Compeat Reports Your Numbers.
Marty Gets Them Back.

Compeat is a solid back-office platform for restaurant accounting and operations. Marty is the cash recovery layer you add on top — to turn the numbers in the report into dollars that come back.

What Compeat Does Well

Compeat is a multi-unit restaurant back-office platform covering accounting, inventory management, recipe costing, labor management, purchasing, and payroll. It's built specifically for restaurants and understands the operational nuances that generic accounting platforms miss.

The platform's strength is in consolidating back-office functions — replacing the spreadsheet maze of inventory counts, recipe costing, and labor tracking with a single system of record. Operators who implement Compeat typically see significant reductions in accounting close time.

The Gap Compeat Doesn't Fill

Compeat shows you where the money went. It doesn't send your GM a 6 AM email with exact dollars to recover today. It doesn't guarantee you'll find 8x your fee in recoverable cash within 30 days.

The distinction is between reporting and recovery. Reporting tells you food cost was 36.1% last period. Recovery tells you $640 of the variance is a vendor overbilling you can dispute today, $196 is a portioning issue you can fix tomorrow, and $384 is unverified OT to address before payroll.

Compeat gives you the report. Marty does the recovery.
