See workflowWhy switchMove beyond stale sheets, paper counts, desktop-only workflows, and POS-only reporting.
Spreadsheets get stale fast
A sheet is only accurate until the next unrecorded count, waste event, delivery, or manager note.
POS reports miss ingredient reality
Your POS can show sales, but KitchenInvy helps connect menu items to inventory, recipes, waste, and variance.
Generic inventory tools do not think like kitchens
Food businesses need par levels, storage locations, suppliers, waste approvals, recipe cost, and food-cost reports.
Desktop-only workflows slow teams down
Inventory happens in coolers, storage rooms, trucks, prep areas, and quick manager check-ins. KitchenInvy supports the desk and the mobile moment.
Enterprise systems are often too much
KitchenInvy keeps the daily workflow practical for small teams while still giving owners reports they can act on.
Setup and trustStart cleanly, protect business data, and get help when setup needs a human touch.
Let KitchenInvy help turn a spreadsheet or POS export into a cleaner starter inventory list, saving setup time so your team can get useful counts, ordering, and reports faster.
Includes up to 150 inventory items, one import file or POS export, one cleanup pass, and a setup handoff. Larger imports can be scoped before work starts.Import cleanupSupplier/category reviewBarcode and brand guidanceSetup handoff
Role-based access
Admins, managers, staff, accountants, and read-only users can each see the pages that fit their job.
Encrypted POS credentials
Square access tokens and webhook keys are encrypted before storage and can be removed by authorized admins.
Workspace-separated data
Each restaurant workspace keeps its users, inventory, reports, POS setup, and support history scoped to that business.
Support built into the product
Customers can contact KitchenInvy from the app, and the support inbox keeps replies in one accountable thread.
Owner questionsAnswers for teams deciding whether to move beyond spreadsheets.
Why switch from spreadsheets?
Spreadsheets are flexible, but they are easy to forget, overwrite, or leave stale. KitchenInvy turns inventory into a daily workflow for counts, order planning, waste, reports, and accountability.
Where will we feel value first?
Most teams feel it first in cleaner setup, faster counts, and better order planning. The deeper value comes from waste review, reports, recipe cost, stock variance, and menu margin visibility.
Can staff use it without seeing owner-only information?
Yes. Role and page access controls let staff update inventory or submit waste while owners protect reports, billing, user management, and POS setup.
What makes the reports useful?
The reports are built around business questions: what is on hand, what was ordered, what was wasted, what changed, and where food cost or margin may need attention.
