Craftable review

Craftable takes seventh place as a strong purchasing and AP option for hospitality groups that mix restaurants with bars or hotel outlets. The platform covers inventory and recipe management, linking physical counts to recipes and theoretical usage, along with intelligent ordering and vendor management. Its AP automation matches invoices to purchase orders three ways, flags discrepancies, routes approvals and flags any price that moves past your threshold, which helps a finance team catch errors rather than key in data. A daily insights dashboard pulls food cost, labor and purchasing into one view. For IT teams, Craftable lists SOC 2 compliance, SSO and more than 1,000 POS, EDI and API integrations. Named customers include Kimpton Hotels and Restaurants, Hakkasan Group and bartaco. The weak points are transparency and scope: there are no published prices, and scheduling and payroll sit outside the product.
