What's included in Varastiq Pro?

Pro includes the core restaurant workflow below. Live integrations are an optional add-on. Confirm connection availability, add-on pricing and any optional AI features in your owner portal.

Your team counts in the Stiq app, invoices keep ingredient prices current, recipes roll up into a live plate cost, and big drops get flagged during the count. Sales come in from Toast (read-only) or from a supported sales report you upload, which turns recipes into a theoretical food cost. Labor costs come from recorded wages, so prime cost (food + beverage + labor) shows up weekly without a spreadsheet.

Golf club, country club or hotel F&B? Varastiq counts each outlet (clubhouse kitchen, halfway house, beverage cart, banquet, bar) in its own walk order. Ask us how your outlets map to locations before you buy. See golf and country clubs and hotel food and beverage.

What is Varastiq Guided Setup?

Varastiq Guided Setup is an optional, one-time $299 add-on for guided onboarding and setup. You don't need it to use Varastiq. Contact us if you want to arrange Guided Setup. A demo or contact request does not collect payment. It is excluded from the software money-back guarantee and is non-refundable once completed.

Setting up on your own is one list: your storage areas, in the order you actually walk them. Then you load your menu (or let Vara draft it from a PDF on See your menu), add an invoice, and run your first count.

How does the money-back guarantee work?

If Varastiq is not right for you, ask for a refund within 14 days on a monthly plan or 30 days on an annual plan, counted from your first software payment. The guarantee covers software only. Optional guided setup is excluded from the software guarantee and is non-refundable once completed.

See the current Terms of Service for subscription, billing and cancellation terms. Online self-serve signup is temporarily unavailable.
