Demand insights without a POS connection
Most restaurant tools start with an integration. ForeShift starts with your address.
A short list in, an outlook out.
You provide
- Your restaurant’s address
- Your concept type
- Your operating hours
Setup takes about thirty seconds.
ForeShift brings
- The week’s weather forecast
- Nearby sports, concerts, tradeshows, festivals and 5Ks
- A demand signal per event for your part of the city
- Context for your concept type and area
Why no connection is needed.
The outlook is about demand in your area — how busy a concept like yours is expected to be in your part of the city, given the weather and what is happening nearby. That doesn’t depend on your till, so there is nothing to install, no access to grant and no waiting on an integration.
It also means the outlook is not a prediction of your own sales. Read it as context for your plan, alongside what your team already knows about your regulars and your room.
Optional: bring your own history.
If you want more, the Sales Forecasting plan accepts a POS export or CSV of your historical data. With it you get a thirty-day forward revenue projection and a view of predicted versus actual. It is a file you upload — there is no live connection to your POS — and it is never required to see your demand outlook.
