Description
Brikly provides a suite of modular, AI-enhanced tools designed specifically for independent café and coffee shop owners in the UK. The platform's core philosophy is "Brik by Brik. 1% at a time," allowing users to start with a single "Brik" that addresses a specific pain point and gradually add more modules as their business grows. This approach aims to prevent overwhelm and ensure users only pay for what they need.

CostingBrik is a key module that enables live recipe costing, helping owners understand the true cost of every dish and beverage. It tracks suppliers, live ingredient prices, and calculates margins across the entire menu. Features include supplier comparison to identify overspending and AI invoice capture that learns user patterns. This module is crucial for recovering lost margin by fixing under-priced recipes.
StaffBrik focuses on staff management, aiming to control wage costs effectively. It includes a rota builder with live wage budget tracking, providing true cost visibility that incorporates National Insurance, pension, and holiday pay. The module also offers insights into absence patterns and Bradford Factor scoring, with built-in SSP calculations for April 2026.
MenuBrik provides menu insights, helping owners to engineer their offerings for maximum profitability. SafetyBrik digitizes the SFBB (Safer Food, Better Business) pack, offering a digital daily diary for recording fridge temperatures, opening and closing tasks, and cleaning schedules. It also manages allergen matrices that auto-sync from recipes, staff certifications, supplier records, and incident logs. SafetyBrik is offered free forever with no card required.
All Briks are enhanced with BriklyAI, providing practical nudges and insights when needed without being intrusive. The platform emphasizes a "no bloat" approach, with each Brik solving a single job clearly. Its modular design ensures users can add Briks as they grow, avoiding enterprise traps with transparent pricing and no sales calls. Brikly is built by Ed, who has 17 years of café ownership experience, ensuring the tools are designed for real-world chaotic days, not perfect ones.
