Optimize Your Food Margins with WISK
Imagine you're selling a chicken fajita and making a $9.13 profit per order. Now, what if your supplier increased their costs, and your profit dropped to just $5 without you realizing it? You’d still be selling at the same price but losing money. With WISK, this won’t happen. By scanning your invoices, WISK updates your costs in real-time.
If a cost change occurs, you’ll get an alert, so you can decide whether to adjust your pricing. This ensures your margins stay intact and your business remains profitable. Real-time cost tracking means you’ll always know the exact cost of your ingredients, keeping your profits secure with every chicken fajita sold!
Get an idea of how WISK notifies you whenever an item cost goes up

Thanks to WISK's cost alerts, you’re notified in real-time, enabling you to adjust your price and prevent $6,000 in losses.

If there’s a cost change, you’ll get notified instantly, allowing you to adjust your pricing and maintain your margins. Real-time tracking ensures your margarita costs and pricing stay accurate, so you can confidently keep your $11.11 profit intact for every glass sold!
