"Easy to input menus. The support team is always available. Ordering online seems easy for our guests."
The problem
Complex foodservice operations outgrew email and spreadsheets
Catering, school meals, group orders, and high-volume venues all break when the rules live in inboxes, spreadsheets, and disconnected ordering tools. App8 brings ordering, rules, production, payments, billing, and reporting into one controlled workflow.
The platform
From demand to fulfillment
Every order runs one connected path. Capture, rules, production, fulfillment, payment, and reporting move from intake to invoice, without the gaps a stack of disconnected tools leaves behind.
Powerful out of the box, tuned to your operation
Our enterprise enablement team tailors that path to your sites, building the connectors and rules your environment needs, so you go live on a workflow that already fits. No connector for a system yet? The team builds one.
We work backwards from how your sites run and connect into the systems you already use, like JDE, FreedomPay, and GiveX.
See our approachMulti-location control
One operating layer across every site
One place to run ordering across every location, region, and program, with the controls operations needs to hold standards as you scale.
- Set ordering rules, cutoffs, and approvals once, then enforce them across every site.
- Manage menus, pricing, and availability everywhere from one place, in real time.
- Pause a single location or the whole portfolio, and report across all of it.
- Run bulk actions and multi-site permissions without the spreadsheets.
Product family
The Rally product family
Rally is App8's own line of foodservice ordering products. Each one runs a specific operation on the same enterprise platform, rollout, and multi-location control, so it scales across your sites from day one.
Schools
K-12 ordering where parents and students self-order. You run the menus, cutoffs, and the subsidy model you set, then submit and reconcile in one pass.

Eats
High-volume venue and on-site ordering. Mobile, QR self-serve, and staff ordering on one platform from a centralized menu, at venue scale.
