Your toolkit
The 8 tools a café runs
Just what this kind of place needs — the bespoke tools for a café, each its own page.
Command
Floor & demand
Regulars & margin
Also on your main dashboard
This desk is the focused view. The full POS — billing, stock and the rest a café leans on — runs on your main dashboard, same account and data, so you run one system.
The centrepiece
Café fleet
Café fleet
Peak-seat overflow, milk & bean freshness, the subscription loyalty engine, win-backs and per-cup margin — each call shows its facts.
Fresh pastry: ~8 pc won't clear before it turns — ₹360 at risk
30 pc on hand, ~22 pc/day used, 1 day(s) of shelf-life left. Push a special, or trim the next order. Milk waste is the café's quietest leak.
Full-cream milk: ~8 L won't clear before it turns — ₹496 at risk
60 L on hand, ~26 L/day used, 2 day(s) of shelf-life left. Push a special, or trim the next order. Milk waste is the café's quietest leak.
~28 covers turned away at 12–3 PM — ₹6,860 left at the door
150 wanted a table in 12–3 PM but the room only seats ~122 at 62-min dwell. You don't rush regulars — but a peak minimum-spend, faster counter tickets, or steering campers to the 12–3 PM lull recovers seats without the awkwardness.
Kabir (was daily) hasn't been in for 16 days — was a 3×/week regular
A once-daily ₹220 customer has gone quiet. A "we miss you — next coffee's on us" note now is cheaper than winning a stranger later.
Feature Fresh pastry today — 1 day(s) of shelf-life left
30 pc on hand and turning soon. A same-day special — an extra pastry with a coffee, a milk-forward drink — sells it as revenue instead of writing it off as waste.
Roasted beans (house) below par — reorder before the morning rush
4.5 kg vs par 6 kg, ~2.1 day(s) of cover. Enough to open, not enough for a busy one.
3 daily regulars aren't on the Brew Pass — ₹11,051/mo of habit un-locked
Ananya (freelancer) comes 5×/week and isn't a member. The Daily Brew Pass (₹1,499/mo) converts that habit into prepaid, recurring revenue an aggregator never touches.
Cold Coffee margin is 73% — the milk/add-on is eating it
Costs ₹49 to make at ₹180; 71 sold today. Alt-milk and syrups are the usual culprits — a small surcharge or a tighter pour holds the margin.
Oat-milk Latte margin is 74% — the milk/add-on is eating it
Costs ₹58 to make at ₹220; 24 sold today. Alt-milk and syrups are the usual culprits — a small surcharge or a tighter pour holds the margin.
12–3 PM is your quietest window (150 covers) — program it
A workshop, a laptop-friendly "focus hour", or a members-only happy-hour turns the 12–3 PM lull into covers while leaving your peak pricing untouched.
