PrepBoard

Restaurant recipe and standards management

Every recipe. Every shift. Done right.

Give your team one reliable place for recipes, procedures, photos, and kitchen standards—so every shift can execute the right way.

Simple monthly pricing. Cancel anytime.

A recipe open in PrepBoard on a phone, showing its photo, prep and cook times, yield, tags, and the start of the ingredient list.

Your standards shouldn’t live in binders, texts, and one employee’s memory.

When recipes are difficult to find, outdated, or explained differently by every manager, training slows down and execution drifts. PrepBoard gives the team one dependable source of truth.

  • Outdated recipes

    Old instructions stay in circulation long after the recipe actually changed.

  • Repeated questions

    Managers lose time answering the same recipe questions every single shift.

  • Inconsistent execution

    Ingredients, portions, and procedures shift from one employee to the next.

  • Scattered knowledge

    Standards live across binders, files, group chats, and one person’s memory.

Built for the kitchen—not the corporate filing cabinet.

PrepBoard makes the approved recipe easy to find, understand, and maintain from the phone already in your team’s pocket.

The PrepBoard recipe list on a phone, with a search field above photographed recipe cards showing prep time, cook time, yield, and tags.

Find the answer quickly

Give staff fast access to the recipe they need without digging through binders or old files.

A recipe’s ingredient list, each line showing the measured quantity ahead of the ingredient name.

Every quantity, in one place

Measurements sit alongside each ingredient, so prep matches the approved standard instead of someone’s estimate.

The directions for a recipe, written as numbered steps in order.

Steps in the order they happen

Numbered directions keep execution consistent whoever is on the station that day.

Reference photos attached to a recipe, showing the finished dish so staff can check their own work against it.

Show what “right” looks like

Reference photos let a cook check their own plate against the standard before it reaches the guest.

A manager editing a recipe, adding tags, equipment, allergens, and photos, with Cancel and Save actions that read-only staff never see.

Protect manager control

Managers maintain the standard while staff retain simple read access.

Better information creates better shifts.

  • Train with confidence

    Give new employees clear recipes, procedures, and reference photos from their first shift.

  • Protect consistency

    Keep the current approved version available to everyone who needs it.

  • Reduce preventable mistakes

    Make ingredients, portions, and procedures easy to verify before errors reach the guest.

  • Maintain control

    Let managers update standards without giving every employee editing access.

Why PrepBoard exists

Built inside restaurant operations—not a software boardroom.

I’m Carter, a restaurant operator and chef. I built PrepBoard after seeing the same problem across real kitchens: the correct recipe is often harder to find than it should be, training depends too heavily on whoever is working, and standards drift when information is scattered.

PrepBoard is designed to make the right way the easy way for managers and staff.

Questions, answered.

Does every employee need a paid account?
No. PrepBoard is priced by active location, not by employee. Staff access is included at every location you pay for.
Who can edit recipes?
Managers hold edit access and are the only ones who can create or change recipes. Staff are given read access, so they can see the approved standard without being able to alter it. The two are separate credentials you control from the web portal.
Can employees use PrepBoard on their phones?
Yes. PrepBoard is built as a phone-first app for iOS and Android, designed for finding a recipe quickly during prep and service. App store listings are still being finalised, so we send current download and access instructions to your account after you subscribe.
Can recipes be used across multiple locations?
Yes. A recipe can be shared across your whole organization or assigned to specific locations, so group-wide standards stay identical while a location keeps the items that are only its own.
What happens after I subscribe?
You create your organization and first location, generate the manager and staff access codes, build your recipe library, and give your team the app. You can add more locations at any time from the same portal.
Can I cancel?
Yes. Billing is monthly with no contract, and you can manage or cancel the subscription yourself from the billing page in your web account.
How is restaurant information protected?
PrepBoard uses controlled staff and manager access, database-level permissions, and restaurant- and location-specific authorization to limit access to your information. Payment details are processed securely by Stripe and never pass through PrepBoard's servers.
What happens without internet?
Recipes already saved to the device remain available to view when your connection drops. Creating or editing recipes requires an internet connection.
