The Dashboard Build
Most owners run their business on a POS report, a bookkeeping export, three spreadsheets, and a feeling. The Dashboard Build replaces that with one screen that tells you, every morning, how the business is doing.
What we build
- Live pulls from your real systems: POS, QuickBooks or your bookkeeper’s exports, scheduling tools, inventory sheets, e-commerce platforms.
- The numbers that drive your decisions: daily sales against target, cost ratios, labor as a percent of revenue, margin by product or service line.
- Alerts that find you. When a number drifts out of range, the dashboard tells you. You shouldn’t have to go looking.
Where AI fits
Where it earns its place: plain-English weekly summaries, anomaly flags that catch a supplier price creep or a labor spike, and what-if projections. Where it doesn’t, we leave it out. A dashboard’s first job is to be right.
How pricing works
“Hourly, open-ended” is how small businesses get burned on software. Every dashboard is quoted as a written proposal with a fixed number after the intro call. If you want more later, that’s a new number you approve first.
Why us
This is the work we know best. Builtwell’s founder built OutpostIQ, a profitability-modeling SaaS for restaurants, and runs strategy and systems for a multi-location restaurant group. These dashboards come from someone who has managed a P&L off one.
