Private beta on Bali
Know your food cost today. Not at month end.
The invoice arrives as a photo — from the chat, from the cabinet, however it suits your team. Nota reads every line, matches it to your catalog and puts a price on it. What is unclear, our operator closes — not you.

In private beta with restaurants on Bali/Eggstra Cafe, Canggu
Nothing to install
The photo goes wherever your team finds easiest — the chat it already talks in, or the cabinet. No app, no training, no new passwords.
The number lands now, not at period end
The invoice comes back read and priced, where it was sent from. You stop waiting for the period to close to find out what a plate costs.
Handwritten forms included
Supplier forms, thermal receipts, PDFs, Indonesian shorthand. Every line lands on a position in your catalog, not in free text.
Exceptions go to our operator
An unreadable line or an unknown supplier is resolved by a person on our side. You never answer a bot’s questions.
Not one line was typed by hand.
A supplier’s own form, filled in by hand and photographed between deliveries. Thirteen lines, thirteen prices, one total: read, every line matched to your catalog, and checked that the sum agrees with what the supplier wrote.
Reading it was the easy part.
A processed invoice saves an hour of typing. What matters starts after it: what you buy, at what price, and what changed this week.
A price went up — you hear it the same day
Every price is checked against thirty days of history. The list is sorted by money per month: 10% on salmon costs you more than 29% on chili.
The catalog, at the prices you actually pay
Your POS positions matched against every invoice that came in: last price, monthly average, which supplier, when it last arrived.
Plate cost moves when the invoice does
Upload the menu or an .xlsx — every dish is costed at your own purchase prices. A new invoice arrives, and the number is recalculated without you.
Stock counts by voice, text or a photo of the sheet
Whoever counts dictates the shelf, types it, or photographs the sheet. Back comes what the stock is worth at your latest purchase prices, and where it disagrees with the books.
How a week with Nota goes
Your team sends a photo
Between deliveries, from the chat or the cabinet. Handwritten, creased, on whatever form the supplier uses.
We read, match and file it
Nota does the reading. Anything it is unsure about lands in our operator’s queue, not on your desk.
You watch the numbers
Spend by supplier, price changes, plate cost, and a short weekly summary in your language.
Into the systems you already run.
The same document twice: an incoming document in the POS your team works in, a draft bill in the accounting your bookkeeper uses.

API
Your own system
Anything with an API. Days, not months.
Your data stays yours.
The POS password is entered once and encrypted on our servers. It never reaches the browser and never sits in a chat.
Every restaurant’s photos, catalog and prices are isolated. Our operator opens the one line in question, not your books.
Nothing on this site is a client’s live data: every diagram is drawn, and the numbers on them come from one real invoice.
Private beta on Bali
We are in private beta on Bali.
We onboard a few restaurants a month. Leave yours and we will write to you.
Running at Eggstra Cafe, Canggu.
The invoice the diagrams above are drawn from came out of Eggstra’s kitchen. Every number on it is real.
Questions owners ask
Do I need a POS?
No. Recording your invoices is the product. Posting them into Syrve or iiko, and filing bills into Xero or Zoho Books, is optional and we set it up.
My staff writes and reads Bahasa Indonesia.
They keep doing that. Nota reads Indonesian invoices and abbreviations; you see the result in English or Russian.
Who sees my photos and prices?
Your restaurant only. Data is isolated per organisation. Our operator opens the line that needs resolving, and nothing else.
What does it cost?
We are in beta and agree terms in person. We bill once a month — no card, no subscription inside an app.
What if a photo is unreadable?
The chat asks your team for a retake in one line, or our operator resolves it from the original. Nothing stalls quietly.
How does the invoice reach you?
However suits the kitchen: a photo in the chat, or an upload in the cabinet. If your team works somewhere else entirely, tell us on the call — that is usually a small thing to add.
Send us one of yours.
Join the waitlist and we will read your first invoice together on the call.
