Kitchens first
Technology should adapt to kitchens — not the other way around.
About PrepIQ
Building the operational intelligence layer for professional kitchens.
PrepIQ helps restaurants and hotels make better daily decisions through forecasting, production planning, inventory intelligence, and real-time operational insights.
Our mission is simple: Help every kitchen waste less, prepare smarter, and become more predictable every single day.
Our Story
Why PrepIQ exists
Restaurants make hundreds of operational decisions every day, yet many still rely on spreadsheets, intuition, and disconnected systems.
We built PrepIQ to bridge that gap. Rather than replacing chefs or existing POS systems, PrepIQ acts as an intelligence layer — learning from kitchen operations, forecasting demand, reducing waste, and helping teams make better decisions before problems happen.
Every day a kitchen uses PrepIQ, it becomes a little smarter.

Decisions over dashboards
Information only matters if it helps someone make a better decision.

Learn continuously
Every service, every adjustment, every day teaches the system something new.
