Inside the KDS

Every station sees exactly what it needs

Station routing

Each station sees only its items, in sequence, so cooks aren't reading a wall of unrelated tickets.

Course pacing

Fire courses on cue so starters, mains, and desserts land when the table is ready for them.

Bump & recall

Bump finished items and recall them instantly if something needs a second look.

Ready alerts

Mark items ready and signal the pass or front-of-house so nothing sits under the heat lamp.

Offline-safe

Tickets keep flowing even if the network drops, so the kitchen never goes dark.

Ticket timing

See how long tickets take so you can spot bottlenecks and tighten your prep.

How it works

From fire to pass

01

Order fires

Items route to each station's screen in the order they should be made.

02

Cooks work the list

Each station works a clean, sequenced list and bumps items as they finish.

03

Ready to the pass

Finished items signal the pass and front-of-house so service stays in sync.
