Every morning, real market prices flow into your platform on their own. Your recipes recalculate, your margins update, and you decide with data — not the price from three weeks ago.

Chicken can jump 15% in a week. If you're costing with month-old prices, your real margin isn't what you think — and you find out after you've already closed the month in the red.
Manual costings nobody updates, menus planned without knowing whether ingredients went up, and reports that take days to put together. Every decision arrives late.
| Ingredient | Your spreadsheet | Market today | Δ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chicken breast | $11,800/kg | $13,600/kg | +15.3% |
| Potato | $2,400/kg | $2,950/kg | +22.9% |
| Tomato | $3,800/kg | $3,100/kg | −18.4% |
| White rice | $4,200/kg | $4,260/kg | +1.4% |
Your wholesale market's daily bulletins process themselves. No typing, no scanning, no paying someone to copy prices.
Óptimo calculates the actual gross quantity you buy (not just the net amount on the plate) and, when an ingredient's price spikes, suggests substitutes with nutritional equivalence and estimated savings.
Every menu shows its nutritional contribution per portion — calories, protein, carbohydrates, fat and fiber — validated against your program's standards by age group. Reports come out as PDFs with logo and signatures, ready for the contracting authority.
Machine learning models trained on your market's real price history project prices up to 30 days out. With per-warehouse inventory, cost centers and integrated purchase orders, buying stops being guesswork.
Ingredients, net quantities and waste %. Our team walks you through the initial load so you start with your full menu cycle ready.

From the official daily bulletin of your city's wholesale market — Corabastos in Bogotá, and progressively other wholesale markets across Latam. Óptimo processes them automatically every morning, with nothing for you to type in.
Waste is what's lost when preparing an ingredient (bone, skin, peel). Óptimo calculates the actual gross quantity you need to buy from the net quantity that reaches the plate, so your cost reflects kitchen reality, not paper theory.
