VAT and sales tax
Your tax return, ready when you are.
Every sale and every bill carries its tax, so the return builds itself as you trade. Use your country's tax pack where we have one, or add your own rates.
- Standard, reduced and zero rates
- Return figures that open up to every sale and bill
- VAT or sales tax, whichever your country uses
- UK VAT return: boxes 1 to 9 worked out from your books, with the cash accounting scheme and a check for common mistakes
Banks and reconciliation
Match the bank in minutes, not evenings.
Bring in your bank statements and Frontroom matches card payouts, bills and wages for you. Approve the matches, sort the rest.
- Suggested matches you approve
- Bank accounts and cash boxes side by side
- More than one currency
Reports
Clear charts, straight answers.
Profit and loss, balance sheet, cash flow and sales by item and by hour, for one branch or all of them. Every number opens up to show where it came from.
- Profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow
- Sales by item, by hour and by branch

AI that does the busywork
Less typing. More running the restaurant.
You stay in charge: nothing the AI drafts goes into your books until you approve it.
AI cameras
See the room, even when you are not in it.
Connect the cameras you already have. Frontroom shows how busy the floor is, when staff arrive and leave, and how hard the kitchen is working, with a short report every day.
- Live floor view with guest and staff counts
- Staff check-in and check-out
- Kitchen activity through the day
- Alerts for long waits

- Lines matched to stock items
- VAT split out for your return
Voice notes
Say it once. It is written down.
Record a short voice note and Frontroom turns it into text: an expense, a note on an order, or a question for Ask. Busy hands, no typing.
- English, Arabic and Hebrew
- Expenses, order notes and questions
- Check the text before you save
