REGULARS
The barista should know.
Loyalty, preferences, last orders: visible at the till the moment a customer pays.
FOR CAFÉS
Fast counter.
Loyal customers.
Honest books.
POS, loyalty, payroll, and accounting: for the place where speed matters more than configuration.
Pressure points
Where the day gets hard.
These are the moments operators mention first. Kotao is built around them, not around a feature list.
TIPS
Tip pools that work.
Tip distribution rules tied to scheduled hours. Payroll runs on the same data. No spreadsheets.
Operating day
Ready for the morning rush.
Plan your range, counter sales, and replenishment together.
Before the first coffee
Prepare products, sizes, extras, and prices. Review stock for the counter and kitchen.
At the counter
Handle orders and payments at the register. The team works from one product range.
At the end of the day
Review sales and stock movements and plan replenishment for tomorrow.

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.
