Everything between the shelf and the P&L

PourPoint is one loop: count what's there, compare it to what you sold, and act on the difference. These are the pieces that make that loop accurate.

Counting

The screen your staff actually use

If counting is slow or fiddly, it stops happening — and a variance report needs two counts to exist at all.

No signal in the cooler — entries are held and synced later

Shelf-to-sheet ordering

Map each storage area once, and every count lists bottles in the order they physically sit. Counters walk the shelf top to bottom and never backtrack.

Offline-safe writes

Every entry is queued on the device and flushed when the connection returns. The status badge always tells the truth, and a count cannot be closed with anything unsaved.

One-handed input

Large targets for sealed containers, a 5%-step slider for what is open. Designed for someone holding a bottle in the other hand.

Weigh the open bottle

Enter a gram reading and PourPoint works out the exact fraction left. Takes accuracy from about ±5% to ±1%.

Storage areas

Main bar, back bar, walk-in, store room — count the same product in several places and PourPoint adds them up.

Per-area progress

See who has counted what, and how far through they are, without standing over them.

Sorted by what it cost you — the order you fix them in

Variance

The number you're actually paying for

Expected closing stock is opening plus deliveries minus what the POS says you poured. The gap between that and your count is stock that left without being sold.

  • Product-by-product breakdown: opening, in, closing, used, should-have-used
  • Sorted worst-first in dollars, because that is the order you fix them in
  • Traffic-light status with an icon and a word — never colour alone
  • Small losses are marked on track regardless of percentage, so noise stays quiet
  • Filter by category or status, then export the lot as CSV
  • Switch between any two closed counts to see any period you like

Pour cost

Actual vs theoretical, side by side

One line is what your recipes and POS say should be happening. The other is what your counts say is happening. The gap is the part you can act on.

  • Venue-level pour cost against your own target
  • Per-category rates against per-category targets — beer and spirits are not the same
  • Twelve periods of history so you can see whether it's improving
  • A widening gap means the leak is growing; a flat gap with rising lines means costs rose
  • Every chart has a table view, so no number is only reachable by hovering

The supporting cast

The rest of the weekly job

Counting is only as good as the data it is measured against.

Product catalog

Cost, size, container type, units per case, par level, reorder point, barcode and bottle weights. Cost and size drive every number in the report.

Recipes & menu costing

Define what goes into each drink and PourPoint turns POS sales into expected pour volume. It also shows cost, margin and pour cost per drink.

Sales import

Any POS CSV with item, quantity and revenue. Columns are matched by header name, and rows that do not match a menu item are flagged rather than silently dropped.

Invoices

Log deliveries with line detail. Recording one updates that product's cost, so a supplier price rise appears in the next report instead of quietly eating your margin.

Par levels & ordering

Everything below its reorder point, grouped by supplier, with the quantity that brings it back to par. Copy to clipboard or export as CSV.

Reports

Pour cost trend, loss per period, category breakdown and biggest leaks — with a table view behind every chart.

Under the hood

Things you shouldn't have to think about

Your data is yours

Every venue is isolated at the database level. Passwords are hashed with scrypt and sessions are stored as hashes, so a database leak is not a login.

Money is exact

Every amount is stored as whole cents, never a floating point number. Your totals add up to the penny.

Roles

Owners see everything, managers run the venue, counters get the counting screen. More granular permissions come with the Pro plan.

Find out what your bar is losing

Set up takes an afternoon. Your first variance report lands after your second count.
