Soustation

For caterers and kitchens that cook for events

More time for the food. Your sous has your back.

Enter each job once. Soustation gives every station its prep list, plans the deliveries and drafts the invoices, so you can get back to cooking.

Everything a good sous does, minus the attitude

Add jobs by voice

Describe an order the way you’d say it out loud. The customer, date, dishes and tray sizes are filled in for you to check.

A prep list for every station

Split your kitchen into stations, like the hot line or bakery. All of the day’s orders become one clear list per station: what to make, how much, and who it’s for.

The Staff view

Your cooks and drivers open a simple page on their own phones and see only what’s theirs for the day: their prep list or their deliveries. No asking around.

Invoices in seconds

Turn any job into an invoice through Square, PayPal, Venmo and more. You review it, send it, and see who still owes you.

Deliveries, planned for you

Assign your drivers in one tap and get the optimal route for each, so every order arrives on time.

Your whole team on the same page

Cooking and delivering are often done by different people, and hand-offs are where things slip. With the Staff view, everyone works from the same job: cooks see what to make and who it’s for, drivers see where, when and what’s in the order.

  • Each person sees only their own stations or stops
  • Works on any phone, nothing to install
  • Keeps working when the Wi-Fi drops

How it works

You make the calls. Soustation does the adding up and the remembering.

  1. 1

    Set up your kitchen once

    Bring in your menu, make your stations and say who works each one.

  2. 2

    Add each job

    Type it or say it. You look it over and save.

  3. 3

    Each station gets its prep list

    The day’s dishes are added up per station, with who each tray is for.

  4. 4

    Your team checks things off

    See what’s done from anywhere. If a job changes, the list points it out.

  5. 5

    Hand out the deliveries

    One tap per stop, the optimal route, and drivers get every detail to get it there right.

  6. 6

    Send the invoice and get paid

    Drafted from the job. You check it and press send.
