Problem
Restaurants often lose margin on deliveries because manual receipt verification is error‑prone, leading to mismatched quantities, incorrect prices, swapped items, and unreviewed invoices. These discrepancies go unnoticed until they affect cost of goods sold, making it difficult to enforce negotiated terms and assess supplier performance.
Solution
Estoca.ai provides a mobile application that digitizes the receipt verification process for restaurant supply chains. The app captures delivery data, automatically matches each line item to the negotiated price list, and flags any quantity or price deviations in real time. It learns the naming conventions of each location, handling variations in item descriptions and performing automatic unit conversions without manual mapping. When a discrepancy is detected, the system sends instant notifications to the purchasing team for rapid resolution. Over time, the platform aggregates verified receipt data to generate operational insights on supplier compliance, cost variance, and margin leakage, turning every delivery into actionable intelligence.
Target Audience
Primary customers are multi‑unit restaurant operators and their purchasing departments that need accurate, scalable receipt verification across dozens of locations.
