How it works

What happens next

Nothing enters your kitchen without paperwork attached. One invoice goes in, four things happen, and you approve before anything posts.

1

It reads the invoice

Photograph it or drop in the PDF. Supplier, product, pack size, quantity and price are read line by line. Anything it is not sure of is flagged and waits for you.

2

It matches your ingredients

Each line is matched to an ingredient you already buy, and it remembers what each supplier calls things. New items are set up for you to confirm.

3

It re-prices your menu

When you approve the invoice, ingredient costs update and every dish that uses them is re-costed, yield and pack size included.

4

It tells you what to order

Stock is tracked against par, so the order list comes from what is actually low. On Pro, a demand forecast turns expected sales into a reorder list.

The plain facts

Free forever plan

Not a trial that ends in a paywall.

No setup fee

Sign up and start on your own.

No contract

Billed monthly. Cancel from Settings.

Reads PDF and photo invoices

In whatever layout your suppliers send.

Features

What it does, briefly

Each part closes a specific hole: what you paid, what it costs to plate, what is on the shelf, who you buy from, and what it adds up to.

Invoices

Your invoices read themselves.

Drop in photos or PDFs. Every line is matched to an ingredient and checked against the invoice's printed total before it posts.

Recipes & prep

Every plate re-prices itself.

Yield, trim and pack sizes are built in. When an invoice lands, the dishes that use it re-cost themselves.

Inventory & ordering

Orders come from what is actually low.

Stock is tracked against par and counted in whatever unit you count in. What is low becomes a draft order per supplier, in whole packs, ready to send.

Suppliers

The price rise you would never have noticed.

Price history per supplier and per pack size, so a case that quietly shrank is caught, not averaged away.

Analytics & accounting

Every number traces to its source.

Food cost, variance and waste trace back to the invoice line behind them. On Pro, approved bills push to Xero.

Also included on every plan
  • Orders sent to suppliers by email or WhatsApp
  • Sales import that deducts each recipe from stock
  • Stock counts and a waste log
  • Prep recipes and production runs
  • Works alongside the till you already have, by CSV import
  • Demand forecasting (Pro)

FAQ

Questions, answered

Will it read my suppliers' invoices?

Yes, photo or PDF, in whatever layout your suppliers send. The AI extracts every line item and you review and approve before anything posts to your stock or costs. When it is not sure about a line, it flags that line and waits for you.

What happens when my trial ends?

On day 15 you drop to the Free plan, unless you have added a card for Starter or Pro. There is no paywall and nothing is deleted. You pick up on Free's limits, or upgrade whenever you are ready.

What's actually limited on the Free plan?

5 AI invoice reads a month, 5 recipes, and 1 team member. Invoice detail older than 30 days is capped, but your spend totals, charts, and CSV exports stay fully open. Nothing is ever locked behind a paywall you didn't agree to.

Does it connect to my accounting software?

On Pro, approved invoices push to Xero as Bills in one click (individually, or in bulk from the invoice list) with the original file attached and per-line VAT intact. Automatic scheduled sync is on the roadmap, not built yet. Starter and above can also export a purchases journal and cost-of-sales report as CSV for any accountant or accounting system.

Does it connect to my POS?

Not with a live sync today. Sales import via CSV, which most POS systems can export in a couple of clicks. We'd rather tell you that plainly than promise an integration that isn't built yet.

Where does my data live, and can I cancel?

Your data is isolated to your restaurant; no other account can see it. Billing is monthly with no long-term contract, handled by Paddle as our merchant of record, and you can cancel any time from Settings.

How does Stockpot compare with Foodrazor or MarketMan?

We keep a side by side table of plans, prices and features on its own page, with our sources and the date we checked them. See the comparison.
