Key points
- Ask in everyday words, on the web or in WhatsApp, about things like your best seller, today's sales, or stock to check.
- Name the period, ask one thing at a time, and open the report before a big decision.
- Ask about yesterday's sales and for business advice in the morning, while you can still buy ingredients or sort out staff.
- The Kazeer AI chatbot is listed in all three plans: the Free plan, Standard Monthly, and Standard Annual.
Picture this: it's 10 in the morning at your outlet. The cashier is getting busy, the kitchen is working through orders, and before lunch you want to know two things: what's selling best, and which ingredients need checking. There's no time to open one report after another.
For questions like these, you can ask Kazeer AI in everyday words, on the web or in WhatsApp. Below are four questions to start with, how to use the answers, and which Kazeer plans include the Kazeer AI chatbot.
Example: The four questions below are Kazeer's own example questions, written in Indonesian. Kazeer AI is set up for Indonesian. It usually understands questions in English, but it mostly replies in Indonesian, and English isn't officially supported yet. Each heading gives an English translation, and the sample answers are translated too. Every answer, summary, and number in this article is sample data, not from a real business.
What Kazeer AI is
Kazeer AI is an assistant that helps you understand your business records. You ask in everyday words, the way you'd ask a coworker, on the web or in WhatsApp. Use whichever is handier at the moment: the web when you're at a computer, WhatsApp when you're in the kitchen or on the road.
You can also ask about yesterday's sales and ask for business advice. Neither is sent automatically, so ask in the chat when you need them. Both are covered below. You can see a sample conversation in the Kazeer AI section.
The decisions are still yours, because you know better than anyone what's going on at your outlet today.
Four questions to start with
Together they cover what you probably check every day: what's selling, sales so far, stock, and what needs doing today.
"What sells best?"
In Indonesian: "Apa yang paling laku?"
Sample answer: "This week your best seller is Kopi Susu Aren, with 128 cups sold."
There are two things to do with this answer. First, make sure you have enough ingredients for that item to last the next few days. A best seller that runs out during the rush means lost sales.
Second, remember that your best seller isn't always your most profitable item. An item whose cost of goods sold (COGS) is high for its price can sell a lot and still earn you little per serving. Before you put it on promo, compare its price with its COGS per serving. To work that out, see how to calculate menu COGS.
"How much have I sold today?"
In Indonesian: "Berapa penjualan hari ini?"
Sample answer: "As of 10:30, today's sales are Rp1,104,000 from 48 transactions."
Look at the time. A number you ask for in the morning isn't a full day yet, so don't compare it with yesterday's total. Compare it with the same time on another day, such as the same day last week.
You can also work out the average per transaction from those two numbers: Rp1,104,000 ÷ 48 = Rp23,000. If that's well below your usual morning average, maybe more of this morning's customers bought a drink without food.
"Which items should I check?"
In Indonesian: "Barang apa yang perlu dicek?"
Sample answer: "You're down to 6 liters of UHT milk and 1.2 kg of palm sugar. Check them before the 11:00 rush."
Ingredient stock in Kazeer goes down automatically with each sale, but staff don't always record spills, spoiled stock, or waste. So go look at the shelf or the fridge yourself, then work out how many servings what's left will make.
Say one cup of Kopi Susu Aren uses 150 ml of milk. The 6 liters left (6,000 ml) make 40 cups (6,000 ÷ 150). Count the other drinks that use the same milk too. If you usually go through more than 6 liters of milk a day, buy more today. To set a minimum stock level, see the guide to ingredient stock.
"What are my priorities today?"
In Indonesian: "Apa prioritas saya hari ini?"
In Kazeer's example, this one gets a short numbered list, like this:
- Restock UHT milk and palm sugar before 11:00.
- Promote Croissant Butter, since its sales fell yesterday.
- Schedule extra staff. Your busy hours are 11:00 to 13:00.
Treat the list as a starting point. Some things may not be in your business records, like a catering order that just came in by phone, or heavy rain since early morning. Adjust the order to fit, then work through it one item at a time.
Yesterday's sales and business advice
Both are most useful first thing in the morning, while there's still time to buy ingredients or sort out staff.
Yesterday's sales
Ask, for example, "How were sales yesterday?" (in Indonesian, "Gimana penjualan kemarin?"). A sample answer:
- Sales: Rp4,250,000
- Transactions: 186
- Top seller: Kopi Susu Aren
From sales and transactions, you can work out the average per transaction: Rp4,250,000 ÷ 186 = Rp22,849 (rounded). For more on reading these numbers, including how to compare them with the same day last week, see how to read your daily sales report.
Business advice
A sample piece of advice: "Your busy hours are 11:00 to 13:00. Get your stock ready and promote your signature items."
So before 11:00, before the line starts to build, have these ready: ingredients for your signature items, staff on the POS and in the kitchen, and the promo your cashiers will offer.
Advice is most useful when you try it and then judge the result. Say you try a promo from 15:00 to 17:00. Decide up front how many days it will run, then compare drink sales in those hours with the same hours the week before. If the promo is a discount, set the promo price in Kazeer's promo feature, and make sure each cup still earns enough. That tells you whether the promo is worth keeping.
Tips for answers you can use
Say which period you mean
What sells best today and what sells best this week can be different. So include the period, for example "What sells best this week?" ("Apa yang paling laku minggu ini?"). When you read the answer, check the period it mentions too. The sample answers above say "this week" and "as of 10:30."
Ask one thing at a time
A question like "How much have I sold today, and which items should I check?" works better as two questions. An answer about one thing is easier to read on a phone screen.
Open the report before a big decision
Before you place a large ingredient order, change a menu price, drop an item from the menu, or add staff shifts, open the report too. One number from the chat is easier to judge next to the others. Higher sales, for example, only mean more profit if gross profit goes up too.
Kazeer's reports show sales, COGS, gross profit, net profit after the operating costs you record, and tax. If you have more than one outlet, there's one report for all of them.
Plans that include the Kazeer AI chatbot
All three Kazeer plans list the Kazeer AI chatbot. Here's a summary from the plan list on Kazeer's site:
| Plan | Price per outlet | Kazeer AI chatbot |
|---|
| Free plan | Rp0, forever | Listed |
| Standard Monthly | Rp250,000 per month | Listed |
| Standard Annual | Rp2,000,000 per year | Listed |
The Free plan has no subscription fee, but there's a Rp500 platform fee per transaction, paid by the customer, and an initial deposit of Rp50,000. The platform fee is deducted from that deposit balance, so the balance doesn't go negative. Neither Standard plan has a platform fee, and both include staff training. Standard Annual also lists a free tablet stand. All three plans include access to every feature for owner, cashier, kitchen staff, and table order, online payment with dynamic QRIS, and customer support (WhatsApp 24/7, answered by the team daily from 09:00 to 21:00 WIB).
The guide to choosing a plan compares all three, and the details are in the pricing section.
A short morning routine
Try this order for one week, before you open:
- Ask about yesterday's sales: sales, transactions, and top seller.
- Work out the average per transaction, then compare it with the same day last week.
- Ask which items need checking, then go look at the shelves and the fridge yourself.
- Ask for today's priorities, then adjust the list for what only you know.
- Ask for business advice, then get ingredients and staff ready before the rush.
After the rush, ask how much you've sold today. Write down the number and the time, so next week you can compare at the same time.
At the end of the week, think back: which questions most often got you to act right away? Put those at the top of your routine.
