Skip the queue. Pick up when it’s ready.

Order from every stall in the food court on your phone. You get a token number and a live ETA, so you can sit down and wait for lunch instead of standing for it.

Coming soon to iOS and Android. Works on the web today.

An order seen as a plate from above: token 27, with the rim filling as the kitchen works.

A food court has a dozen kitchens and a dozen queues. Plato puts every menu in one place, takes your order once, and tells you when to walk up. Your lunch break goes on lunch.

One lunch break, with Plato

Thirteen minutes from hungry to eating, and none of them in a line.

  1. Open every stall at once

    Every food court and stall nearby, with full menus, a veg filter and search. No walking the floor to read boards.

  2. One cart, then a token

    Mix stalls in one cart, add a coupon, pick dine-in or takeaway. Place the order and you get a token number.

  3. Watch the ETA, not the counter

    The ETA moves as the kitchen works. If your order runs late, your phone tells you, so you can stay seated.

  4. Walk up, show your token, eat

    Pay at the counter when you collect. Your token is the only thing the stall needs to see.

An ETA that learns the kitchen.

Every night Plato learns how long each dish really takes at each stall, from real orders. Every minute it re-plans every open order against what the kitchen is doing now. When yours slips, you hear about it before you start wondering.

Built for the people behind the counter

Each stall runs its own kitchen. Orders arrive on a live board with a sound alert, sold-out items disappear from the menu in a tap, and the numbers that matter are one screen away. From the web dashboard, or from stall mode in the same app.

How Plato works with stalls and food courts

A flat monthly fee, not a cut of every order

We are not planning a commission. Stalls would pay one simple monthly subscription, so a busy Friday costs the same as a quiet Monday.

One console for the whole food court

Operators manage food courts, stalls, staff roles, coupons and review moderation from a single admin console.

The same order with a full rim: token 27 is ready to pick up.

Token 27, your lunch is ready.

Pay at the counter when you pick up. iOS and Android apps are coming soon.
