The platform

Everything around the till.

Card payments and ordering are the start. The same platform runs your screens, your stock, your staff hours and your reporting, on the data the till already collects.

Screens Live

Menu boards and campaign screens, run from head office.

Caterly Screens turns the displays in your canteens into one managed channel. Head office sets the brand and the campaigns, each site adds its own notices, and the platform tells you what played where.

  • Media library for images, PDFs and video, with a head-office override so brand content always wins
  • Campaigns for every site or just some, with start and end dates and a fallback playlist so no screen goes blank
  • Drag-and-drop playlists with per-item timing; head-office and local content labelled apart
  • Preview the exact rotation for any site before it goes up
  • Serve report of what played, with an estimated reach, exported to Excel
  • Online and offline monitoring with an alert when a screen drops

Menu changes made once reach the till, the app, the kiosk and the boards together. Hardware is supplied as countertop screens, 43″ or 50″ wall panels, and the customer-facing screen on the POS.

Stock and inventory Live

From recipe to shelf, deducted as you sell.

Stock is tied to the till. Each sale deducts from the kitchen’s stock, so what you see on hand is what is on the shelf, and counts, wastage and orders all sit in the same place.

  • Recipes built with ingredient-level costing
  • Bulk and kitchen stores per site, with transfers between them
  • Stock on hand, its value, days remaining and low-stock alerts
  • Stock counts with expected-versus-counted variance in rand, and an approval step
  • Wastage recorded with a reason, so the variance report explains itself
  • Purchase orders from draft to goods received, and a consumption forecast from demand and what is on order

AI-driven forecasting and ordering suggestions are on the roadmap; today’s forecast is built from your sales and stock history.

Time and attendance In pilot

Clock in on the till that’s already there.

Staff clock in and out on the Caterly POS or kiosk at the site, so hours sit next to that shift’s sales without another device to buy or another system to reconcile.

  • Clock in and out on the POS or kiosk
  • Hours logged per shift, per site
  • Export for payroll processing
  • Optional facial, fingerprint or RFID readers where you want them

Running at our own office today and ready to pilot at a customer site. Suited to sites that don’t need a dedicated workforce system.

Asset register Available

Know what’s where, in every site.

A register of the physical assets in each environment, whether that is a school tuck shop, a hospital kitchen or a retail site, kept on the same platform as the sites and users you already manage.

  • Each asset recorded against its site and location, with serial number and details
  • Check-in and check-out so you know who has what
  • Last-checked dates, so audits and insurance schedules come from the register, not a spreadsheet
  • Reports per site or across the group

Ask us which asset types and check routines you need; the register is configured per customer.

Reporting and AI insight In development

Live dashboards today. A layer that tells you what matters next.

Every site reports live today: sales, participation, items, stock and staff, rolled up from site to region to head office. We are building an AI layer on top of that data so the platform points out what needs attention rather than waiting to be asked.

  • Ask a question in plain language, such as why sales dropped at a site last week, and get an answer from your own data
  • A feed of flags, ranked by urgency, each with a suggested action
  • Sites falling behind their own trend or their peers, stock-outs, overstock and odd voids or discounts, surfaced early
  • Suggested promotions with the customer message drafted for you
  • Nothing goes live on its own: the platform proposes, your team approves

The AI layer is in development, starting with schools and workplace canteens. Reporting dashboards are available now.

On request

Built for the way some sites run.

Some modules we switch on only where they fit: loyalty programmes on the POS and app, and laundry management for camp and remote sites. Ask us and we’ll show you what’s running.

See the platform running on your menus.

Tell us which sites and which modules, and we’ll put a demo together.
