Ghost-kitchen operator tool
Put the labor behind your dashboards into a clearer scenario.
For operators coordinating multiple virtual brands, dashboard work can be hard to see as one operating cost. Enter your brands, weekly orders, weekly dashboard labor, and an editable blended hourly value to explore what a partial recovery of that time could be worth. The math runs in your browser; no signup is needed to use it.

The live model
Four operator inputs. A transparent labor read.
The calculator keeps aggregate dashboard hours as the baseline. Brand count and weekly orders provide operating context, while the editable labor value makes the dollar read explicit instead of hiding it behind a generic benchmark.
Live scenario
Adjust the four operator inputs below. The results update in your browser and stay tied to the dashboard labor hours you entered — they are never multiplied by brand count.

Illustrative recovery rate: 25% of dashboard labor time.
This fixed assumption is a modeling choice, not a typical or guaranteed result. Your scenario is directional, not a forecast: it excludes revenue lift, food cost, platform fees, implementation cost, and operator-specific variance.
Read the result carefully
Useful as a conversation starter, not a forecast.
The recovery rate is intentionally visible: this scenario assumes that 25% of the dashboard labor hours you enter could be reclaimed. That is a fixed illustrative assumption, not a claim about what is typical or guaranteed for your kitchen.
The weekly and monthly values translate that potentially reclaimed time through the blended hourly value you choose. Orders per brand are context only; they do not inflate the labor calculation by multiplying hours by brand count.
This directional scenario excludes revenue lift, food cost, platform fees, implementation cost, and operator-specific variance. Your result may differ based on workflow, staffing, marketplace mix, and how much of the work is actually recoverable.
