“I spent years in hospitality working alongside some of the sharpest operators I've ever met — people who knew their venues inside out but were relying on tools that were never built to work the way operators actually think. Most operators aren't running on data, they're running on instinct. That's why I built HORIZON.
Prompts replace platforms. Instead of navigating multiple systems and reconciling endless reports, you just ask. One question. One answer. Everything you need to run a better business, without the noise.”
How HORIZON compares
What it takes to get an answer today.
Every task below is one operators already do. The difference is the number of steps it takes, and whether the answer comes out the same way twice.
PROMPTS REPLACE PLATFORMS.
Can your current software answer these?
No reports to configure, no filters to set. Every answer is worked from the venue's own connected numbers.

Weekly review
Start the week in ten minutes.
HORIZON prepares the reports your venue actually uses, built from your own sales, labour and booking data. Open them, or ask something else. Either way the week starts without rebuilding a spreadsheet.
- Ready before you are. Prepared each Monday morning.
- Built around your venue. The reports you keep asking for become the ones waiting for you.
- Ask anything on top. The review is a starting point, not a limit.
This week.
Cross-platform intelligence
One answer, read across every system.
Your POS knows sales. Your roster knows hours. Your bookings know covers. HORIZON reads all three at once, so one question gets one answer. No exporting, no lining up dates.
- Read-only. Nothing in your systems changes.
- Nothing to migrate. Keep the platforms you already use.
- Grows with you. Stock, accounting and reviews when you want them.

Venue health score
Five numbers, one score, every morning.
HORIZON checks the five numbers you would check yourself: spend per head, labour, no-shows, discounts and daily revenue. Each is compared to your own recent trading and to comparable venues. The score is where those five sit together, and it is rebuilt each morning.
Industry benchmarks
Want to see how you rank against your competitors?
Measured against venues that trade the way you do: same service model, similar revenue, same region. Every number you track, placed in that field.
- Placed, not scored. You see the quartile you sit in, and the gap to the one above.
- Aggregated and anonymous. No venue sees another’s numbers.
Your venue against the field.
What the venues ahead did
Then it tells you what to do about it.
Seeing the gap is one thing. HORIZON reads what actually moved the number for venues that closed the same gap, and prices what the same change is worth in your venue.
Spend per head.
Venues that moved spend per head from the mid $50s to $60 and above within 90 days shared three changes: an aperitif prompt at order taking, a shared plate priced between $22 and $28, and their strongest server moved onto the 7pm to 9pm window.
Closing half the gap, $3.90 a head, across roughly 1,800 weekly covers adds $7,000 a week or $365,000 a year without a single extra cover. Start at 7pm to 9pm, where 39% of your covers land.
Drafts. Letters. Agendas.
Turn the numbers into the document you need.
Ask for the letter, the brief or the agenda. HORIZON writes it from your figures, ready to edit and send. No blank page.
Rent is 10.8% of revenue against a cohort range of 8.5% to 10.5%. The increase takes you to 12.1%. Here is the response.
Re: Proposed rent review, 1 January
Thank you for the notice of the proposed increase. We have reviewed it against the venue’s trading over the last twelve months and against occupancy costs at comparable venues, and we would like to put forward an alternative.
Over that period the venue turned over $5.42M and paid $586,000 in rent, representing 10.8% of revenue. Comparable full-service venues in our revenue band sit between 8.5% and 10.5%, so our occupancy cost already stands at the upper end of the range.
The proposed 12% increase would take rent to 12.1% of revenue, in a year where wage costs rose 11.2% and net profit fell 6.4%. We would propose instead a 4% increase from 1 January, with a further 3% from 1 July, reviewed against trading…
Three items carry real money: afternoons, discounting and dessert. Together about $1,600 a week. Here is the agenda.
FOH team meeting · Tuesday, 3pm
- Where we sit. Revenue up 4.1% on last year. Labour at 31.5% against a 29% target.
- Afternoons. 2pm to 5pm returns $46 a rostered hour against $131 at dinner. What changes from Monday.
- Discounts. Up from 1.7% to 2.3% of sales. When a discount is authorised, and who signs it off.
- Dessert. Offered on 27% of dinner tables. A dessert table is worth $45 more.
- Drinks at order. Beverage is 22% of the bill. The venues ahead of us sit at 31%.
- The 8pm wave. One hour carries 21% of the day. Who is where, and who runs the pass…
