About xtraCHEF:
XtraChef is a software tool that digitizes vendor invoices in real time. XC frees the user/chef of the many operational errors and misappropriated time stemming from industry-standard paper invoice processing by simply taking a picture of the vendor invoice. From there, XC reads the invoice using proprietary line-level scanning technology, stores the data in the Cloud, and provides transparency to a restaurant's real-time costs, as well as providing actionable insights including item price changes, purchase volume variances, returns, and many more. It works for single unit operators, but provides greater insights to multi-unit operators who are managing multiple outlets through comparative analytics and variance alerts.
