Every kitchen,
on the same thread.
Restaurant groups don't run on spreadsheets — they run on a hundred small conversations a day. One store is short. Another has excess. The commissary is receiving a delivery. Purchasing is arguing with a vendor about credit on a short case.
Fint keeps those conversations connected to the inventory underneath them.
- Between locations
- Transfers that both sides confirm
- At the back door
- Receiving with photos and shortages
- Across the group
- One view of stock and spend
Heard on the floor
This conversation
already happens.
None of this is new work. It's the work your team already does by message, radio, and phone call — and then re-types into a system later, or doesn't.
Fint connects those conversations to the business transactions underneath them.

Do you have tomatoes to spare? We're short for the weekend.
11:42Yes — sending 25 cases from the commissary today.
12:03A day in the operation
One day in food & restaurants.
Nothing below is a separate administrative task. Each one is the moment the work happened, recorded by the person who did it.
- 6:40 AM
The truck arrives
Receiving opens the delivery message and sees exactly what was ordered. They count, photograph a crushed case, and acknowledge. The shortage is on the vendor's record before the driver pulls out.
- 10:15 AM
A store runs short
Store 4 messages the commissary. The request becomes a MessageForm, the commissary confirms what it can send, and the transfer is on the afternoon route.
- 2:30 PM
The transfer lands
The receiving kitchen confirms what actually arrived — not what was supposed to. Inventory at both locations reflects reality, not intent.
- 9:50 PM
Close
Waste, temperature logs, and counts are already recorded because they happened as messages during service — not as paperwork afterwards.
MessageForms
The forms this industry actually needs.
These ship as part of the built ERP or get shaped to your process. If your business has a step that matters, it can become a MessageForm.
Stock request
A kitchen asks the commissary — or another store — for what it's short.
Goods receipt
Receive a vendor delivery against what was ordered, with photos.
Delivery exception
Short, damaged, substituted, or rejected — documented at the back door.
Temperature check
Walk-in, line, and holding logs recorded on a schedule.
Daily waste
What got thrown out, why, and what it cost — by location.
Prep & par count
Count against par, and let the request write itself.
Vendor issue
Short cases, late trucks, quality problems — with the thread attached.
Purchase approval
A manager approves an order without leaving the conversation.

Confirmed transfers
A transfer isn't done when it's sent. It's done when the receiving kitchen says what actually showed up.
At the door
Exceptions caught early
Shortages and damage get documented while the driver is still there, not at month end.
