Sales, food cost and labor add up from each store to its region and to the group, so you can spot the location dragging an average down.
An inbox per location
Each store forwards to its own address, so invoices land in the right place without anyone tagging them.

FAQ
Questions owners ask us.
What do I need to send?
Supplier invoices, receipts, and daily or weekly sales reports from your POS. Forward emails, attach PDFs, or snap photos of paper bills. We handle the format.
Do I have to change my POS or accounting software?
No. PRAJ.AI works alongside what you already use. If your POS emails a report, forward it to your PRAJ.AI address.
I have several locations. How does that work?
Add each location, group them by region or brand if you like, and each one gets its own inbox. You see every store on its own and the whole group combined.
How do the text alerts work?
We check your numbers every morning. When something changes that's worth your attention, you get one short text. Tap the link to open a chat about that alert.
Can my managers or accountant use it too?
Yes. Invite people and choose which locations each person can see.
What happens after the free period?
Founding businesses get a discounted rate. You'll know the price well before the alpha ends, and you can leave and take your data with you.
