5-out

5-Out is a web and mobile AI forecasting and restaurant operations platform for owners, managers, and multi-unit operators who want to plan inventory, labor, and purchasing around predicted demand.

Key capabilities include:

• AI sales forecasting that predicts guest counts, revenue, and item-level demand at hourly, daily, and weekly intervals, using historical sales plus external signals like weather, local events, and traffic (claims up to 98% accuracy up to 35 days ahead).
• Automated prep lists and purchasing recommendations that translate forecasts into what to prep and what to order, including smart pars that adjust inventory levels dynamically.
• Labor forecasting and optimization to build schedules aligned to expected demand and reduce overstaffing.
• Inventory, recipe, and food-cost visibility, including on-hand tracking, usage and variance, and views into how forecasted sales and recipe costs impact food cost performance.

Pricing: Unknown.

Notable for combining forecasting plus automated operational actions (prep, purchasing, and labor) and for fast integrations with common restaurant systems such as Toast, Square, 7shifts, and Harri, along with anomaly detection to reduce forecast distortion.
