Independent cafés, bottle shops, bakeries, and restaurants from Asheville to Brooklyn. They open at 6am, count cups at midnight, and have shared with us what changed.
"We built Kinventory for our own café, so we designed it to have everything a small business needs — without the bloat or the hefty price tag. It's like having an extra pair of eyes on your stockroom."
"We were the bottleneck. Now my opener pulls a low-stock report on her phone before the espresso machine warms up. I have not handwritten a 'milk?' note in eleven months."
"We use Square for everything. We tried two other inventory apps — both wanted CSV exports every night. Kinventory just works, the same minute the sale closes."
"I sell 700+ SKUs and only one of me is here on Mondays. The Pi scanner by the back door is the cheapest hire I've ever made. Receiving a delivery takes a third of the time."
"Track on Discard alone paid for the year. We were over-ordering cream cheese by something like 18%. Now I scan the empty tub and we order what we actually use."
"Running two cafés ten miles apart, I used to text the other manager four times a day. Now I just open the dashboard. The boring magic."
Connect Square, import your catalog, and have your back of house humming by tomorrow's open.
