Chef's Memo

【Development Philosophy】
ChefsMemo was born from a strong desire to "create a future where chefs can earn solid revenue not just from providing recipes to their restaurants, but by making their cultivated 'skills' themselves into assets" and to "eliminate tacit knowledge in the culinary industry and contribute to the development of the entire industry."
By supporting the daily learning of culinary students and young chefs, and providing a place where they can openly share and communicate their knowledge and skills, we aim to create a world where chefs can thrive with both "the value of their techniques" and "a management perspective."

【Three Key Features of ChefsMemo】
• A platform for sharing and communicating techniques and recipes
You can freely share and communicate the cooking techniques and trial recipes you've cultivated as original "articles." It's a place that eliminates tacit knowledge that tends to be buried in the industry and transforms individual knowledge into value.
• Solving the problem of lost kitchen notes and photos
Record intuitively at a moment's notice, even during cooking when your hands are busy. Handwritten notes can be scanned and digitized, and plating photos and more can be neatly organized and saved without getting lost.
• Professional cost calculation and profit analysis
Without relying on Excel, accurate cost calculations considering yield loss (waste) and profit analysis by menu can be completed with just a smartphone.

【Solving These Daily Inconveniences!】
• Taking paper notes in the kitchen is bothersome, and they get dirty or lost
• You take photos of how to cut garnishes and plating, but they get buried in your smartphone folder
• You want to do cost calculations and profit analysis, but managing them in Excel is difficult and ends up being put off
