Plano de Negócio: Agende aí – Previsibilidade e gestão para empreendimentos alimentícios

Abstract

This paper presents a business plan for Agende aí, a technology startup that has developed a Software as a Service (SaaS) platform focused on scheduling management and demand predictability for the food sector. The project addresses the challenges of operational uncertainty, input waste, and organizational difficulties faced by micro-entrepreneurs and small food businesses, a problem validated through market research and usability tests yielding excellent scores. The proposed solution is a web-based system that facilitates advance sales, intelligent inventory management, and 24-hour operation, aiming to optimize cash flow and reduce the vendor's manual workload. The business plan's methodology encompasses the validation of the Minimum Viable Product (MVP), competitive analysis focused on data intelligence differentiation, and the structuring of a technological roadmap integrating Artificial Intelligence. The revenue model is B2B, based on accessible subscriptions focused on volume, enabling digital inclusion for small suppliers. The project, developed within the innovation ecosystem of the Federal Institute of Piauí (IFPI) - Picos Campus and supported by strategic local partners, demonstrates significant potential for scalability and economic impact, positioning itself as a preventive and efficient management tool, distinct from traditional delivery applications.
