Case Study: ilili reduces labor costs and eliminates manual invoice data entry with xtraCHEF

Ilili - Customer Case Study

Ilili, a busy New York City restaurant, was processing more than 300 invoices a month by manual entry, requiring two staff (a chef and an office manager) several hours every day to track food costs—an error-prone and time-consuming process. To solve this, Ilili implemented xtraCHEF (by Toast) to streamline invoice capture and cost tracking.

xtraCHEF automated invoice capture so anyone on the team can photograph or scan invoices, stores all invoices online, and integrates with ChefTec for accurate purchase history and cost reports. As a result, Ilili significantly reduced labor costs and manual-entry errors—what used to take a couple of hours every day is now done once a week in up to two hours—while gaining quick access to historical purchases and reliable cost data.
