PEAK
Friday at midnight.
Tabs that hold dozens of items. Round-with-friends splits. POS that doesn't lag.
FOR BARS
Faster service.
Less waste.
Honest tabs.
POS, inventory, table plan, payroll: for the room that fills up between 10 PM and 2 AM.
Pressure points
Where the day gets hard.
These are the moments operators mention first. Kotao is built around them, not around a feature list.
INVENTORY
Bottles vanish. Track them.
Pour cost tracked per drink, per bartender. Variance reports the next morning.
Operating day
From shift start to last orders.
Organise drinks, service, and closing together.
Prepare the shift
Check drinks, prices, and registers. Prepare team access and stock for the evening.
During the evening
Process orders and payments and keep outstanding transactions in view at the register.
After last orders
Review sales, payments, and inventory. Prepare the handover for the next shift.

Implementation
Not all at once. All expandable.
A good rollout follows operational pressure. First the workflow blocking the team today, then the adjacent apps, then automation and reporting.
