Common questions
- What do I get for free?
- Five tables on the real thing — QR ordering, waiter panel, GST bills and SpiceBot menu chat. Not a trial that runs out.
- How fast can I start?
- The free tier switches on straight away. Menu, tables and QR codes take about a day.
- What do the paid plans cost?
- The rupee amounts on the cards are from the live billing catalogue. They update when a plan is changed in superadmin.
- Do waiters need their own till?
- No. They carry a phone app: tables, guest calls, serve, cash or UPI, and table OTPs. Cashiers, hosts and captains use the same app with their own job showing.
- Do I need to buy machines?
- No. Your guest uses their own phone. Your staff and kitchen screens run in a browser.
- What if I open a second place?
- You move onto the franchise plans. Same system, nothing to rebuild.
How we're different
Most Indian POS software was built around the billing counter, then grew apps around it. We started at the table instead.
Here's the honest version. Us first — then Petpooja, DotPe, Restroworks (Posist) and LimeTray. Everything in their columns comes from their own websites.
| The question | UsEatomatic | Petpooja | DotPe | Restroworks | LimeTray |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Where does the guest order? | The QR is the system. The guest's phone is the ordering screen, by default, on every plan.QR-first, not QR-added | Scan & Order is sold as a separate add-on that plugs into the POS. | QR Solutions is its own product line. They also integrate with other POS systems. | RestroScan — QR ordering in a customer-experience suite, next to the POS. | Website, own app and aggregator orders. Table QR is not how they introduce the product. |
| How does the kitchen get the order? | A live ticket on a screen. Confirmed, preparing, ready, served — updating as it happens.A live screen, not a printer | Station-wise KOT to a printer, or a KDS they sell as an add-on. | Rista POS includes KOT as part of restaurant management. | A native Kitchen Display System in the kitchen suite. | A kitchen display that shows orders in real time. |
| What does the waiter use? | Waiter, cashier, host and captain share one phone app. Each sees their job. Guest calls land there live.A waiter panel, not a group chat | Staff use a Captain app and a KDS around the billing POS. | A waiter application, listed among other features. | Tablet ordering and server management on the POS. | A mobile cloud POS for the floor. |
| Does the guest need an app? | Nothing to install. It opens in the browser your guest already has.No download, ever | Guests scan in the browser. Staff still need Captain and KDS apps. | Camera QR, no extra guest app. They also sell a waiter application. | RestroScan in the browser, plus a branded guest app if you want one. | They sell the restaurant its own mobile app. |
| How do you get more features? | One plan. Ordering, kitchen, payments, stock, guests and reports are all already in it.One system, not a shopping list | An App Marketplace — you add and pay for apps as you need them. | A suite: digital storefront, QR, Rista POS, payments, capital. | A platform of named products, plus 500+ third-party integrations. | A suite — website, app, POS, KDS, CRM, loyalty, aggregator merge. |
| What does the AI do? | SpiceBot helps your guest choose, tells the kitchen what's coming, and briefs you before service.AI in the middle, not on the side | The billing product is not built around an AI layer. | Not described as an AI product. QR, POS, payments and a waiter app. | ML order-forecasting in the kitchen suite. Not a guest assistant on the menu. | Chatbots collect feedback. Cooking-time prediction on the KDS. Not a menu assistant. |
| What hardware do you buy? | A browser. Phones your staff already carry, and a screen in the kitchen.Start with what you own | Billing terminals and counters, with 200+ hardware integrations. | Built to sit with leading POS hardware, plus QR on the table. | Cloud POS, tablets, kiosks, and 500+ partner integrations. | A mobile cloud POS. Hardware is not the story they lead with. |
| What happens at outlet number two? | You step onto the franchise rungs — one menu, one guest list, one set of numbers, up to unlimited outlets.One ladder, all the way up | Multi-outlet is handled inside the POS product. | Restaurants, cafes and QSR chains from one dashboard. | Built for large chains and franchise networks — not as an SMB tool. | Multi-brand, multi-outlet — especially cloud kitchens. |
| What does it cost to find out? | Free on five tables. Live in a day. No card, no demo call first.Try it tonight | Pricing is quoted per restaurant, on request. | A demo first. Onboarding in about three days. A per-transaction service fee. | Sold as an enterprise platform. You start with a conversation. | A demo to start. No free dine-in floor on the public site. |

Where the others still winThree things worth knowing before you switch:
- Petpooja bills offline. If your internet drops mid-service, that matters — ask us how we handle it for your setup.
- Petpooja lists 200+ hardware integrations and Restroworks lists 500+ partners. If you have a cupboard of existing kit, some of it may not be plug-and-play with us.
- LimeTray and Petpooja have long-established aggregator links. If most of your revenue is Swiggy and Zomato, talk to us before you move.
