Why Flat-Rate Pricing Saves Facilities Thousands
We built PantryTec because we saw small facilities struggling to afford standard menu-planning software. Here is how our pricing transforms your operational budget.
Standard Competitor
10-Bed Facility Cost
- Charge $4+ per bed / resident
- Complex setup and training fees
- Separate RD consulting ($750+/mo)
PantryTec Starter
Any Facility Size
- Flat rate — no bed limits
- RD approval included
- Zero setup or training needed
1. Eliminate RD Consultant Fees
The average facility spends $750–$1,500 per month hiring external consultants to review and sign menus. Our service includes this verification automatically, providing instant ROI from month one.
2. Reduce Food Waste
Our menus use cross-over ingredients across the 10-week cycle. Combined with precise "Cook to Census" guidance, facilities typically reduce raw food costs by ~12% compared to ad-hoc planning.
Pricing & Service Questions
Are there any per-resident fees or hidden costs?
No. PantryTec operates on a strict flat-rate model. Whether you have 10 beds or 50 beds, you pay the same monthly subscription price. There are no setup fees, no long-term contracts, and no additional charges for the standard Registered Dietitian signature included in your plan.
What is included in the $15 Starter Plan?
The $15/month Starter Plan includes a 10-week rotating cycle menu, one menu style of your choice (Homemade Focus, Premade Focus, or Weekend Hybrid), weekly PDF delivery, and full Registered Dietitian approval to ensure compliance with CMS and state regulations.
What is the difference between the Starter and Complete plans?
The Starter Plan ($15/month) includes one menu style of your choice. The Complete Plan ($20/month) unlocks all three styles (Homemade Focus, Premade Focus, Weekend Hybrid) plus cooking adjustment guidelines for common therapeutic diets like diabetic and cardiac. Complete is recommended for facilities that want the flexibility to switch styles as resident preferences change.
How does the Premier Plan support therapeutic diets?
The $40/month Premier Plan includes expanded regulatory and therapeutic diet support covering complex clinical needs such as Renal, Cardiac, Pureed (IDDSI Level 4), Dysphagia, Diabetic (CCHO), and Dementia Finger Foods. It also allows for menu customization within the dietitian's guidelines once per 10-week rotation.
Who signs off on the menus to satisfy state surveyors?
Every plan includes a signed Registered Dietitian Approval Letter covering the full 10-week cycle. This letter satisfies state-level assisted living and memory care regulatory requirements and is included at no additional cost — eliminating the need for a separate RD consultant that typically costs $750 to $1,500 per month.
Is there a long-term contract?
No. We operate on a month-to-month subscription basis. You can pause or cancel your service at any time. We believe the quality and convenience of our menus will keep you with us — not a binding contract.
