tSpoonLab
tSpoonLab is a software ecosystem for professional kitchens, combining the tspoonBack WebApp, tspoonFast app, and personal advice. tspoonBack manages and analyzes menus, purchases, sales, warehouses, and inventory across a business’s points of sale. Recipe tools support production sheets, cost and ingredient control, shared preparations, and standardized processes. Purchasing tools centralize buying activity and support supplier comparison and negotiation. For daily operations, tspoonFast supports voice-based orders and inventories, delivery-note capture by photo, checklists, waste tracking, transfers between cost centers, and production-sheet lookup. Production-kitchen tools add weekly planning and event management, including purchasing, production, profitability, allergens, staffing, and logistics. Food-safety functions cover lots, expiration dates, traceability, nutrition, allergens, and critical control points, and can generate APPCC checklists. Integrations cover POS, ERP, and e-commerce partners; ERP data can also be exported via API, CSV, or SFTP. Platforms include Android, iOS, web, and API. Plans start at €95 a month, and a no-obligation trial is offered.
