AI-powered food costing and catering operations platform built by catering professionals for catering professionals across India.
CATEROPS was built to modernize how Indian catering businesses calculate food cost, manage pricing, control overheads, estimate ingredient requirements, and maintain profitability using AI food costing tools. We believe every caterer, from small-scale home chefs to large banquet operations, deserves access to professional-grade catering business software that eliminates guesswork and maximizes margins.
CATEROPS was created by real catering professionals who spent years facing the same challenges you face every day. We know what it feels like to lose sleep over fluctuating ingredient prices, to second-guess portion norms, and to wonder if we quoted the right price to a client.
For years, we relied on manual costing methods, complex spreadsheets, and gut instincts. We dealt with sudden rate changes in wholesale markets, wastage that ate into profits, and the constant fear of overpricing (losing clients) or underpricing (losing money).
This frustration led us to build CATEROPS, a comprehensive food cost calculator for India that solves all these problems with AI precision. Every feature we build comes from real kitchen experience and real business challenges.
