Maya by Inputly is an AI restaurant management platform that connects sales, recipes, stock and purchasing to forecast demand and manage inventory and food cost. It tracks ingredient stock, flags low stock, recommends reorder points and follows expiry by perishable lot. Recipes connect menu items to ingredients, with forecast sales translated into ingredient demand using batch yields and unit conversions. Maya can draft supplier purchase orders based on demand, stock on hand and in transit, supplier lead times and pack sizes; approved orders can be emailed to verified suppliers. Forecasts use restaurant sales history and take account of calendars, holidays, paydays, weather and local events. Proposed actions require approval, and listed controls include role-based access, audit trails, reversible actions and a kill switch. POS connections include Square, Toast, TouchBistro, Clover, SeroPOS and Lightspeed, alongside a REST API and webhooks. Maya is available on web, Android, iOS, macOS and Windows. It is paid, with pricing listed from $249/mo, and has no free plan.
