Finally Know Which Dishes Are
Actually Making You Money
MarginMind™ maps every ingredient in every dish to its real cost — overhead included — so you see the true profit margin on every plate. Set up for you by the KhanaOS team.
MarginMind™ is not self-serve software.
The KhanaOS team sets it up — enters your ingredients, builds your recipes, configures your overhead.
We hand you a live dashboard that already has answers.
You just open it and make decisions.

The Dashboard — Where Losses Become Visible
The moment the owner opens MarginMind™, the alert bar is already working: '61 dishes are losing money — Special Ilish Biryani at 107% food cost, Mughlai Ilish at 102.7%.' These aren't small leaks — they're open taps. And they're named, ranked, and ready to act on. Before the day has started.

The Menu Engineering Matrix
Every dish is plotted on one chart. X-axis: food cost percentage. Y-axis: net margin. Your Stars cluster top-left — low cost, profitable. Your Dogs scatter bottom-right — expensive and loss-making. MarginMind™ generates this for your entire menu automatically, updated every time ingredient prices change.

Full Dish Cost Cards — To the Paisa
Click any dish and see: ingredient-by-ingredient recipe breakdown, wastage buffer, gas cost, overhead allocation (two methods), total fully-loaded cost, net margin, and the verdict — Star, Solid, Thin, At-Risk, or Loss. Plus the suggested price to hit your food cost target — calculated to the paisa, not the nearest hundred.

Ingredient Master with Yield Costing
Ilish costs ₹2,200/kg to buy — but after cleaning, only 65% is usable. So the effective cost per gram in your recipes isn't ₹2.20 — it's ₹3.38. MarginMind™ applies yield-adjusted effective costs to every ingredient, automatically. Most restaurant costing tools use purchase price. We use the real cost.
