Restaurant & hospitality analytics · Toast, Inc.

Toast

Restaurant point-of-sale platform whose reporting suite analyzes sales, labor, and menu performance from its own transaction data.

Toast is a restaurant point-of-sale and operations platform; its analytics are not a standalone analytics product but a reporting layer over the sales, labor, and menu data the POS itself captures. Reports cover sales trends by day, time of day, and course, product-mix and menu-item performance, labor cost against sales, and multi-location comparisons, customizable by date range. Because the reporting draws only on transactions run through Toast, it is strongest for operators who process most of their front- and back-of-house activity on the platform, and advanced reporting, inventory, and multi-location comparison features are add-ons on top of the base POS subscription rather than included by default. It suits single-location independents through multi-unit chains already committed to Toast hardware and payments.
