Capabilities

What Aharo should handle for Manual Kitchen Mode

The integration layer should stay behind the restaurant approval step so staff can catch unclear calls before anything reaches the kitchen or POS.

Use Aharo as a lightweight pickup order board.

Run Kitchen Mode on an iPad or Android tablet near the kitchen.

Print pickup tickets for bags and kitchen stations.

Use approval/rejection before customers receive confirmation.

Setup path

How the restaurant would connect this workflow

This is the practical onboarding sequence Aharo should use before enabling live order handoff.

Step 1

Enter restaurant profile and menu items.

Step 2

Configure pickup and reservation rules.

Step 3

Open Kitchen Mode during service.

Step 4

Print tickets and approve or reject each order.

Fallback

No restaurant should be blocked by POS access

If the POS is unavailable, partner-gated, or not ready, Aharo can still run the call-order workflow with approval, tablet alerts, and print-ready pickup tickets.

This fallback is important for Indian restaurant operators because many stores either use unsupported POS systems or cannot wait for certification before testing voice order intake. Aharo should let them start with manual Kitchen Mode, then move to POS push when the integration is ready.
