Take orders, run the route, invoice and get paid. Your customers never need an account.
A catalog with a price list per customer, standing orders that create themselves, routes with the stops in the best order, invoices with a pay link and QR code, and payouts to your bank. Plus the schedule and timecards for drivers and the warehouse.
Before and after, for food distributors and commissaries
Orders arrive by text, email and voicemail
One order list. Customers on Fork order in the app; the rest email or call and you enter it in seconds
Invoices chased for weeks
A pay link and QR code on every invoice, card or bank transfer, reminders handled by Stripe
Drivers working from a printed list
A Deliveries tab with the stops in order and a photo at each one
Every customer needs an account for your portal
No account needed. A customer can claim theirs later with the email on file
Standing orders that write themselves
Every Monday, 24 sourdough. The order is generated ahead of time and emailed for confirmation. Change one week without touching the rest. A short case or a damaged crate becomes an issue on the order and a credit on the invoice.
- Customer-specific catalogs and price lists
- Standing orders generated ahead and emailed for confirmation
- Import customers, items and open orders from a spreadsheet
- Issues and credits on the order, taken off the invoice automatically
Invoices that get paid
Turn a delivered order into an invoice. The customer gets an email with the PDF and a pay link; the PDF carries a QR code for the ones who print. They pay by card or US bank transfer and the payout lands in your bank.
- Payment terms per customer: prepaid, COD, Net 7, 15, 30 or 60
- Card and US bank transfer through Stripe, paid out to your bank
- QR code on the PDF for customers who print
- Paid, failed and refunded states sync back to the order
Deliver on the best route
Pick the day's orders and Fork orders the stops on real road distances, with an ETA per stop. The driver gets a Deliveries tab on their phone and checks off each stop with a photo.
- Stop order optimized on real road distances, ETAs per stop
- Driver checks off each stop with a photo as proof of delivery
- Orders move to Delivered as they are dropped
- Proof of delivery stays on the order for disputes
Drivers, packers and bakers on one schedule
The same app schedules the people behind the orders. Shifts by route and by station, clock-in from the phone with GPS or the warehouse kiosk, and production checklists and cold-chain temperature logs when you add Premium.
- Shifts by route and by station, published to every phone
- GPS clock-in from the van, kiosk at the warehouse
- Team chat by depot, announcements with confirmations
- Production checklists and cold-chain temperature logs (Premium)
