The Problem

You're flying blind. And your POS isn't helping.

Your POS tells you what sold. It doesn't tell you if you made money doing it. That gap is where venues bleed.

Your P&L arrives 6 weeks late. By then, the money is already gone.

Some of your trading days are losing money. You don't know which ones.

Last night your POS rang up
$9,896
on the screen
$5,947
left after wages
Do you know that number before you open today?
What's left after discounts, GST and the real cost of your team. Your P&L won't show you for 6 weeks.

You check your POS every day. But it never tells you what to DO about what you see.

The worst part isn't the money. It's the feeling at 11pm after a quiet night, staring at your POS screen, knowing something is wrong but not knowing what. Your partner asks "are we actually making money?" and you can't answer with confidence.

What if you woke up knowing? Every morning. Before coffee.

What You Get Back

Your hours, and your head. Both back.

Every operator is short on two things: time and headspace. Briefed gives both back. It does the looking, the planning, and the calculating, so your team can be on the floor instead of in the back office.

Hours back on the floor

The hours your team spends hunting numbers, prepping the weekly meeting, and building the daily pre-shift brief: done before you open. The depth a proper study session would take hours to reach, ready before you wake. Those hours go back to service and guests, where they earn money.

The decision, made for you

Briefed doesn't hand you a dashboard to decode. It hands you the call and the why. You say yes, or ask it to walk you through. Either way the weight is off you. Reducing the load is the product, not a side effect.

Answers the moment you need them

Text it on WhatsApp any time: "what are my wages looking like tonight?" Get the number and the move. Live through service: wages running over, send two home. Quiet night, here is how to drive a covers push. In the moment, not the morning after.

The retreat and the consultant, built in

Dish margins, costed once and tracked forever. Supplier creep caught before the invoice. Your most efficient floor staff, tracked all year. Quarterly, the two-day strategy retreat done for you. Annually, a full review and a forward plan. More than ten hours of work a week, handled.

The Briefing

What lands in your inbox every morning.

The first thing your VM reads before tonight's service. Running daily on real Gold Coast venues. Receipts, not reviews.

A real Briefed daily owner brief for Maman Bar Kitchen, Saturday 6 June. Yesterday's net revenue $8,226, above breakeven at 27.7% labour, week progress $22,918 of $25,000, with the coaching line 'Sienna anchored the floor. $4,201 sales.'

Every number traces to your systems.

Revenue, covers, and loaded labour come straight from your POS, roster and accounting. The brief reads them overnight and writes the words. This is a real Maman Bar Kitchen brief. Nothing is invented. Staff names in this public example are changed for privacy. Every number is real.

Week 22 owner brief · Maman Bar Kitchen

"Bev mix at 23.0% vs 35% target. Closing the gap is $3,334/wk. Brief Rafa at Tuesday line-up on the assumptive open. If bev mix isn't above 25% by Thursday EOD, add the named cocktail pairing Saturday service."

Named person. Named day. Named fallback. Every week.

Cross-Data Intelligence

How does it know that?

Briefed connects signals across every system you connect, at once. No human catches these patterns. No dashboard shows this view.

Staff names in these examples are changed for privacy. The numbers and patterns are real.

Briefed noticed

"Rafa's Tuesdays line up with a 0.3-star Google dip, and three reviews mention slow drinks. Most likely bar speed on his shifts, not a reviews problem. Worth a quiet word before Tuesday service."

POS staff data · Google Reviews · Day-of-week pattern
Briefed noticed

"Your Friday walk-ins dropped 23% the week your Google rank slipped to position 4. Most likely visibility, not service. Worth twenty minutes on the listing before you touch the floor."

Booking data · Google Search Console · Walk-in tracking
Briefed noticed

"Your roster says labour is 32%. It's really 41.4% once super, WorkCover and payroll tax are in. That gap is $15,000 to $25,000 a year your P&L never shows. Worth pricing into your next roster."

Your venue, on WhatsApp

Text it anything. "Why was Tuesday down?" "What are my wages looking like tonight?" It has read every brief and every number your venue has, and answers on the spot.

The Moat

Every brief makes the next one smarter.

Most tools start at 100% on Day 1 and stay there. Briefed starts at 60% and compounds. By Week 12 it knows your venue better than your accountant.

Week 1

First blind spot surfaced.

The thing you couldn't see, named with a dollar. Calibration starts.

Week 4

Intelligence that remembers itself.

"We said cut Tuesday lunch labour by 3 hours. You did. Margin recovered $890."

Week 12

Knows your venue better than your accountant.

12 weeks of compounded pattern memory. Your constraint identified.

Without this: Week 12 looks exactly like Week 1.

Week 52

Cancelling feels like firing your best employee.

Every recommendation rooted in a year of your data. Irreplaceable.

"Day 1, your analyst. Year 1, your sixth sense. Every other tool starts at 100% on Day 1 and stays there. Briefed starts at 60% and compounds. That's the moat."

And we're just getting started. Today Briefed advises. Next year it acts.

A Different Category

This is not a dashboard.

You've probably tried dashboards, considered coaching, or hired consultants. They all fail for the same reason: they don't deliver intelligence to you, daily, before you start making decisions. Briefed does the thinking and delivers the answer.

The Shift

Before Briefed. After Briefed.

Before
  • 11pm. Staring at POS. "Did we actually make money today?"
  • Wait 6 weeks for your P&L to arrive.
  • Roster built on gut feel and hope.
  • No idea which trading days lose money.
  • "I think labour is around 30%."
After
  • Before you open. Text arrives. You know before you've made coffee.
  • Your partner asks how the venue's going. You answer in 10 seconds.
  • Bank meeting next week? You already have the numbers.
  • Saturday morning with the kids. Phone stays in your pocket.
  • Labour is 41.4%. And you've already fixed it.
The Cost of Not Knowing

Every week without visibility is a week you can't get back.

The patterns Briefed surfaces on a venue like yours. Examples from the Gold Coast venues it runs on.

$11,944
a year, paying a staffed hour that makes nothing

One quiet hour, two staff on, near-zero sales, week after week. You feel it's slow, but you never see it costed. It's one of a dozen small leaks Briefed finds, prices, and ranks. The real cost of your wages is another.

2-3%
Revenue lost to unprofitable trading days

Based on daily trading analysis across the venues Briefed runs on. Most had 1-2 days per week losing money once the real cost of the team is in. Those days repeated until they were made visible.

6 months
How long bad patterns compound before they show up in your P&L

Your accountant sees it quarterly, six weeks after the quarter closes. Briefed sees it tomorrow morning.

Why it exists

I built Briefed because I had my numbers. Just not all of them, not every morning, not in time to act on them. Every operator I know runs the same way. I wanted to build the thing that solved it. I did, and then a lot more.

FAQ

Common questions.

Your roster shows base wages as a percentage of sales. That's not what labour actually costs. Briefed adds superannuation (12% from 1 July 2025), WorkCover, annual leave accrual, and payroll tax to calculate your loaded labour cost. On venues Briefed runs on, the gap has run as high as 9.4 percentage points: 32% on the roster, 41.4% real. Briefed calculates this every day, automatically.

We connect to your POS (Square, Doshi, Ordermate, and more), your rostering system (Tanda), your accounting software (Xero), your booking platform (NowBookIt), and Google Reviews. We're adding more integrations all the time. If you use something we don't support yet, get in touch and we'll prioritise it.

Both. Every morning you get a WhatsApp message with your key numbers and one action. You also get a detailed email briefing with charts, comparisons, and the decisions to make. Every subscription includes weekly owner briefings, monthly owner briefings, and strategic quarterly reviews, all delivered to your inbox with a link to the full browser briefing.

Yes. When you connect Xero, we run health checks on your books, missing reconciliations, unusual categorisations, and data gaps, and flag problems early so they don't snowball.

Your first morning briefing arrives within 24-48 hours of connecting. Week 1 is calibration, the system builds your baseline. By Week 2, you're getting real insights with same-day-last-week comparisons. By Day 30, you have a full baseline with trends, benchmarks, and forward-looking predictions.

Your data sits in an isolated environment. Used only to generate YOUR briefings. Never shared. Never sold. We run this on the venues Briefed was built inside. We're as protective of your data as we are of ours.

Yes. No lock-in contracts. Cancel anytime. Your first 30 days are free. We keep customers because the product is useful, not because of a contract.

Johnny Eddings. A hospitality operator on the Gold Coast who built Briefed because he had his numbers but never all of them, every morning, in time to act. The system runs on real venues every single day. It's not a tech company guessing what operators need. It's an operator who built what he needed.

Your POS shows what sold. Briefed shows loaded labour cost, daily breakeven, day-of-week profitability, staff performance rankings, the moves to make with dollar figures, revenue predictions, and marketing ROI. One briefing tells you more than an hour in Square. And it arrives before you open the venue.
