Business Tool

Know your real profit on every jar, every month

Revenue, platform fees, Stripe payouts, and expenses in one place. No spreadsheet gymnastics. One dashboard that tells you whether your food business is actually making money.

The problem

Most cottage food sellers don't know their real profit

You know how much you sold. But after platform fees, payment processing, ingredients, packaging, booth fees, and shipping supplies — what's actually left? Most sellers can't answer that question without an hour of spreadsheet work.

💸

Hidden fee layers

Platform fees, Stripe processing (2.9% + $0.30), and payment timing all affect your actual take-home. The P&L shows every deduction, every dollar.

🧾

Tax time chaos

When April rolls around, you need clean numbers: gross revenue, cost of goods, expenses by category, net profit. The tool exports all of it as CSV.

📈

Pricing blind spots

If your cookies cost $2.40 to make, $0.80 in packaging, and $1.50 in fees — are you making money at $6? The P&L makes the answer obvious.
