Tebi's inventory feature lets you track stock levels for the products that matter most to your business, so you always know what's available, can stop selling items when they run out, and start building a clearer picture of your costs.
What can I do with inventory?
Inventory works well in a few distinct situations. You don't need to use it for everything.
You're running daily specials or prepped items. A chef's special, a batch of pastries, a limited portion of fresh fish — you've prepped a set number and want Tebi to stop selling the moment you run out. Set a stock count at the start of the day and let it count down automatically.
You have a drinks list you want to stay on top of. Whether you're running a short wine list or a full bar, inventory lets you track bottles and cans in real time. Particularly useful if you're moving through stock quickly and want to catch gaps before service.
You want a better read on your costs without tracking everything. Some operators don't need full ingredient-level control — they just want to know what's moving, what it costs them, and where the waste is going. Inventory gives you that visibility without requiring a full-time admin setup.
How it works
Track stock levels for individual products in real time.
Deduct stock automatically when items are added to a sale, and restore it if they're removed.
Stop selling automatically when a product reaches zero, so you never oversell.
Set a purchase price per product to calculate your margin.
Update stock counts to account for new deliveries, waste, or a manual stocktake.
View an inventory overview of all tracked products and their current stock levels.
Run a stock report to see inventory and costs for a selected time period.
Current limitations
Inventory in Tebi is actively being developed. Here's what to keep in mind today:
Whole units only: stock is tracked per full product. Partial units (e.g. a glass deducted from a bottle) aren't supported yet.
Primarily app-based: inventory management is mainly handled through the Tebi app. Back Office support is limited to bulk uploading stock counts.
What's coming
We're investing heavily in inventory and cost management. On the roadmap:
Partial units — track products sold by the glass, slice, or portion
Recipe management — tie ingredients to products so stock is deducted at the ingredient level when a dish is sold
Cost and waste insights — understand your cost of goods, track waste, and see how it affects your margins
