Ensemble for food and beverage
Hours spent retyping sales are hours not spent opening branches.
Ensemble is an AI-native ERP for food and beverage businesses in the Philippines. It connects the POS, accounting and payroll you already run, and its AI handles the routine work between them, so your team's hours go to growing the business.
The same sales figure, typed again and again.
A branch's sales leave the POS and get typed again: into a branch report, finance's sheet and the books. The same typing repeats for every branch, every day. Payouts from delivery apps and e-wallets are matched to deposits line by line, and stock is counted and typed up at month end.
None of it grows the business. Every branch you open adds more of it, and it takes the hours your team could spend on the next one.
A day's sales of ₱48,250, already in the POS, typed again into the branch report, finance's sheet and the books.
Your POS stays. So do your books.
Your BIR-accredited POS keeps issuing receipts, and QuickBooks, Xero or your bookkeeper keeps the ledger. Payroll, the delivery apps and your group chats stay too. Ensemble connects to all of them, so the day's sales are entered once and everything after reads from there. Whatever your team shares, a supplier bill, a photo of a delivery receipt or a message thread, is filed to the right department. That's the company brain: one record of the whole business.

Think of it as an operating system for the business.Built to run the routine work across your teams and departments.
The mall branch's deposit came in short yesterday. What's off?
Cash and cards match the POS close. Most of the gap is e-wallet sales that haven't settled yet. That's timing, not a loss.
Finance's read: the e-wallet payout lands tomorrow. The last ₱640 is two delivery orders refunded in the app but still in the POS as sales.
The adjusting entry for the two refunds is in finance's queue to review and post. Nothing reaches the books until they do.
Good. Keep an eye on tomorrow's payout.
Watching it. You'll only hear about it if it doesn't land.
Branch closes, without the chasing.
Sales, deposits and stock requests come in from each branch, and a missing report is flagged when it's due.
A commissary that knows its food cost.
Par levels, batches and wastage are tracked as the kitchen runs, so each item's cost is known as it's made.
Purchase orders, drafted.
Requests are grouped by supplier into draft orders that your team checks, sends and tracks to delivery.
Payouts matched as they land.
Delivery-app, e-wallet and bank reports are matched to deposits, and anything off goes to finance.
Approvals that don't sit in an inbox.
Payment requests, liquidations and cash advances follow your approval chain and your limits.
Catering, from inquiry to P&L.
An AI agent is built to answer event inquiries on Instagram and Messenger and hand them to your team, and each event gets its own P&L.
Wholesale and online orders, one queue.
Standing orders, webstore orders and marketplace settlements land in one queue, matched to what was sold.
The whole business, one question away.
P&L by business unit, scorecards, and answers to any question, with the source.
Ensemble runs the routine work. Your team opens the next branch.
On their own, each branch's close is read, payouts are matched, requisitions are grouped, and crossed par levels and late deposits are flagged. Those hours go back into running and opening branches. Your team switches each automation on and sets its rules. Purchase orders, and anything outside the rules, come to a person. Ensemble never issues receipts, moves money or runs payroll.

Built first for food and beverage, fitted to your SOPs.
Frankenstein is an AI studio in Manila. We build Ensemble, an AI-native ERP, into the way your business already runs. Our first full builds are in food and beverage. Ensemble is built for cafe chains, restaurant groups with a central kitchen and caterers. We start with the people who do the work, and where a process could run better, we'll say so.
What food businesses ask first.
- Do we have to replace our POS?
No. Your BIR-accredited POS keeps issuing receipts, and Ensemble is built to read each branch's sales and daily close from it.
- Does Ensemble replace QuickBooks or Xero?
No. They keep the ledger. Ensemble is built to reconcile against it and draft entries for finance to post.
- Can it handle delivery-app and e-wallet payouts?
Yes. It's built to match payout reports and bank statements to your deposits and flag anything that doesn't match.
- Where does our team use it?
In a web app on desktop and tablet. Alerts reach your team in the messaging apps and email they already use, and questions can be asked in the app or on Telegram.
- How does it start?
With a first session: a working hour, not a sales call. Bring one branch's daily report and leave knowing what's worth building first.
Reconciliations are where the hours go. Start there.
The first session is an hour, it costs nothing, and it starts when you Talk to us.
Tell us what's slowing you down.
Two or three sentences is plenty. We read every line ourselves, and a person replies.
