The client approached us with the challenge of building a universal analytics platform for restaurants that would unify fragmented data from multiple systems (POS, inventory, procurement, CRM, online ordering) and transform it into actionable business insights. The goal was to empower restaurant owners, managers, and chefs to make data-driven decisions — from sales forecasting and procurement optimization to guest loyalty analysis and food waste reduction
As a solution, we built a unified platform that consolidates all restaurant data into a single core, powered by four components: the Insight Hub for centralized analytics across sales, procurement, inventory, and customers; Decision Intelligence with ML models for forecasting, optimization, pricing, and anomaly detection; the Aziz Virtual Assistant, a conversational chatbot enabling natural-language interaction; and Restaurant Workspaces, tailored dashboards for cafés, QSRs, cloud kitchens, central kitchens, and fine dining
We empowered a restaurant chain to become more profitable and sustainable by turning their data into a strategic asset. Our solution reduced procurement costs by 15-20% through accurate demand forecasting and cut food waste by up to 20%. On the revenue side, it drove a 12% average sales increase via dynamic menu optimization. Furthermore, it accelerated critical decision-making from hours to seconds by replacing manual spreadsheets with an intelligent, conversational AI


Successfully built, tested, and launched a comprehensive analytics solution in one quarter
Integrated all data sources into a single source
Enabled managers to get immediate, conversational answers instead of manual reports
Built a platform that seamlessly supports the unique data formats of any restaurant


After gathering the requirements, we built a robust architecture consisting of a Data Foundation Layer, an ETL framework based on Apache Beam and Google Dataflow that ingests data from various restaurant APIs and consolidates it in a BigQuery warehouse. On top of this, we developed a FastAPI backend serving as the core API layer for the frontend and integrations, and an analytics engine powered by ML models on Vertex AI to deliver recommendations and demand forecasts across sales and inventory. The frontend dashboards, built in React, power the Insight Hub and Restaurant Workspaces, while a FastAPI-based chatbot service leveraging the Agent Development Kit (ADK) enables natural, conversational interaction with restaurant data. Finally, the entire solution was deployed as a fully cloud-native system on Google Cloud, ensuring scalability, reliability, and seamless performance
