There's a moment every restaurant owner knows.
It's 3pm. The lunch rush just ended. You've got maybe ten minutes before prep starts for dinner. And you pull out your phone to check — did today actually go well?
Most finance apps answer that question with a ledger. Filters. Export options. Categories built by people who think like accountants.
But you're standing at the counter with one hand free. You don't want a ledger. You want a verdict.
That's the problem we set out to solve with Radish 🥬 — a money tracking app designed for independent cafe and restaurant owners.
We built the whole thing around one rule: if a screen takes more than three seconds to read, it won't get opened during service hours.
So here's what that looked like in practice:
The Total Balance is the biggest thing on the dashboard, because it's the number you check most. Everything else steps down from there.
Speed of Service is tracked as a bar chart against a fixed 260-second target line. Bars turn green when you're under it and red when you're not. You can spot a bad service day without reading a single number.
Request Funds sits permanently at the bottom of the screen — thumb reach, one hand, no menu diving.
And colour never decorates anything. Green means performing. Red means look here. That's the entire system.
The best decision we made was adding that benchmark line. Early versions showed raw service times, which meant the owner had to interpret them. Adding a target and colouring against it turned a chart into an answer.
Because that's really what this app does. It doesn't show you data. It tells you how the day went.
