The struggle to keep accurate counts across multiple systems is draining.

Right now, tracking what you have versus what you need requires a painful dance. You open the spreadsheet for current stock levels, then jump over to the purchasing portal to see where your last order was delivered, and finally pull up an old invoice just to verify pricing. It's all clicking through tabs, cross-referencing dates, and copy/pasting numbers until you feel like you need a vacation.

With this MCP, that entire process disappears. You simply ask your agent what the inventory status is for key items. The system automatically checks current stock levels and compares them to par targets, giving you one clear answer without opening a single new tab.

MarketMan MCP gives you full visibility into ingredient costs.

Previously, determining the food cost for a dish was guesswork. You'd manually gather recipe cards, estimate portion sizes, and then cross-reference current wholesale prices from your vendors—a process that took hours and inevitably led to outdated costing.

Now, you ask the agent about a specific menu item. It uses list_recipes to pull up every ingredient quantity, calculates the cost using real vendor data, and tells you the exact food cost percentage in seconds.

What MarketMan MCP does for your AI

Need to know if you can actually open for service? This MCP connects your agent directly to the core intelligence platform that runs a restaurant. You talk to it naturally, and it pulls data on everything from stock levels to supplier history. It doesn't just tell you what you need; it helps you draft the actual purchase orders or identify recipes that are costing too much.

The entire catalog of tools is managed via Vinkius, meaning your agent can access this restaurant intelligence alongside dozens of other systems you use daily.

Whether you’re checking current stock levels against par targets, reviewing supplier details, or generating a count sheet for the day, it all happens in conversation. You get accurate data on waste events and can analyze food costs per plate instantly.
