[ NOW ONBOARDING PILOT RESTAURANTS ]

The POS that never stops taking orders.

ThaliPOS is an AI-powered restaurant POS and operations platform. Counter POS, self-order kiosk, kitchen display, QR ordering, online ordering and delivery — one platform for your restaurant. It is offline-first, so when the internet goes down your store keeps selling, and it goes deeper than most systems on Indian restaurant workflows.

[ WHY THALIPOS ]

Most POS systems stop when the WiFi does.We started there and built backwards.

🔌

Never stop selling

Offline-first, for real

Every store runs on a local hub. Orders, kitchen tickets, and cash sales keep working with zero internet, then sync to the cloud exactly once when it's back. We test this on every single release. How offline-first works →

🧾

One system, every channel

No app juggling

Counter, kiosk, QR at the table, web pickup, and delivery-app orders all land on the same kitchen screen with the same menu. Change a price once — it's everywhere. See the platform →

AI where it actually helps

Not a gimmick

Import your whole menu from a photo or your current website in minutes. Get a morning brief on yesterday's numbers, and ask plain-English questions about your own restaurant. What the AI does today →

[ SOUND FAMILIAR? ]

The six things that actually go wrongbetween 7 and 9 on a Friday.

"Make it medium — no, mild for the kids."

Spice levels get agreed at the counter and lost on the way to the tandoor. Per-diner spice rides on the ticket, printed on the line it belongs to.

A thali is one price and eleven decisions.

Most POS systems make you fake it with modifiers. Composite plates are a real item type — pick two curries and a bread, one price, the kitchen sees every component.

Mithai goes on the scale, then into someone's head.

Weight, price per kilo, mental math, a queue building. Weigh-and-pay rings the exact gram straight onto the check — and onto the receipt the customer can check.

Four delivery tablets, all beeping.

Someone has to watch each one and retype it. Every channel lands on one kitchen screen with your menu, your prices, and one button to pause a channel when you're slammed.

The crew reads four different languages.

Tickets in English slow down the people cooking the food. The kitchen display speaks eight languages — each station can be set to the one that station reads.

The drawer never quite ties out at close.

Cash sales that only live on paper are cash you can't reconcile. Every tender reaches the books — cash included — and the day closes with a cent-exact report.

[ RUN A CALMER KITCHEN ]

Tickets that route themselves.A kitchen that reads its own language.

  • Station routing sends each item to the right screen — grill, fry, tandoor, dessert.
  • Elapsed-time cues flag aging tickets before guests feel it.
  • Batch cooking & refire for the rushes and the redos.
  • Eight display languages — English, Hindi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Punjabi, Bengali, Urdu — so every cook reads tickets in the language they think in.

Zero internet.Full service.

Your revenue shouldn't depend on your ISP. ThaliPOS puts a small hub in your store that runs the whole show locally — the cloud is a sync target, not a dependency.

[ WHO IT'S FOR ]

Built for kitchens of every kind —especially the ones other POS systems forgot.

🍛

Thali houses & dine-in

Built with these kitchens in the room: composite plates with real components, half and full portions, per-diner spice, table tags, and unlimited-refill service that doesn't confuse the check.

🥞

Dosa & tiffin centers

Morning rush at counter speed — batch cooking on the kitchen screen, keyboard shortcuts for cashiers who know the menu cold, and a status board so nobody shouts names.

🍚

Biryani houses

Handi counts that actually deplete as you sell, auto-86 when the last dum is gone, and delivery channels that never oversell what's left.

🥘

Chaat corners & street food

Speed-first POS, a kiosk to take the line off your counter, and cash handling that reconciles at close instead of at guesswork.

🍬

Sweet shops & mithai counters

Weigh-and-pay by the gram, barcode-ready boxed items, gift receipts, and Diwali pre-orders taken properly instead of on a WhatsApp thread.

🍜

Indo-Chinese & fusion

Deep modifier trees that stay fast — quantities on modifiers, kitchen shorthand on the ticket, and station routing that splits wok from tandoor.

🎪

Catering & events

Lead-time bands, staged deposits, guest counts that scale recipes nonlinearly, and event orders that never collide with the dinner rush.

🏢

Cloud kitchens & multi-brand

Several brands out of one kitchen, per-brand menus, pricing and theming, plus a central-kitchen mode for commissary transfers and production runs.

[ WHAT SITS ON YOUR COUNTER ]

Ordinary hardware. Nothing proprietary.Start with one screen. Add the rest when you need it.

🖥️

Counter station

A tablet or a small PC with a browser. Touch for speed, keyboard shortcuts for the cashier who knows the menu by heart.

📦

The store hub

One small box in the back. It holds your menu and your orders, and it's the reason the store keeps selling when the internet doesn't.

🍳

Kitchen screen

Any screen the line can read from three feet away — or keep your ticket printer if paper is what your kitchen trusts.

🙋

Kiosk

The same station, turned around to face the guest, in your branding with reach-mode and large-target layouts.

💳

Card reader

A tap-and-chip reader on Stripe's rails. Card data never passes through our software — that's an architecture choice, not a policy.

⚖️

Scale & scanner

A serial scale for mithai and sweets by the gram, and a plain keyboard-wedge barcode scanner for packaged goods.

🖨️

Printer & drawer

Standard ESC/POS receipt printers and a cash drawer that kicks on tender. No special models required.

📺

Order board

A TV on the wall showing what's cooking and what's ready, so the counter stops answering "is it done yet?"

You don't buy hardware from us. We tell you exactly what works, you buy it wherever it's cheapest, and pilot partners get it set up with them on the phone. If you already own screens and printers, we'd rather you kept them.

[ WORKS WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY USE ]

Your restaurant already runs on some of these.None of them should need a second screen.

[ FAQ ]

Questions, answered straight

What happens when my internet goes down?

Nothing, from your guests' point of view. The in-store hub keeps the POS, kiosk, and kitchen display running on your local network; orders and cash sales queue safely and sync to the cloud exactly once when the connection returns. Card-present payments need the internet (that's the card networks, not us) — cash keeps flowing.

Do you touch my card data?

Never. Payments run on Stripe's card-present readers, and card data goes straight from the reader to Stripe. Our software has no card-number fields anywhere — we enforce that with automated checks on every code change.

How long does setup take?

For a pilot restaurant: we import your menu (from a photo or your current online menu), configure your stations, and you're taking orders the same week. Pilot partners get white-glove onboarding from the founding team.

What does it cost?

Pilot pricing is intentionally simple and generous — we're earning our first partners. Email us and we'll talk real numbers for your restaurant, no games.

[ LET'S CHAT ]
