Build an order and delivery management app for your cloud kitchen
A cloud kitchen loses money in the gap between three aggregator tablets, a WhatsApp inbox, and a shouting expo line. Orders land on Swiggy at the same second Zomato pings and a regular pings you on WhatsApp for their usual, and someone has to key each one into the kitchen. Kashvi lets you describe the exact board your line needs in plain English and builds a real order and delivery app around it: one live ticket queue, one prep timer, direct UPI checkout for repeat customers, and code you own end to end.
Most order tools are built for a single storefront. A cloud kitchen is the opposite problem: multiple virtual brands, three or four delivery channels, and one physical kitchen that has to fire them all without dropping a ticket. Kashvi builds for that reality. You tell it you run four brands out of one prep line, that Swiggy and Zomato orders arrive as separate channels, and that WhatsApp orders should land on the same board as a manual entry, and it generates the data model, the login for your kitchen staff, and the live screens on top of it.
What a cloud kitchen actually needs on the board
- One consolidated ticket queue where Swiggy, Zomato, WhatsApp and walk-in orders sit side by side, colour-coded by channel and sorted by promise time.
- Per-brand routing so an order for your biryani brand and one for your momo brand print or display under the right station even though they share a kitchen.
- A prep and packing timer that flips a ticket from cooking to ready to picked-up, so nothing sits cold on the pass and no rider waits blind.
- Direct UPI checkout for your own repeat customers, so a regular ordering over WhatsApp pays you straight instead of routing a 25-30 percent commission through an aggregator.
- Rider and pickup tracking: which order went to which delivery partner, marked handed over, with a running settlement view per channel.
- Live sales by brand, by channel and by hour, plus item-level counts so you know when to prep the next batch of gravy before you run out mid-rush.
The commission math is why the UPI piece matters so much in India. An aggregator order can lose a quarter of its value to platform fees before you have bought a single onion. When you nudge your loyal customers to reorder over WhatsApp and pay by UPI, that order arrives on the same board but keeps its full margin. Kashvi wires a Razorpay-backed UPI checkout into the app so that direct channel is a first-class button, not an afterthought you bolt on later.
How Kashvi builds it from a prompt
You describe the app in a sentence or two. Kashvi provisions a real Postgres database (orders, brands, channels, riders, menu items), sets up staff sign-up and login so your kitchen manager and line cooks see the right screens, and renders a live preview you can click through in seconds. It ships as a web dashboard for the pass screen and as real Android and iOS apps via React Native, so a rider or a floor manager can carry the board on a phone. Every line of code is downloadable and yours, with no proprietary runtime holding your kitchen hostage. If a generation fails, the credit is refunded, so you are never charged for a broken build.
Try: "Build an order board for a cloud kitchen running four brands. Pull Swiggy, Zomato and WhatsApp orders into one queue sorted by delivery deadline, route each order to the right brand station, and show a prep timer per ticket."
Try: "Add a direct-order flow where a repeat customer picks items and pays by UPI through Razorpay, and that order appears on the same kitchen board as a channel called Direct."
Try: "Give me a settlement screen that shows, per channel per day, order count, gross sales, commission taken, and net payout, with a filter by brand."
Try: "Add rider handover tracking: mark an order ready, assign it to a delivery partner, and log the pickup time, then push an Android app version for the floor manager."
| Kitchen problem | What the generated app does |
|---|---|
| Orders scattered across three tablets | One queue merging every channel, sorted by promise time |
| Two brands, one line, mixed-up tickets | Per-brand station routing on shared prep |
| Aggregator commission eating margin | Direct UPI checkout for repeat customers |
| Riders waiting or leaving without food | Prep timer plus ready and handover states |
| No idea which brand actually earns | Sales and item counts by brand, channel and hour |
Because you own the code, you are not locked into how Kashvi first drafts it. Grow another virtual brand next quarter and you add it as a row, not a migration project. Want the settlement export to match your accountant's GST format? Ask Kashvi to add a GST-ready export and it regenerates the screen. The app scales with your kitchen instead of the other way around.
Questions
Frequently asked
- Can it actually pull orders in from Swiggy and Zomato automatically?
- Kashvi builds the consolidated board, the per-channel data model, and manual and direct-order entry out of the box. Live aggregator feeds depend on the marketplace API access your account has; because you own the code, you can connect those partner APIs into the same board without rebuilding the app.
- How does the direct UPI ordering cut commission?
- The generated app includes a Razorpay-backed UPI checkout for your own customers. When a regular reorders through your direct link or WhatsApp and pays by UPI, the money comes to you and the order still shows on the kitchen board as a Direct channel, so you keep the full margin instead of paying an aggregator fee.
- Can my line cooks and floor manager have different access?
- Yes. Kashvi sets up real sign-up and login, so you can give kitchen staff the ticket queue and prep timer while a manager sees settlement and sales screens. You describe who should see what and it builds the roles in.
- Does it work on a phone for riders and floor staff?
- It ships as a web dashboard for the pass screen and as real Android and iOS apps built with React Native, so a floor manager or rider can carry the board on a phone and mark handovers on the move.
- What happens if a build fails or I want changes later?
- If an AI generation fails, the credit is refunded, so you are never billed for a broken build. And since every line of code is downloadable and yours, you can keep asking Kashvi to add brands, exports or screens as your kitchen grows.
