Overview
"One paneer tikka = 200g paneer, 30g curd, 15g spices." When that recipe lives in your restaurant inventory management software, every bill reduces stock automatically, and the gap between expected and actual stock shows you exactly where food is leaking: wastage, over-portioning or worse. Ours connects to restaurant billing software, tracks purchases and vendors, and sends a daily low-stock list so the kitchen never runs out mid-service.

The problem
What slows restaurants and cloud kitchens down today
Food cost is a guess
You know total purchases, but not what each dish actually costs you to make.
Stock leaks silently
Wastage, over-portioning and theft show up only as a lower margin at the month end.
Running out mid-service
The kitchen discovers there's no cream during dinner, and a best-seller goes off the menu.
Vendor bills don't match
Short deliveries and price changes from vendors go unnoticed without proper purchase records.

How we build it
Recipe logic built for Indian kitchens
Indian menus are full of sub-recipes: a makhani gravy used in six dishes, a marinade used in four. We model those properly so deductions are accurate. The inventory engine is the same one behind our inventory software for small businesses, adapted for recipes and wastage, as explained in Excel vs inventory software.
- Sub-recipe support
- Food cost per dish
- Wastage with reasons
- WhatsApp low-stock alerts

Why restaurant inventory management software pays for itself
Food cost is usually the biggest controllable expense in a restaurant. Even a few percent saved in wastage and portioning is real money every month. Restaurant inventory management software doesn't save it by itself. It shows you where the leaks are, so the chef and manager can fix them.
Inventory alongside billing and ordering
Stock deduction needs sales data, so this connects to our restaurant billing software. Direct orders from your restaurant website count too. Manufacturers with similar raw-material needs should look at manufacturing inventory software.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it reduce stock automatically when a bill is made?
Yes. Each dish's recipe is deducted from stock when it's billed, including sub-recipes like gravies.
Can it work with my current billing software?
If your billing software has an API or export, we can connect it. Otherwise, our own billing software connects natively.
How does it track wastage?
Kitchen staff log spoilage and wastage on a phone with a reason. It shows up in daily and weekly reports.
Can it handle a central kitchen?
Yes. Central kitchen production and transfers to outlets are supported on the Central kitchen plan.
Do I need to count stock every day?
No. Most restaurants count key items daily and do a full count weekly. The software shows the variance after each count.
