Looks like a cockpit because it is one — everything you need, visible at a glance.

Features that actually matter on event day

Fewer mistakes, faster prep, and shopping lists that don’t implode when orders change.
Events & client tracking

Create events, track guest count, status, notes, locations, timelines, and revenue — everything in one place.

Menu builder + packages

Build sandwich sets, platters, sides, desserts — price per person, per tray, or per unit. Reuse your winning menus.

Ingredient linking

Link ingredients to menu items with quantities so scaling from 40 → 140 guests updates everything automatically.

Store-sorted shopping lists

The signature feature: generate lists grouped by your stores (Costco, Sysco, local bakery, farmers market, etc.).

Cost + margin confidence

Know food cost, packaging cost, and estimated margin before you say yes. Price with confidence.

Prep timeline + checklist

Turn menus into a prep plan: what to do today, tomorrow, and the morning of the event — with checklists your team can follow.

A workflow that feels like a cockpit

Simple steps, no chaos. You always know what’s next.
1) Build the event

Client → date/time → guest count → location. Add notes, attachments, and status.

2) Pick the menu

Select packages or items. The app calculates quantities automatically.

3) Generate the shopping plan

One tap: lists grouped by store, with quantities scaled to your guest count.

4) Execute with confidence

Prep timeline + checklists keep you on schedule — even when things change last minute.

The “secret sauce”

CateringPilot isn’t just a list-maker. It’s a system that ties together:

Menus → Ingredients → Stores → Costs → Checklists

So when you edit one thing (like guest count), everything downstream updates cleanly.

FAQ

A few common questions before you launch this into the world.
Is CateringPilot for restaurants or catering businesses?

CateringPilot is built for catering workflows: events, menus, guest scaling, store-based shopping, and prep timelines.

What makes it different from generic inventory apps?

The linking. Menus connect to ingredients, which connect to stores — so scaling and shopping stays clean when things change.

Can I customize stores like Costco / Sysco / local bakery?

Yes — create your store list and assign ingredients to the correct store for one-tap shopping lists.

Will this support teams?

That’s on the roadmap. This page is ready for it — and when you’re ready we’ll add a “Team Mode” section.
