About Marji

Restaurant food cost software from BlazeApps, built for independent restaurant owners.

Supplier prices can change while a menu price stays the same. Illustrative example: a $16 dish with $5 of ingredients has a 68.75% ingredient gross margin. If those ingredients rise to $6, the margin falls to 62.5%. Labor, rent and other expenses still come out of that contribution.

Marji is restaurant food cost software for independent restaurants, cafés and bakeries running one to five locations. Supplier invoice scanning connects ingredient price changes to updated recipe costs, helping operators see which dishes need a cost review. Start with one dish: check ingredient matches, quantities, units, yields and actual costs, then use new invoices to keep its cost current. A menu photo supplies dish names and selling prices; AI recipe drafts are estimates until reviewed. Operators review dish margins and price recommendations, decide what to adjust and update their register manually. No POS connection is required. The hosted QR menu stays free, while ongoing AI scanning and the margin engine require trial or paid access.

We're a small, founder-led team. The person answering support@marji.co also ships the code — which is exactly why the answers come fast and the excuses don't.

More for machines than people: llms.txt and llms-full.txt. For journalists, the press kit has boilerplate at three lengths.

The rules we hold ourselves to.

Marji never changes a price without your approval.

Every recommendation is exactly that — a recommendation, with the evidence attached. You approve it, then it moves. There is no autopilot that reprices your menu behind your back, and there never will be.

Show the math, always.

Every alert carries its reasoning in plain text: “Burger margin dropped 4pp: 52% → 48%. Beef +18% since Apr 2.” If we can't show why, we don't say it.

Your numbers stay yours.

Recipes, costs, and supplier prices are never shared with other restaurants, never sold, and never shown to your vendors. Aggregate benchmarks only ever ship as an explicit, opt-in feature.

Honest AI, checked by you.

Marji's AI reads your menus and invoices. It's fast and it's good — and it still gets a line wrong sometimes, which is why every low-confidence item is flagged for one-tap review instead of silently trusted.

See it before you sign up for it.

The demo dashboard runs on our sample bistro's numbers, and the margin calculator runs on yours.
