Connect
Your POS first, then labor, payroll, accounting, reviews, reservations and weather. Loaded every night into one database in your name.
Your business.
Just ask.
Mixing Glass brings the data from every system your venues run into one place you own, then connects Claude to it. Ask anything about your sales, staff and costs, and get an answer you can check.
For bars, restaurants, cafés and hotel food & beverage groups.

Which store had the worst week, and why?
Long Beach. Net sales were $43.6K, down 7.4% on the week before. It rained two days of the seven, and the drop sits on Tuesday and Wednesday, the storm days.
North Park, the other coastal store, fell 5.2% the same week. Your inland stores held steady.
Your numbers live in six places
- Point of sale
- Scheduling
- Payroll
- Accounting
- Reviews
- Reservations
“Why was labor up last week?”
The answer sits across sales, hours, schedules and payroll. Someone spends an afternoon in exports to piece it together, if it gets done at all.
Each system has its own report. None of them talk to each other, and none of them knows your same-store rules, when your week starts, or which location was closed for a private event.
We put it in one place, then put Claude on top
Report
A weekly report in your inbox, written by AI in plain English, and a dashboard for the detail behind it.
Ask
Claude, connected to all of it through MCP. Ask from your phone and get answers that use your own definitions.
Act
Agents that do work on your behalf: review replies, labor alerts, guest marketing. Added when you are ready.
Questions you can finally ask
Who is about to hit overtime this week?
Hours worked, upcoming shifts, your overtime rules
Why did labor go up at this location?
Sales, hours and wage rates against a comparable week
What changed in our product mix?
Item sales, pricing, discounts, what stopped selling
Which location needs me this week, and why?
Sales trend, reviews, comps and voids, side by side
Was Saturday the weather, or something else?
Sales by hour, weather, the same day last year
Which costs need a closer look?
Posted costs, budgets and purchase detail
Owners ask across the group. General managers ask about their own location. You decide who sees what.
Numbers you can check
Tied out to your POS
Every week is reconciled to your own POS reports before anyone reads it. If it does not match, it does not go out.
Your definitions
Same-store rules, when your week starts, what counts as a comp. Agreed once, written down, and used by the report, the dashboard and Claude alike.
You see what is fresh
Every answer says when the data last loaded. Claude will not call half a week a full week.
The right eyes on the right data
Owners see the group, GMs see their store. Sensitive detail, like comps by employee, stays in a restricted view.
You own all of it
Your database. Your code. Your Claude account. In your name from day one.

How a project runs
Pick one question
Where are you losing the most money? We agree what a useful answer looks like.
Connect and check
We connect your systems, load your history and tie every number to your source reports.
Launch
The first weekly report goes out. We tune it with you until it reads right, then it runs. Owners and GMs learn to ask Claude.
Keep it running
We watch the connections and fix what breaks. Add the next system or agent when you are ready.
Fixed scope and a fixed price, agreed before we start.
How we charge
Setup
One time
A fixed scope at a fixed price: your database, weekly report, dashboard, Claude connection, reviews, weather and your first one or two systems.
Care
Monthly
We keep the connections working: monitoring, repairs, vendor changes, backups. Upkeep, not a software license.
Partner
Optional, monthly
Fractional tech and ops. New connections and agents without project fees, a regular call, and someone who knows your numbers.
The tools themselves (database, email, AI) are billed to you directly, at cost.
