Getting started

Signup se pehle bill tak — five steps.

Setting up EasyKOT is a checklist, not a project: sign up free, put the register on your laptop (or just an Android phone), let AI import your menu, type one code on the till, and ring your first sale. The dashboard walks you through each step and ticks them off with proof — "42 dishes ready", not just a tick.

The five steps

Exactly what the dashboard will ask of you.

STEP 1

Sign up — free for 3 months, no card

Create your account and store at app.easykot.com. No card, no payment, no sales call — signup also mints your own owner PIN, so you can bill alone from day one.

STEP 2

Download the register (Windows or Mac)

Install the till app on the laptop at your counter — .exe on Windows, .dmg on Mac. No laptop? Skip this step: the Captain app on an Android phone can be the register, printing to a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi thermal printer.

STEP 3

Add your menu

Drop your menu as a PDF, photos, or CSV/Excel — AI reads the dishes, portions and prices into a review grid, and nothing saves until you approve it. In a hurry, start from the 245-dish Indian master library or a sample menu.

EasyKOT owner dashboard, Menu & stock: a categories panel with Starters 32, Soup 15, Tandoor 29, Chinese 78 and more, and an item list showing each dish's Half and Full prices with a Live switch and an Edit button

Where the menu lands once it is read — categories on the left, dishes and prices on the right, each with its own Live switch.

STEP 4

Connect your register with one code

The dashboard shows a one-time code; type it on the till and the register links itself to your store. From that moment it works offline — billing never waits for the internet again.

EasyKOT owner dashboard, New device card: three kinds to choose from — Register (Desktop till), Captain (Waiter phone) and Kitchen display (KDS screen) — a Name field reading Counter phone, and a Create and get setup code button

Dashboard → Devices → Add device. Pick the kind carefully — it is fixed the moment the device is created, and only a Register carries a GST invoice series.

STEP 5

Ring your first sale

Punch a dish, take payment, print the bill. Printer setup happens right on the register: it auto-discovers network, USB, serial and Bluetooth ESC/POS printers, and there's a test print in Settings.

Step-by-step for the two steps people get stuck on: connecting a thermal printer (with screenshots of every field) and running the whole day on one Android phone.

Then, when you're ready

Two optional steps. Zero pressure.

Connect captain phones. Waiters take orders at the table on their own phones — two quick codes and they land straight on the till and kitchen. Details on the captain app page, or follow the step-by-step phone setup.
Add your staff. Each person gets their own PIN, so the day-end knows who rang what. You already have yours — signup created it.
Put a screen in the kitchen. An old monitor or tablet becomes the kitchen display — tickets, timers, bump.

EasyKOT owner dashboard: net sales, orders, average order, food cost and net profit against targets — what you see once the store is live

What works offline: billing, KOT printing, settling — the whole counter. What needs internet: signup, sync and the owner dashboard. The offline simulator shows the cut happening live.

Setup questions

Straight answers.

How long does setup actually take?

Most owners print their first bill within the hour. The menu is the longest step, and AI import does the typing — you check a grid instead of entering 300 dishes.

Do I need my card to start?

No. The trial is 3 months, full product, no card and no AutoPay. Payment happens only if you choose to continue after the trial — and we email you a week before it ends.

What internet does setup need?

Signup, the download and the connect code need internet once. After the register is connected, billing, KOT printing and settling run fully offline; the dashboard syncs whenever the connection is there.

I already run PetPooja or another POS — can I try EasyKOT in parallel?

Yes, and that's the sensible way: the trial is 3 months precisely so you can run both side by side and switch at your renewal, not mid-service.

When do waiters and staff come in?

Whenever you're ready — both are optional steps. Captain phones connect with two quick codes (a setup code from Devices, then a pairing code from the till), and each staff member gets their own PIN so takings are attributable.

Who helps if I get stuck?

The dashboard's setup checklist walks you through each step with its own 'do this now' door, and WhatsApp support comes from the people who built it.
