# RestaurantDoctorAI > RestaurantDoctorAI is a profit check for independent restaurant owners. The free check asks 12 multiple-choice questions about how the restaurant runs, scores the answers against industry benchmarks for its type of restaurant, and shows a grade, the estimated yearly profit leak and the biggest leak or opportunity. A full report can be bought once on the website; there is no subscription. - The free check takes about 60 seconds and needs no account, name or email. - Results are estimates from 12 multiple-choice answers and industry benchmarks, not financial, tax or legal advice. - Money ranges are in US dollars, or in local currency for countries that use the euro, the pound sterling, the Canadian, Australian or New Zealand dollar, or the Swiss franc. Wording such as delivery apps and review sites follows the restaurant's country. - The full report adds estimates for each leak and opportunity, a 72-hour action plan, a 30-day roadmap, team cards and worksheets. It is only sold on restaurantdoctorai.com, and payment goes through Stripe. - RestaurantDoctorAI is provided by Gomorra Labs LLC. ## Free profit check - [Free profit check](https://restaurantdoctorai.com/): The 12-question check, its free result and the full report. - [Pricing](https://restaurantdoctorai.com/pricing): What's free, what the full report includes and costs, and how payment and refunds work. - [Use RestaurantDoctorAI in your AI assistant](https://restaurantdoctorai.com/ai-assistants): How to add the free check and recipe costing to Claude or another assistant that supports remote MCP servers, and what is sent. ## MCP server for AI assistants - [MCP endpoint](https://restaurantdoctorai.com/api/mcp): A public, read-only MCP server over Streamable HTTP.
