Take the order with your hands full
Speak the order out loud — "one large oat latte, extra shot, for Maya" — and KeroIQ fills the defaults, prices it, reads it back, and only places it when you say so. Both hands stay on the machine.
For coffee carts
One person, six feet of counter, no spare hand.
You are the barista, the cashier, the marketing department and the accountant. KeroIQ is the only one of those you can hand off today.
What goes wrong on a cart
Three places software built for a counter assumes a cart doesn't have.
1
Both hands are wet
Steaming milk and pulling a shot leaves no hand free for a screen. Every POS built for a counter assumes you have one to spare — a cart never does.
2
The line reads as chaos
Six people deep with no register to hide behind, and a single misheard modifier turns into a redo. Names, drinks and modifiers have to stay straight without a ticket printer.
3
You close out at midnight
The cart's packed up and you're at the kitchen table piecing together what sold, what you're out of, and whether next weekend's market is even worth it — from receipts and memory.
What KeroIQ hands off first
A queue that keeps itself honest
Say a drink is ready and the board advances, the next ticket surfaces, and the name stays attached to the order the whole way through the rush.
Ask instead of closing out at midnight
What the day did, what to prep tomorrow, and the top seller — ask on the drive home and get a spoken answer. No spreadsheet, no export.
Change the menu mid-rush
Ran out of oat milk? Say so, and it stops being orderable across your order screen, queue and online board at once — no digging through a settings screen with a line at the window.
Order-ahead, made fresh
Regulars pay from their phone and the ticket stays held until they walk up — nothing sits going cold waiting for a pickup that's running late.
Permit automation for the mobile lane
KeroIQ ships permit and compliance tracking built for a mobile cart — Contra Costa County is fully supported today, with more jurisdictions added on operator demand.
“There was no operating system that really helped the solo cart operator. That's the person I built this for first.”
Todd — founder, KeroIQ
