The Platform

Everything your kitchen needs to run profitably.

Ingredient Management

Maintain a live ingredient library with up-to-date pricing. Change a price once and every recipe updates instantly.

Recipe Costing

Build recipes with exact ingredients, portions, and yield. Momentum calculates your true cost per dish automatically.

Menu Pricing

Set your target margins and let Momentum calculate the right selling price — including VAT and local levies — for every item.

Costing Sessions

Run a full menu costing session and share it with your team. Every session is saved so you can track changes over time.

Team Access & Roles

Invite your team with role-based access. Chefs, managers, and accounts each see exactly what they need.

Audit Trail

Every change is logged. Know who updated what and when — a complete, tamper-proof record of your financial data.

How It Works

From ingredients to menu price in three steps.

01

Build your ingredient library

Add your ingredients with current supplier prices. Update prices anytime and every recipe that uses them recalculates automatically.

02

Cost your recipes

Build recipes with exact quantities, yield percentages, and portion sizes. Add labour and overhead. Momentum shows you the true cost of every dish.

03

Price with confidence

Set your target food cost percentage. Momentum calculates your recommended selling price, applies the correct taxes, and tells you if your current menu is underpriced or overpriced.

Who It's For

Built for every corner of hospitality.

Restaurants

From single locations to multi-outlet groups. Cost every dish, track every margin.

Manage F&B across multiple outlets from one platform.

Cafés & Bakeries

Price your products accurately and protect your margin even as ingredient costs change.

Catering Companies

Cost events and menus quickly and accurately, every time.

Early Feedback
