Craftable review
A broad restaurant back-office platform with strong costing and integration coverage.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Craftable is a cloud-based back-office platform for restaurants, hotels, bars, and multi-location hospitality operators. It brings purchasing, inventory management, recipe costing, accounts payable automation, financial reporting, and system integrations into one product. Inventory teams can track stock across departments and locations, calculate recipe and plate costs using live ingredient pricing, monitor waste and over-ordering, and transfer items between stores or departments. Web, iOS, and Android access supports inventory audits and barcode scanning.
The strongest fit is for operators that need detailed cost control alongside day-to-day purchasing. Craftable compares theoretical and actual COGS, supports purchase ordering and vendor management, and provides barcode-based inventory counting. AI-assisted recipe and purchase-order drafting adds workflow support around two specific tasks. Its named integrations include Toast, Square, Micros, Aloha NCR, SpotOn, Revel, Clover, Lightspeed, TouchBistro, QuickBooks, Sage, Acumatica, and Microsoft Dynamics GP, covering POS, accounting, ERP, and supplier workflows.
Pricing is handled through a contact-sales process and a demo, so the product suits teams prepared to evaluate a broader back-office system with a vendor. Craftable is a strong candidate for multi-location hospitality operators and finance or operations teams that value live costing, COGS analysis, purchasing controls, waste tracking, and transfers. Smaller operators seeking a narrowly focused inventory counter may find its wider purchasing, financial, integration, and automation scope more than they need. Craftable's value is clearest when several operational areas and connected systems need to work together.
