About MarginKind
Built by people who care about restaurant operations.
MarginKind Provisions is designed to give restaurants one platform for POS, kitchen, ordering, inventory, labor, and reporting. We built it to help operators stay focused on the dining room and keep the business in the black.
Jon Engelbert
Founder
Jon founded MarginKind after years of working on data, software, and the kinds of systems that need to be dependable when the dining room is full. His background includes web applications, analytics, and statistical methods, plus recognition from Proquest's “Making a World of Difference” award.
The goal behind Provisions is simple: help restaurants connect menu planning, kitchen execution, inventory, labor, and reporting so operators can make better decisions faster.
Phillis Engelbert
Company advisor
Phillis is an advisor to MarginKind and brings hands-on restaurant operator experience from The Lunch Room in Ann Arbor. She helps keep the product grounded in the realities of service, labor, inventory, and guest experience.
Her perspective helps ensure Provisions is built for how real restaurants work, not just how software looks on a slide.

Restaurants need systems that help them see the whole operation at once: menu, kitchen, purchasing, labor, and reporting. MarginKind is built to make those pieces feel like one system instead of a stack of disconnected tools.
