The Problem Today

School food service runs on disconnected tools

📎

Spreadsheet Chaos

Menu planning in Excel, inventory on paper, claims in a different app. Nothing talks to anything.

Manual Double-Entry

Staff re-type the same data in 3 systems. Errors multiply. Time evaporates.

💸

Lost Reimbursements

Inaccurate meal counts = money left on the table with USDA. Districts lose thousands every year.

The MiChoice Ecosystem

9 Products. One Platform.

Every module shares the same database, the same student records, and the same AI engine. Update it once — it flows everywhere.

The AI Advantage

miAgentic — AI That Lives Inside Every Module

Not a chatbot bolted on top. Not a separate "AI add-on." Intelligence is woven into every screen your staff touches.

🔍

Anomaly Detection

Spots unusual meal counts, suspicious transactions, or inventory discrepancies before they become audit findings.

📈

Predictive Ordering

Learns consumption patterns and suggests purchase orders before you run out.

⚖️

Compliance Watchdog

Continuously monitors 7 CFR 245 rules, nutrition requirements, and claim accuracy — flags issues in real time.

💬

Natural Language Reports

"Show me participation by campus for October" — just type it. No report builder needed.

Built for Compliance

Federal Rules Baked In, Not Bolted On

MiChoice was built from day one around USDA regulations — not retrofitted to pass an audit.

🛡️

7 CFR 245 Compliant

Student eligibility status is NEVER displayed at point of service. Neutral dot indicators replace text labels.

📝

Audit-Ready Claims

Every meal, every transaction, every edit — timestamped and traceable. Generate claim files with one click.

🌐

Bilingual by Default

Parent-facing applications and communications available in English and Spanish out of the box.

🔒

Role-Based Access

Cashiers see only what cashiers need. Directors see the full picture. Nobody sees what they shouldn't.

📊

USDA Meal Pattern

Menu planning automatically checks against federal nutrition requirements and flags non-compliant recipes.

Accessible Design

WCAG-aligned interfaces ensure all staff and parents can use every feature regardless of ability.
