Hey Product Hunt 👋
I kept seeing the same problem: most food costing tools assume you already have a written recipe with exact ingredient quantities. But talk to any working kitchen and most don't — recipes live in a chef's head, prices get set by gut feel or copying a competitor's menu.
That's what got me building MenuPricer. The first version just did food cost math from manual ingredient entry — useful, but it still required someone to sit down and write out a full recipe first, which is exactly the step most owners skip.
The real shift came when I flipped the starting point: instead of asking for a recipe, just ask for a dish name. AI drafts a starting ingredient list and cost estimate, the owner corrects whatever's off, and they get 3 pricing tiers plus delivery platform markup in under a minute — no blank recipe card to fill out first.
Free for your first 5 dishes, no credit card. Would love feedback, especially from anyone running a restaurant, café, bakery, food truck, or catering business without a dedicated finance team — that's exactly who this was built for.
