Prepline

Your weekly prep sheet, counted for you.

Prepline reads the week's orders from your WooCommerce store and tells you how much of each protein to pull, split by how it's prepped and by meal size. The tally that takes an afternoon with a calculator takes about a minute.

Send us last week's orders and we'll send back your prep sheet. Check it against your own count before you pay anything.

The parts that make it take all afternoon

Totalling protein is easy. Splitting it the way the kitchen actually cooks it is what takes the time. Prepline handles all of this:

Prep type
Ground beef and steak are separate pulls. So are grilled and shredded chicken.
Meal sizes
Small, medium and large meals at your portion weights, plus à la carte by the pound.
Meal packs
5, 7 and 10 meal specials, split into the dishes that fill them.
Add-ons
Extra protein and add-a-protein options, counted at the weight you serve.
Swaps
Substitutions, counted by meal size.
Bulk orders
Contest prep and other by-the-pound orders, kept off the entrée lines.
Breakfast and snacks
Counted on their own, with their add-ons.
Containers
How many of each size to pull.
Anything odd
Allergy notes, customer notes and anything it had to guess, listed for you to check.

How it works

  1. Connect your store

    You make a read-only key in WooCommerce. Prepline can see orders and products. It can't change anything, and it doesn't read customer names or addresses.

  2. Set up your menu once

    On a call, we enter your sizes, meal packs, add-ons and bulk items. After that, it reads each week's dishes from your store.

  3. Print the sheet

    Pick the ordering week. The sheet is on screen in a few seconds, and as a PDF to print for the kitchen.

5–6 hrs

That's how long the owner of Hungry House, a meal prep kitchen, spent every week turning orders into a prep sheet by hand. Prepline was built in her kitchen, around the sheet she already used, and checked against her own counts.

Questions

Which stores does it work with?

WooCommerce today. If you sell through Shopify, Square or something else, tell us. We build the next connection for whoever asks first.

What about orders taken over the phone?

Enter them through your own store's checkout, with a pay-later or invoice option, and they're counted with everything else. You can also upload a CSV of extra orders.

Are the weights raw or cooked?

Cooked, because that's what goes in the container. You can also see a raw estimate for ordering, based on your own cooking yields.

Can Prepline change anything in my store?

No. The key it uses can only read. You can delete it in WooCommerce at any time and Prepline stops working right away.

Is there a contract?

No. Plans are monthly and you can cancel any time. The setup fee is paid once.

See your own week before you decide.
