Our verdict

Last verified Jun 6, 2026

Affordable, transparently-priced recipe-costing tool with strong independent reviews (4.9 on GetApp across ~17 reviews) and a genuinely useful feature ladder (costing, planning, inventory, FDA labels) plus 10,000+ customers; held back by limited POS/accounting integration and modest review volume relative to larger suites.
