The manager's table
Find the dishes that really make you money.
Rasansh sorts every dish by how well it sells and how much it earns per plate. Then it suggests what to do next about pricing, portions and promotion. You decide. Nothing changes until you approve it.
Paneer Tikka
Top seller, food cost 41%. Try 7 pieces instead of 8, or move to ₹320.
about ₹18,400 more margin a monthMushroom Tikka
Food cost 24% but few orders. Place it beside Paneer Tikka and suggest it to waiters.
Veg Manchurian
Slow and low margin for 4 weeks. Review the recipe or rest it next menu.
Suggestions only. Prices and menus change when you approve.
At 10 pm the rush eases. The owner sits at the corner table with a cup of chai and sees it plainly: Paneer Tikka sells the most and earns the least. Mushroom Tikka earns well and almost nobody orders it.

How the AI behaves
- Menu suggestions are advice for the owner. Rasansh never changes prices or menus on its own.
- Recipe and food cost data stay private to your restaurant.
- Customer phone numbers for bills or loyalty are collected with consent and used only by your restaurant.
- Food safety and licensing remain the restaurant's responsibility. Rasansh helps keep the records.
- Restaurant data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and is never sold.
FAQ
AI Menu Engineer, answered
Straight answers to what restaurant owners ask before they switch billing software.
Does the AI change menu prices?
No. It suggests, you decide. Prices and menus change only when someone with owner or manager rights approves the change.
How much data does it need?
Two to four weeks of sales and costed recipes for your main dishes. Suggestions get sharper as more weeks come in.
Is our data used to train models for others?
No. Your sales, recipes and costs stay private to your restaurant and are never sold.
