Replace paper tickets with real-time tablet displays. Route orders to the right station automatically. Cut ticket time, reduce errors, serve faster.
Built from the ground up for restaurant kitchens — not adapted from a generic SaaS template.
Route each item to the right station automatically — by category, item, or modifier. Fryer sees fryer items. Grill sees grill items.
Green → yellow → red color coding shows kitchen staff which orders need urgent attention. No more guessing which ticket is oldest.
Kitchen staff enter a 4-digit PIN — no email, no password. Sessions auto-lock after inactivity. Managed from the admin portal.
One system for all your kitchen positions and all your branches. Each location gets its own stations and routing configuration.
Connects to your Clover POS via OAuth or API token. Orders appear on the KDS within 1 second of being placed. No manual re-entry.
All POS credentials are AES-256-GCM encrypted in the database. OAuth tokens refresh automatically — no manual token management.
No hardware to install. No complex setup. Works on any tablet browser.
Sign up, add your kitchen stations, and set your routing rules in the admin dashboard.
Link your Clover account with one OAuth click. Orders start flowing immediately.
Each tablet gets a 4-digit PIN. Staff enter the PIN and the KDS is ready — no accounts needed.
Orders appear on the right screen in real time. Staff bump tickets when done. That's it.
