Receipts and delivery notes everywhere
The supplier leaves the note on the bar, the receipt ends up in the till and half of it is missing at month end. Without the paperwork, cost control is impossible.
Bars and cafés
Less paperwork behind the bar
A clear daily till, receipts that record themselves and supplier orders in two taps. So your time goes to your customers.
In a bar or a café there's no back office and no dead hours: management happens standing up, between services. That's why Hostelella is built for your pocket — snap the supplier receipt and the AI records it; glance at your phone and you know how today's till is going.
Behind the app there's more: an operations team that can handle your purchasing, watch your costs and organise your shifts, with a clear method and a monthly review. We start with a free 45–60 minute assessment where we analyse your till, your purchases and your waste, and you leave with a margin plan full of concrete actions.
The app is free today, no card and no lock-in. And one rule that never changes: you confirm every record. The AI proposes; you have the final say.

What eats a bar's profit
The till doesn't balance
POS sales, cash expenses, tips… balancing the till by hand every night steals hours and still leaves gaps nobody can explain.
Orders from memory
You order “the usual” by phone or WhatsApp, without comparing prices or recording quantities. Every improvised order is margin walking out the door.

Frequently asked questions
Questions from behind the bar
I don't have time to learn new software. Is it complicated?
No. The app is made to be used standing up, one-handed: snap the receipt, glance at the till and little more. Setup takes 24 hours and your team learns it in the first shift.
Is it useful if I only want to control the till and receipts?
Yes. Use only what you need — daily till and OCR receipts, for example — and switch on the rest (orders, shifts, chat) whenever you want. The app is free today.
How do supplier orders work?
Pick the supplier, set the quantities and the order goes out by email with your team in copy. Everything is recorded, and when the delivery note arrives it's matched against what was ordered.
What does the management service actually do in a bar?
The most valuable thing: buy better. We review your purchases, compare suppliers and negotiate prices; we also organise shifts and bring you the numbers every month. The free assessment tells you how much margin there is to recover.
