ingredient costs link to recipe quantities, portions, and yields to calculate dish costs. The Single plan includes margin alerts, pricing suggestions, and AI recipe drafts; those drafts are estimates that users should review for quantities and supplier costs. A free QR Menu plan covers one location, with a hosted menu, downloadable QR code, live price edits, and sold-out controls. Single costs $59 a month per location and includes a 14-day trial with no credit card required. Operator costs $149 a month per location and is available by invite. Square is available through OAuth for pushing approved price changes to linked items; Toast, Clover, Lightspeed, SpotOn, and TouchBistro are not built yet. Menu and cost data can be exported as CSV on any plan. Marji does not provide stock counting, accounting reconciliation, bill pay, or automatic nested batch and sub-recipe dependencies.
