Your new best friend
When you sign into copilot, you’ll be greeted with a chat box, similar to many other chat-based AI tools. Here you can ask a variety of different questions about your restaurant data (orders, customers, menu items, etc…) and collaborate to conduct market research, brainstorm campaign ideas, and much much more.
Asking Meaningful Data Questions
One of the most powerful features of copilot is its ability to turn simple, conversational questions into complex data queries – no SQL or spreadsheet work required.
By structuring your question clearly, copilot can instantly understand what you're looking for, apply the right filters and calculations, and return insights with helpful visualizations.
Most strong questions follow a common structure with 2-4 key components:

Examples: sales, transactions, average check, new customers, churn rate
Timeframe
Over what period?
Examples: this week, last 30 days, March, year-to-date, week over week
Location
Where are you looking?
Examples: entire brand, a single location, a region or group of stores
Item or Category
Are you focused on a specific menu item or type of product?
Examples: chicken wraps, desserts, catering, beverages
