AI Inventory Management App Builder for Restaurants
The stock spreadsheet breaks the moment two people edit it. Tell Mythex what your restaurant tracks and it builds a proper inventory tool with a history you can trust.
Who it's for
Managers at restaurants who need to know what is running out before a diner finds out first.
What you can build
- An item list with quantity, unit and location
- Stock in and stock out, with who and when
- Low-stock alerts and a reorder list
- Categories for the à la carte menu and set lunches
- A stocktake screen for counting on a phone
How restaurants work
A restaurant runs two services a day with a prep cycle in between: ordering produce, prepping, service, cleanup. Bookings come by phone during the busiest hours, and weekends, holidays and local events drive demand. Many restaurants juggle a POS, a paper or phone diary, delivery apps and supplier invoices, while private dining inquiries sit in email. Margins are thin, so food cost, labor and table turns matter a lot, and software helps most with bookings, stock and rotas.
What inventory app for Restaurants has to handle
- Ingredients should be counted in kitchen units such as kilos, liters, bunches and cases.
- Each item needs a par level for every ordering day so orders are consistent.
- Wastage must be logged with a reason, such as spoiled, over-prepped or returned.
- Suppliers, delivery days and order cutoffs should be attached to each item.
A tip for restaurants
Log wastage every night, even roughly. Within a few weeks it shows which dishes are over-prepped and which ingredients spoil before use, and trimming those is often the quickest way to bring food cost down without touching the menu.
A prompt to start from
Build an inventory app for a restaurant. Track items with name, category, quantity, unit, location, cost and a reorder level. Record stock movements in and out with a date, a quantity and who did it, and keep the running balance correct. Add low-stock alerts, a search, categories for the à la carte menu, set lunches and private dining, a stocktake screen that works on a phone, and user login. Use a database.
Questions
Can inventory track wastage?
Yes, you can log wasted items with a reason and quantity and see totals by week and by ingredient.
Does it keep a history?
Yes. Every movement is a row: what changed, by how much, when and by whom. That is the part a shared spreadsheet loses, and the reason the numbers stop matching the shelf.
Can I use it on a phone in the storeroom?
Ask for it and the counting screen is built for a phone. Barcode scanning through the phone camera is a sentence away too.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You describe what you want in plain language and Mythex writes the code, shows a live preview, and lets you change things by chatting. The code editor and terminal are there if you ever want them.
Do I have to explain my business every time?
No. Mythex remembers who you are and how you work across every project, and follows the standing notes you set for a project, so you are not re-briefing it in each new chat. You can read, edit or switch all of it off.
How much does it cost?
There is a Free plan with daily credits, enough to build and publish a first version. Pro is $25/month and adds full code editing, GitHub export, custom domains, and credit top-ups.
