MatruOS for a brewery and brewpub

Set up the way a brewery and brewpub runs: fresh beer sold on the premises by the glass, pitcher or tower; food and other drinks; growlers or kegs where allowed; production breweries sell cans, bottles and kegs through corporations and distributors. Routines, workflows, registers, licences and an AI team that knows the work are ready when you sign up.

What this solves

What a brewery and brewpub deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it

01Today

Beer goes stale in tanks or a tap runs dry because brewing is not tied to sales. Daily excise registers of tanks and sales by hand.

02In MatruOS

MatruOS sets up 8 routines, 2 workflows, 3 registers and 14 licences for a brewery and brewpub, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.

03What changes

The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.
