Stop bleeding margin on every ticket.
Vespro sits over the POS, invoice, prep, and schedule stream you already run — then turns food cost, labor load, and vendor variance into one nightly brief for the next daypart. Find the exception while it is still fixable, not after the month closes.

Sample ticket · lunch daypart
An $11.80 bowl can look busy and still leak margin before lunch is over.
What you should act on
- Review the chicken substitution before the next lunch delivery lands.
- Move the prep handoff before the 11:00–14:00 labor peak.
- Share the vendor exception with every unit carrying the same bowl.
What it carries
The four places QSR margin moves before anyone notices.
Fast service hides small decisions inside a lot of volume. Vespro gives operators a single morning loop for the food cost, labor, vendor, and unit-level exceptions that quietly change what each ticket contributes.
- 28–32% food cost
Tight menu economics
See plate-margin drift before the menu gets busy.
At 28–32% food-cost menus, a small yield or portion change can erase the contribution your best-selling ticket was supposed to make. Vespro traces the drift to recipe, ingredient, and substitution level.
- Daypart labor
Lean labor
Schedule around prep, open/close, and the dayparts that actually move.
Read labor load beside ticket volume instead of treating payroll as a weekly total. The brief surfaces where prep, open/close, or a quiet handoff is taking more margin than it should.
- Vendor exceptions
Vendor variance
Catch substitutions while the volume is still salvageable.
A high-volume vendor change compounds quickly across every ticket. Rank variance by item, supplier, and unit so a chicken, oil, or packaging exception gets an answer before the next delivery.
- Unit consistency
Multi-unit consistency
Give every unit the same exception loop.
The best operator in unit 3 should not be the only person who knows why Tuesday moved. Vespro turns local exceptions into a shared rhythm for area leads, GMs, and kitchen teams across the group.
Tier fit
Pick the Vespro tier that matches your operating shape.
QSR operators do not need another per-seat dashboard. Match the brief to the shape of the kitchen: one location, a multi-unit fast-casual group, or a regional chain.
The capturable plans and current prices live on /pricing; Enterprise / Corporate is sized by operating surface.
Tier 01
Single-location QSR
Vespro RestaurantThe daily-service tier for one unit: ticket-level menu engineering, ingredient cost movement, and a nightly operating brief. Capturable on the /pricing page — from $299/mo, or $2,990/yr annual.
Tier 02
Multi-unit fast-casual
Vespro HotelsThe existing multi-outlet and rollup tier for operators running several fast-casual units: shared procurement signal, unit-level margin briefs, and a group view. Capturable on the /pricing page — from $499/mo, or $4,990/yr annual.
Tier 03
Regional chains
Vespro Enterprise / CorporateFor regional chains that need multi-brand rollup, named strategists, and an operating surface sized to units, currencies, integrations, and governance — not seats.
Editorial signal
The useful question arrives before lunch.
The operator signal is simple: find the ticket, shift, or vendor line that started eroding the week while there is still a daypart left to change it.
From the line
“I want to know which ticket, shift, or vendor line started eroding the week before lunch — not after the month closes.”
Anonymous fast-casual operator
Vespro is built for the handoff between the numbers and the next service window — when an operator can still make the margin move.
