For restaurant kitchens
Walk the storage with your phone. Pars turn the count into each vendor’s order. Send it by email, text, or WhatsApp before you leave the floor.
How it works
No second spreadsheet. No rewrite at the desk after the walk.
Open a storage area and count what is there. Large type, a keypad, and Next. When the walk is finished, the count is finished.
Each item can have a par. OrderWalk puts the gap on that vendor’s order. You are not rebuilding the list by hand at the desk.
Produce does not get the dairy order. Send all walks the vendors that still have lines and opens the mail, text, or WhatsApp you already use.
Features
For the owner or kitchen manager who orders from a walk-in, a dry cage, and a few vendors. Not a warehouse system.
Pars and the order
Open a vendor and the short items are there, with par, on-hand, and the quantity to order. Fill from par if you want the gap written in. Check it, then send. The screenshot is the sample kitchen in the demo.
Send
Email, text, or WhatsApp. OrderWalk fills the message and opens it. A phone can only hand off one of those at a time, so Send all walks the list. You can also copy a link that shows the lines still to order, without prices.
Invoices
On the paid plan, after the trial, photograph the invoice or upload the PDF. The image is read so you can confirm the lines. A unit price above what you last paid is flagged. The shot here is the capture screen. The demo does not send the photo.
Language
The app switches with the language in Settings, or with the phone. Vendor order text stays in English so the vendor is not reading a mix. Spanish is on the free plan.
Invite a manager or a counter. Team mode can put a name on a count. Counters count. Managers and the owner run orders, invites, and reminders.
Paste lines or bring in a CSV with name, unit, par, vendor, and storage area. The spreadsheet does not have to come onto the floor with you. On the free plan.
A reminder for the days you count, and one before an order cutoff if that order still has lines. Paid plan. Push when the phone supports it, and a banner in the app either way.
It is a website. Add it to the Home Screen and it sits with your other apps. The kitchen you already opened stays on the phone when the walk-in has no signal. Sign-in and invoice reading need a connection.

|---|---|---|---|
| On the floor | Paper, or a sheet back at a desk. | A phone, shelf by shelf. | Often a different receiving workflow. |
| The order | You retype the count. | Pars fill each vendor’s gap from the same list. | A purchasing module, after a rollout. |
| Sending | A photo of the list, or copy and paste. | Email, text, or WhatsApp, one vendor at a time. | A vendor portal or a buying desk. |
| Prices | Someone remembers the last invoice. | A photo can flag a higher unit price. Paid plan, after the trial. | Usually a contract price file. |
| Who it fits | One cook and a pencil. | One location and a small team. Multi-location is later. | Many sites, and a project to get there. |
| Cost | Free, and a second list to maintain. | Free for one location. Paid price is not set. | Usually a contract. We do not quote one. |
