RestaurantMate

Ordering

Every vendor,
one cart.

Your order guide lives in one place, priced by every vendor you buy from. Overnight, purchasing agents gather the latest prices from every portal, so the cart you open in the morning is already current. Approve it once and agents place each vendor order before cutoff.

01

Open the cart

A suggested order is already waiting, built from your counts and pars, priced with the numbers agents gathered overnight.

02

Trim and swap

Move items between vendors as prices dictate. Shift a case to the vendor who is $3 cheaper this week and the totals follow you line by line.

03

Approve once

Agents sign in to each vendor and place every order before its cutoff, then save the confirmations.

One order guide

Every item you buy, organized your way, with pars and on-hand counts beside live vendor pricing. Agents refresh those prices overnight, so the guide is current when you open it.

Case and each pricing

Prices normalized deterministically to the unit you think in, from pack math you can audit, never AI guesses. A $67.20 case of four gallon jugs reads $16.80 a jug, and the math is right there on the item.

Agents place the orders

After your approval, purchasing agents sign in to each vendor portal and place every order, exactly like you would. Confirmation numbers are saved to the order the moment each vendor issues them.

Works offline

The order guide keeps working in the walk-in, then syncs when you are back in signal. Counts entered offline flow straight into the next suggested cart.

Built around your cutoffs

Most owners order minutes before a weekday cutoff. RestaurantMate is designed for that window: agents gather fresh prices from every portal overnight, and a suggested cart built from your counts and pars is waiting when you open the app. Review takes minutes, not the whole morning.

  • Fresh portal prices gathered overnight, every night
  • Suggested cart from counts, pars, and order history
  • Trim, swap vendors, and approve in one screen
  • Orders placed with minutes to spare

Approval is the contract

Nothing is ever purchased without your yes. Overnight the agents only gather prices and invoices; ordering happens in the day, after you approve. Agents shop the cart you approved, line by line, and every action is tied to the approval that authorized it.

  • Per-order review before anything is placed
  • No orders placed at night, ever
  • Substitutions surfaced, never silently accepted
  • A full trail from approval to confirmation to invoice

Good to know

Can I keep ordering by phone for one vendor?

Yes. Keep any vendor manual and RestaurantMate still tracks its deliveries, invoices, and prices alongside the rest.

What happens if a vendor is out of an item?

Substitutions are surfaced for your call, never silently accepted. The cart shows the alternative and its price before anything is placed.

Does the cart understand pack sizes?

Yes, deterministically. Cases, splits, and weights are converted with explicit pack math you can audit, never guesses.

Do the agents ever order on their own?

No. Overnight they only gather prices and invoices; nothing is placed at night. Ordering happens in the day, and only after you approve the cart.
