Not a moment of magic.
Present at every moment.
OPPI is an AI operations platform that works across a hospitality venue's whole operating rhythm, planning before service, live adjustment during service, and review after close, spanning labour, inventory, tasks, checklists, forecasting, documents and compliance.
A venue runs on one loop.
Plan the day, run the day, understand the day, plan better.
Most software lives in one third of that loop. A POS sees the day as it happens. A spreadsheet sees the plan. Nothing sees all three, so nothing learns.
OPPI works the whole loop.
Planning
Before service
Tonight's roster, tomorrow's order, next week's plan. The decisions made ahead of the day, drawn from a forecast instead of a feeling.
Real-time
During service
The day as it actually happens, checked against the day as it was planned. Every figure re-read every 60 seconds.
Hindsight
After close
What the day meant. The books, the documents and the lessons, folded back into the model overnight while everyone sleeps.
It arrives already knowing your venue.
Most software starts empty and asks you to feed it.
OPPI starts by reading everything your venue has already written.
- 01
The backfill
Connect your POS and OPPI imports 18 months of your trading history. Not a sample, the whole thing, rebuilt into 15 minute windows.
- 02
The baseline
From that history it learns your venue's baseline for every quarter hour of every weekday, including what the same week looked like a year ago.
- 03
The world outside
It builds local intelligence around your address: fourteen months of your local weather history, the events calendar near you, paydays, school terms, and the roads that bring people to your door.
- 04
The calibration
Your history is then crossed with that world, and the effects are calibrated. What a rainy Tuesday costs you is measured, not assumed.
- 05
The signals
Five live signals layer onto that baseline: intraday pace, momentum, weather, calendar and local events. Each is weighted by how much it has earned your trust, so the system earns the right to make bigger calls as it proves itself.
The backfill and calibration take one to three hours. From day one you get a forecast ten days out, stretching to 46 on the long-range outlook, with an honest accuracy band that tightens as each signal calibrates.
One venue, one story.
Every dollar on this page is worked from the venue below, so you can check the arithmetic and re-run it on your own numbers.
- The venue
- A 120 cover casual restaurant, trading six days.
- Revenue
- $35,000 a week, about $1.8M a year.
- Labour
- 34% of revenue. $11,900 a week.
- Cost of goods
- 30% of revenue. $10,500 a week.
- The stack
- Square POS, cloud rostering, a shared drive, a group chat.
- Manager's rate
- $40 an hour, the rate the admin hours are valued at.
A modelled scenario, not a customer and not a promise. The arithmetic is the point: run it on your own numbers.
Before service · tonight, tomorrow, next week
The day is decided before it starts.
Most of a venue's margin is written before the doors open.
The roster you post, the order you place, the prep you brief.
OPPI writes those from a forecast instead of a feeling.
A forecast is not a guess at tomorrow's total.
OPPI projects demand in 15 minute intervals, from your own trading history crossed with weather, local events and the day of the week.
The roster and the order are then derived from that curve, so labour and stock land where the demand will actually be.
This is where the ledger's two biggest lines are won.
- 01
Labour
The roster is drafted to the demand curve, quarter hour by quarter hour. Shifts start when covers justify them and end when they stop.
$357-952/wk
- 02
Inventory
Orders are raised from the forecast and your pars, not the vibe of the walk-in. Stock arrives matched to the week that is actually coming.
$525-1,470/wk
- 03
Tasks & projects
Prep, maintenance and one-off projects are scheduled into the quiet hours the forecast can already see.
- 04
Checklists
Opening and prep lists are generated for the day being planned, sized to that day's bookings and menu.
- 05
Quiet before service. Forecasting is nowcasting's long lens.
- 06
Documents
Briefs, rosters and order sheets are drafted for you, ready to approve rather than write.
- 07
Compliance
Award rules are applied while the roster is drafted, not discovered after it has been worked.

During service · every 60 seconds
The plan is defended while it runs.
No forecast survives a wet Tuesday untouched.
Real time is where the plan meets the day.
Most venues find out at close what OPPI notices at 12:40.
A nowcast is the forecast, re-run against the day so far.
Every figure is re-checked every 60 seconds, and the projection is recut every 15 minutes at most.
When the day drifts from the plan, OPPI proposes the correction. An early cut, a pushed order, a task reassigned.
You decide. Nothing changes in your systems without your approval.
- 01
Nowcasting
Revenue, covers, labour and pace, read against where the model said they would be by now. Drift gets a cause and a proposal, not just a red number.
- 02
Labour
Compounds the planning line. When trade runs under the curve, OPPI proposes the early cut while it still saves money.
- 03
Inventory
An 86 risk is flagged while there is still time to push a substitution rather than make an apology.
- 04
Tasks & projects
Quiet minutes get filled. The right task reaches the right person, scored on role, zone and capacity.
- 05
Checklists
Service checks fire at the moment they matter, and chase themselves up.
- 06
Quiet during service. The paperwork can wait for Hindsight.
- 07
Compliance
Breaks, minors' hours and licence conditions are watched live, so a busy night cannot quietly become a violation.

$882-2,422/wk
Real time defends the plan's numbers. It does not add new ones.
After close · overnight
The day is understood after it ends.
The most valuable hour of a venue's day happens while everyone is asleep.
OPPI closes the day, reads it, and folds what it learned back into the model.
Hindsight becomes tomorrow's foresight.
While the venue sleeps, OPPI reads the day back. Takings against the forecast, spend against the plan, hours against the roster.
It proposes what the day should change about its beliefs. Rain cut lunch again. The new dish runs slow.
Those proposals queue for your one-tap approval in the morning.
This is where the admin hours come back.
- 01
Documents
End of day reports, weekly summaries and supplier emails write themselves overnight. The admin hours return to the floor.
$160-360/wk
- 02
Inventory
Closes the cost of goods line. The day's spend is read back against the plan, so cost creep gets a number before it compounds.
- 03
Labour
Actual hours are reconciled against the plan, and the variance becomes next week's sharper roster.
- 04
Tasks & projects
What slipped today is rescheduled, not rediscovered. Projects advance a step every quiet day.
- 05
Checklists
Completion is audited, and the lists themselves evolve. Steps that never mattered are retired.
- 06
Quiet after close. The nowcast's lessons are already in the model.
- 07
Compliance
The day's records file themselves, so an auditor's question becomes an export, not an archaeology dig.

Each line runs from a deliberately conservative low to the full headline figure. Where your venue lands depends on how much of the mechanism your week actually contains.
Modelled on the venue above. Illustrative arithmetic, not a measurement and not a promise.
Forecasts arrive from day one with an honest accuracy band, and the band tightens as each signal calibrates against your venue.
When does which part arrive?
Four honest numbers describe four maturities of one system.
15 minutes
Is it connected?
One sign-in to the tills and tools you already run. A working model of your venue exists the same afternoon.
Day one
Is it useful?
OPPI imports 18 months of your trading history and calibrates weather, calendar and event effects against it, within one to three hours. It arrives already knowing your quiet Tuesdays.
Weeks one and two
Is it trusted?
Week one, it listens. Week two, it speaks up. Forecasts, staffing calls and overnight reviews start arriving for your approval.
About six weeks
Is it sharp?
Six weeks of trading history is enough for a proper baseline. From there the model works from your venue's own record, not anyone's averages.
- What ROI can venue AI deliver?
- OPPI models labour cost down 3 to 8%, cost of goods down 5 to 14%, and 4 to 9 admin hours returned weekly. On a $35,000 a week venue that works out between $1,042 and $2,782 a week. Modelled arithmetic, not a measurement.
- What does AI actually do in a venue, day to day?
- It plans before service, watches during it, and reviews after close. Rosters and orders are drafted from a 15 minute demand forecast, the live day is re-checked every 60 seconds, and the books, reports and lessons are handled overnight.
- How does OPPI know my venue on day one?
- On connection it imports 18 months of your trading history, rebuilds it into 15 minute windows, and calibrates weather, calendar and local event effects against it. The backfill and calibration take one to three hours.
- Are these outcome figures guaranteed?
- No. They are modelled on one realistic venue, shown as ranges from a deliberately conservative low to the full figure. Nothing on this page is a measurement or a promise; the arithmetic is shown so you can run it on your own numbers.
- Does OPPI make changes without approval?
- No. OPPI proposes, you decide. Every action is scored on confidence and consequence, and anything that matters waits for a one-tap approval. You can extend trust over time, and withdraw it at any time.
- What does OPPI need to start?
- A cloud point of sale and one sign-in. Square and Lightspeed connect today. Setup takes about 15 minutes, OPPI then imports 18 months of your trading history on its own, and there is no new hardware and no downtime.
The rhythm runs either way. The question is whether anything is watching it.
