📖A Day In Your Life With THE CONTROLLER
It's Monday morning. You open your Controller dashboard and see: labor hit 32% last week (target: 27%). The tool shows you overstaffed Tuesday lunch by 2 servers. You adjust next week's rota, set an alert for 28%, and message your AM with a one-click report. By Friday, labor is 26.5%. You just saved £400.
"We dropped food cost by 4% in the first month. The ROI is insane."

Three Layers of "Fort Knox" Security
In this industry, your P&L is your secret sauce. If the wrong person sees your margins, you lose your edge.
We built the Vault so we provide the brain, but you keep the memory.
The "Zero-Storage" Protocol
Your Data Stays Local
Our calculators run Client-Side in your browser. When you input your weekly revenue, the math happens on your device—not our server.
→ Close the tab, and the numbers vanish. We keep the tool; you keep the data.
The Google Ecosystem Bridge
Total Ownership
For deep-dive "Controller" tools, we use the Epicurean Mirror system. You "Make a Copy" of our master templates into your private Google Workspace.
→ Your sensitive spreadsheets live on Google's secure servers, under your password, not ours.
Bank-Grade Encryption
Global Compliance
For Architect subscribers who save reports: AES-256 encryption—the same standard used by high-street banks in London and Dubai.
→ Fully GDPR (UK/EU) compliant. Zero backdoors. We never sell your data.
✅ The Trust Checklist
No Snoop Policy
Staff cannot view your saved data
SSL Secure
100% encrypted connection
Instant Wipe
Delete account = everything scrubbed
Audit Ready
Boardroom reports, raw data stays yours
The Skeptic's Voice:
"If you don't store my data, how do I see my progress over 6 months?"
Our Response: For users who want "Progress Tracking," we offer an Opt-In Vault. If you choose to save your data for long-term analytics, it is siloed in an encrypted database that only your unique key can unlock. We prioritize your privacy over our convenience. If you want it wiped, it's wiped.
The Epicurean Word
The Founder's Guarantee
"I've worked the lines in Berlin, managed the madness in London, and scaled operations in Dubai and Riyadh. I know exactly what's at stake when you open your books.
My reputation as a consultant is worth more than any data point. I didn't build the Epicurean Vault to 'collect data'—I built it because I was tired of seeing talented GMs and Owners lose their shirts to avoidable mistakes.
My promise to you is simple: We provide the systems, the math, and the 'Street-Smart' logic. You keep the keys to your kingdom.
If you ever feel your data isn't 100% in your control, you have my direct line. We are here to build your empire, not watch it.
Let's get to work.
