Why Choose Us
Let's be honest, running a ghost kitchen means juggling recipes, suppliers, and tight delivery windows without a central hub for your team's know-how. Here's the thing: our automated knowledge base ingests your docs, emails, and shift notes, then organizes everything into an AI-driven system tailored to your workflow. You're probably thinking, 'Will this fit our unique setup?' Absolutely—we build it custom, from scratch, so it pulls up exact portion sizes for your viral poke bowl or quick fixes for that finicky oven, saving you from the daily scramble.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Time and Cost Wins That Scale with Your Kitchen
Slash Weekly Lookup Time by 15 Hours
Slash Weekly Lookup Time by 15 Hours: No more digging through binders or group chats for recipe tweaks or supplier contacts during dinner rush. Our system delivers instant answers, like pulling up the exact spice ratios for your signature pad thai or emergency vendor phone for fresh herbs, freeing your team to focus on plating orders and hitting 30-minute delivery SLAs. That's real ROI—less overtime and faster throughput with reduced food waste.
Boost Productivity with 30% Fewer Order Errors
Boost Productivity with 30% Fewer Order Errors: Picture this: a new line cook instantly accesses allergen protocols for nut-free substitutions or packaging standards for hot soups, avoiding mix-ups that could tank your Yelp ratings. We quantify the gains—clients see error rates drop from 12% to 8%, leading to happier customers, fewer $50 refunds, all while cutting manual double-checks that eat into your 20% margins on entrees.
Achieve 2x Faster Onboarding for Seasonal Hires
Achieve 2x Faster Onboarding for Seasonal Hires: Ghost kitchens ramp up fast for events like Super Bowl weekend, but training shouldn't be a bottleneck. Our custom base turns weeks of shadowing into days of self-service learning, with tailored guides for your commercial dishwasher cycles or FIFO inventory rotation. The result? Your team hits peak efficiency sooner, reducing training costs by up to 50% from $500 per hire and keeping operations humming without service dips.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our ghost kitchen lost hours every shift chasing down sauce recipes for our birria tacos or vendor specs for halal beef suppliers—it was total chaos during the 6-9 PM dinner rushes. Now, the knowledge base pulls everything up in seconds, and we've cut prep errors by half, saving us about 12 hours a week and $200 in weekly ingredient waste. No joke, it's a game-changer."
Maria Gonzalez
Operations Lead at Urban Eats Ghost Kitchen
"We were buried in emails about delivery protocols for Uber Eats handoffs and inventory tweaks for our weekly vegan specials rotation. After implementing their custom system, my team finds info instantly, and onboarding a new prep cook took just two days instead of a full week—now we're cranking out 200 orders a night without hiccups. It's transformed our efficiency and cut our refund rate by 25%."
Raj Patel
Head Chef at Phantom Flavors Delivery Co.
"Handling allergens and compliance was a nightmare with scattered notes—one wrong lookup on gluten-free protocols could mean a $10,000 health department fine or lawsuit. This automation organizes it all perfectly for our high-volume setup, with quick searches for cross-contamination checklists, and we've seen a real drop in compliance issues from 5 incidents a month to zero. Worth every penny for the peace of mind and uninterrupted service."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this knowledge base handle our unique ghost kitchen recipes without generic templates?
We start by auditing your exact recipes, portion sizes, and variations—like your signature ramen tweaks or vegan adaptations. Our AI then builds a custom index that understands your lingo, pulling up precise info without fluff. It's not a one-size-fits-all; we tailor it to your multi-concept setup, ensuring quick access during prep rushes. Clients see 15-hour weekly savings because it eliminates manual flips through notebooks. Plus, it updates automatically as your menu evolves, keeping everything fresh without extra work from you.
What about integrating with our existing POS and inventory systems?
Integration is our sweet spot. We connect directly to tools like Toast or Square, so when a order comes in, the system surfaces relevant prep notes or allergen flags instantly. No more switching apps mid-shift. For inventory, it syncs stock data to suggest adjustments, like scaling down on overstocked herbs. This cuts errors by 30% for most ghost kitchens we work with, and setup takes just a couple weeks. You're getting a unified flow that feels native to your operations, boosting efficiency without the hassle of brittle plugins.
How secure is this for sensitive info like supplier deals or proprietary recipes?
Security is non-negotiable in food service, especially with competitive edges like your secret sauce formulas. We use enterprise-level encryption and role-based access, so only authorized staff see supplier pricing or exclusive recipes. Data stays on your servers or our secure cloud, compliant with standards like GDPR if needed. We've helped kitchens protect IP during high-stakes launches, and audits show zero breaches. It's built to scale securely as your team grows, giving you peace of mind while reclaiming time from manual safeguards.
Can it really save us 15 hours a week, and how do you measure that?
Absolutely, and we back it with numbers. In a typical ghost kitchen, teams waste time on lookups for things like packaging specs or shift handoffs—our system cuts that by providing AI-powered answers in seconds. We track it via usage logs: pre-launch baseline, then post-implementation metrics show hours reclaimed, like 10-20 per week for a 15-person crew. One client, a multi-ghost operator, reported exact ROI after three months: $5K in reduced overtime. It's tailored, so your savings match your workflow's chaos level.
What's the timeline for getting this up and running in our kitchen?
We move fast but thorough—discovery takes 1-2 weeks to map your needs, build and integrate in 4-6 weeks, then testing and launch in another 1-2. Total: about 2 months to full efficiency. During this, your ops run uninterrupted; we even provide interim tools. For a busy ghost kitchen, this means minimal downtime, with quick wins like recipe search automation rolling out early. We've launched for similar setups in under 8 weeks when urgency hits, ensuring you're saving time before the next peak season.
Will this work for our seasonal menu changes and multiple brands under one roof?
Ghost kitchens thrive on flexibility, and our system is designed for it. We structure the knowledge base modularly, so swapping in seasonal items—like holiday specials or pop-up concepts—means simple updates that propagate across recipes and protocols. It handles multi-brand ops by segmenting info, e.g., vegan line vs. comfort food, with cross-references to avoid overlaps. Teams report 40% faster adaptations, reducing launch errors. It's all custom-built to your rhythm, evolving as you pivot without rebuilding from scratch.
