I'll update on-hand as you go.

It's your bar. Choose how you run it.

We'll just show you the difference.

Distributor invoices piling up on a bar counter
Guessing

The order gets swagged — a walk down the back bar and a gut call, close enough.

Counts get skipped because a real one eats half the night.

Invoices go in a drawer. The spreadsheet goes stale.

A price bump creeps through your pour cost. You find out at month end — if you find out at all.

Knowing

Orders build themselves from pars and velocity. The gut call becomes a review.

A count you can walk away from and pick up where you left off — it knows what's left.

Invoices get scanned and become live costs the day they land.

A price bump re-costs every recipe that pours it. You see it that day.

bartyndr exists because the person who built it runs a bar.

Fifteen minutes to your first order

Scan your invoices. bartyndr does the rest.

What makes it different

Invoice AI.

Your catalog builds itself from the paperwork you already have. It learns each distributor's format as it goes.

Live cost cascade.

Change one bottle price and every recipe that pours it re-costs itself. Your pour cost is always current, never a quarterly archaeology project.

Counts in minutes.

A counting flow built for the actual bar floor: one hand, low light, whole and partial bottles.

Smart order generation.

Smart orders from your on-hand and velocities — plus distributor minimums, cutoff days, and lead times. Flags what will stock out before the next truck. One tap to email the rep.

Software that respects a Friday night.

Counts happen whenever the bar allows — before open, mid-shift, after close. The flow is built for one hand and a busy room: whole bottles, quick weekly singles, zone by zone, minutes instead of hours. Your bartenders will actually use it, which is the entire point.

And when they spot something running low mid-shift, they flag it in two taps. It lands on the manager's order page.

This is built for bartenders as much as operators — not back-office software the floor has to tolerate.

Know your pour cost. Every night.

Every recipe carries its real cost, rolled up live from what you actually pay.

Velocity comes from your counts, so par alerts and days-on-hand reflect your bar, not an industry average.

House prep is costed too: your syrups and batches become priced ingredients, yield and all.

Spirit pricing runs on tiers, so a well price change reprices the shelf in one move.

Method
BUILD: Stir with ice 20–30 seconds. Strain over one large cube.
Tips, handled.Weekly pools per shift, even or by-hours splits, closed-week guard, export for payroll.
Receiving.Check the truck in against the order, reconcile shorts, on-hand updates itself.
Distributor profiles.Minimums, delivery days, cutoffs, and lead times per vendor.
The drink book.Every build, behind the bar, read-only. New bartenders stop asking how the house Old Fashioned goes.
Production sheets.House prep with measures, method, and yield, scaled to any batch size.
Roles that match your bar.Owners, managers, bartenders. Everyone sees what they need, nothing they shouldn't.
More than one bar?One login, switch instantly.
A real audit trail.Changes are logged, item renames included, owner-readable.
Par suggestions.When velocity says a par is off, bartyndr suggests the adjustment. You decide.
Order suggestions with judgment.Velocity, delivery cadence, and case logic — it suggests full cases when the math says so.
House recipes as inventory.A batch of syrup can be an inventory item — counted, costed, ordered against.
Batch building built in.Scale any recipe ×N behind the bar. Per-drink items get flagged so they're added fresh, not pre-batched.

Simple pricing. Prove it to yourself first.

Questions, answered

Do I need a POS integration?+

No. bartyndr works from your counts and invoices. Velocity comes from what you actually count, so there's nothing to wire up.

Does it work on my phone?+

Yes. bartyndr runs in the browser on desktop and phone today. A native iPad and iOS app is the goal on our roadmap.

How long does setup take?+

Under fifteen minutes if you have last week's invoices handy. Scan them, review a few flags, send an order.

Will it handle my distributors?+

Yes. Each vendor gets a profile with its minimums, delivery days, and cutoffs, and invoice scanning learns each one's paperwork.

Who can see what?+

You decide. Owner, manager, and bartender roles are enforced everywhere, and there's a full audit trail.

Stop guessing. Start knowing.

Your bar already produces all the data bartyndr needs. Put it to work.
