We’ve seen what happens when data lives in reports instead of reality.
When executives review numbers, but operators don’t know what to do with them.
When insight shows up too late to matter.

So we built Roasted Data to sit between the data and the decisions — translating what’s happening into something teams can actually use.

about us

Ken BAKER

Ken Baker is the founder of Roasted Data and a seasoned restaurant finance and operations leader with more than 20 years of experience scaling multi-unit restaurant businesses. He has served as CFO for growing restaurant brands, overseeing finance, accounting, labor strategy, systems, and performance management across complex, high-volume operations.

Throughout his career, Ken repeatedly saw the same problem: restaurants had no shortage of reports or data, but a real disconnect between that information and the decisions being made in the field. Executives reviewed numbers, while GMs were left without clear, usable direction. That gap—between data, reporting, and real-world action—directly inspired the creation of Roasted Data.

Ken brings a pragmatic, operator-first mindset to the company, focused on closing that chasm by translating data into clarity. His mission is to give leaders and GMs the information they need, in a form they can actually use, to drive better decisions, stronger accountability, and more consistent execution.
