Built for weekly preorders
From cutoff to pickup without spreadsheet chaos
OS Kitchen connects weekly menus, confirmed orders, production, and pickup — so service day reflects what customers actually bought.
Preorder cutoff enforcement
Lock ordering before production day so your kitchen cooks to confirmed volume — not optimistic guesses.
Pickup window capacity
Slot-based pickup when configured — spread handoffs across service windows instead of one chaotic hour.
Production board
Batch prep from confirmed orders. Yield-aware quantities when recipes are configured in your workspace.
Branded storefront
Hosted preorder site with Stripe checkout when configured. Customers order online; ops runs one queue.
Packing by customer or route
Lane sheets grouped for verification before handoff — reduce wrong-bag mistakes on pickup day.
Counter POS for walk-ins
Software POS for same-day add-ons alongside weekly preorders — no proprietary terminal lease required.

AI modules
7 proprietary AI modules in production
Each module ships in the codebase at qualified maturity — pilot proof in progress, not magic for every workflow or tenant.
AI Restaurant Brain
Pilot readyDeterministic daily briefing on Today Command Center from hub, KDS, and inventory signals.
Digital Twin
BETAStation load simulation from live order flow — planning view, not a physical IoT mirror.
Universal Menu Engine
BETACross-channel menu structure with sync hooks — channel maturity varies per integration.
Food Cost AI
Pilot readyRecipe costing and margin alerts when recipes and yields are configured accurately.
AI Purchasing
BETAEOQ-style reorder suggestions with buyer approval gate — deterministic math, not autopilot POs.
Kitchen Camera AI
BETACamera-ready station view with detection module slots — synthetic preview by default.
Benchmark Network
BETAAnonymized cohort comparisons — illustrative until cohort N grows beyond early pilots.
Not autonomous AGI, guaranteed margin lift, or live computer vision without per-module evidence in your workspace.
B2B marketplace
HoReCa buyer marketplace (BETA scaffold)
Catalog → cart → checkout → purchase order path for commissary buyers — engineering shipped; vendor seeding and pilot tenants required.
Buyer catalog
Browse vendor SKUs by HoReCa category when vendors are onboarded in your workspace — not a live national vendor network yet.
Cart & checkout
Checkout creates purchase orders with approval gates where configured — Stripe Connect vendor onboarding in test scope.
Ops handoff
POs flow into inventory and purchasing workflows on the same spine as POS and channel orders when configured.
Say scaffold live in engineering — 0 signed marketplace customers at pre-scale. Not Amazon Business or Sysco parity.
Honest limitations
We label maturity honestly — no fake LIVE badges or marketplace parity claims.
- Marketplace delivery apps (Uber Eats, DoorDash) remain partner-gated — not unified live ops claims.
- Cross-channel inventory depletion is POS-scoped today — not full unified stock across Woo/Shopify unless configured and proven.
- Native meal-plan subscriptions are BETA — WooCommerce Subscriptions bridge is read-only placeholder.
- Enterprise SSO and SCIM are not production-certified — pilot scope only.
- AI Restaurant Brain briefing on Today is deterministic — not LLM magic or guaranteed revenue lift.
- HoReCa B2B marketplace is BETA scaffold — 0 signed marketplace customers at pre-scale.
Weekly preorder FAQ
Questions from weekly preorder brands
Cutoffs, storefront checkout, pickup slots, and trial scope — answered without overpromising automation.
How is this different from meal prep software?
Same OS Kitchen platform — this landing focuses on weekly menu + cutoff + pickup workflows for brands that run recurring preorder cycles (bakeries, meal boxes, specialty food).
Can customers order after the cutoff?
Cutoff rules are enforced on the storefront when configured — after cutoff, the weekly menu closes for production planning. Same-day counter orders can still flow through POS when enabled.
Do you replace my existing website?
OS Kitchen includes a branded storefront option. You can also ingest orders from WooCommerce or Shopify in BETA when configured — see integration health before claiming live sync.
