The problem
Your restaurant is losing more than you think.
Every day, someone decides how much to prepare, what to buy and when to produce more. Most of those decisions are still made on instinct, and the cost doesn't show up as a single line.
- 01
Food waste
Prepared, never sold. Margin thrown away before the doors even open.
- 02
Stockouts
Best sellers run out while guests are still asking for them.
- 03
Unpredictable demand
Weather, events, a quiet Tuesday. Guesswork can't keep up.
- 04
Shrinking margins
Waste, labor and purchasing quietly erode what you earn.
Meet PrepIQ
From guesswork to intelligence.
Your restaurant makes hundreds of decisions every day. How much to prepare, what to buy, when to produce more, and what to do when food isn't selling.
PrepIQ is the intelligence behind those decisions. It connects your sales, kitchen operations, inventory and demand to help you reduce waste, prevent stockouts, protect your margins and make smarter decisions.

Recent Mondays averaged 54 kg. Rain from 16:00 moves lunch walk-ins to delivery; payday week lifts dinner.

PrepOrder
Connected product ecosystem
Demand becomes more useful before it reaches the kitchen.
PrepOrder makes customer interest visible. PrepIQ turns that demand context into better production, labor, and service decisions.
PrepOrder brings food in front of customers. PrepIQ helps the kitchen prepare for what those customers want.
Explore PrepOrderCustomers search, view and order on PrepOrder. That demand feeds PrepIQ, which turns it into a prep ticket for the kitchen: forecast demand, set prep and plan labor.
