TruckTally

Austin, TX — August 20, 2025 — TruckTally today announced the general availability of its lightweight inventory and order hub built specifically for food trucks and small fleets. Designed for owner-operators and lean teams, TruckTally forecasts demand by route and shift, turns forecasts into clear prep lists, and runs an offline-first order screen with live item counts. Early users report cutting stockouts by up to 60%, reducing waste by 25%, saving roughly 30 minutes per day in prep and reconciliation, and serving 12% more orders during peak windows. Food truck crews operate on thin margins and unpredictable conditions, from spotty LTE to pop-up venues with no power. TruckTally was built from the ground up for these realities. The platform models demand by route, daypart, and service duration, translating expected sales into batchable prep targets that commissaries can execute and trucks can trust. During service, a battery-friendly order screen runs offline, keeps live counts synchronized on-device, and supports fast 86s and substitutions to keep lines moving and guests satisfied even when connectivity drops. “Food truck operators rarely get a second shot at a peak hour; every stockout is a lost customer and every over-prep turns into waste,” said Avery Delgado, Founder and CEO of TruckTally. “We built TruckTally to be ruthlessly simple, unbelievably fast, and resilient offline. If your team can count, tap, and serve, you can run your truck with confidence—and finally see where minutes, margins, and meals are gained.” TruckTally’s feature set reflects countless nights on lots and commissaries alongside operators: - Route and shift forecasts that factor event length, venue profile, and past performance, giving Route-First Owner-Operators a clear picture of what will sell and when. - A prep-list generator that converts forecasts into batchable tasks for Commissary Prep Planners, including par levels and ingredient staging to launch with the right quantities per truck. - An offline-first order screen for Line Lead Counter Captains that displays live counts, supports quick 86s and clean substitutions, and never stalls a line when LTE is spotty. - Real-time visibility for Restock Runners, who can monitor live item counts across trucks and make targeted mid-shift drops to avoid costly stockouts. - Fleet views for small operators managing multiple trucks, enabling comparisons across routes and dayparts and standardizing menus where it matters. “Before TruckTally, I either over-prepped and ate the cost or under-prepped and disappointed guests,” said Casey, an early owner-operator in the Southwest. “With route-level forecasts and a prep list I can hand straight to my commissary team, we’ve halved stockouts, cut waste noticeably, and I finally close out with fewer surprises.” For Marketplace Matcher Morgan types who choose venues by projected profit, TruckTally highlights route and daypart expectations so bookings align to sales opportunities and staffing levels. For Onboarding-Oriented Olivia, the order screen doubles as a training tool, nudging consistent 86 and substitution habits and establishing a rhythm new crews can follow on day one. Offline-First Owen can run a full shift without connectivity, then sync data back in town—no special hardware required. TruckTally’s live counts maintain a truthful state of the line: as items are sold, counters adjust and alert when thresholds are near. If an item is about to 86, the system prompts a substitution path chosen by the operator, preserving service speed. At close, teams review waste and refunds in one place, making the nightly post-mortem faster and more actionable. The platform’s simple data exports support bookkeeping and menu decisions without forcing a heavy analytics stack. The company emphasizes speed to value. New Pop-Up Trialers can set up in under an hour with a lightweight menu entry flow, launch with sensible defaults, and get clear prep guidance without deep configuration. Seasonal Re-Activators can pull in last season’s data, refresh forecasts quickly, and ramp back to accurate prep ahead of festivals or peak months. “Teams tell us TruckTally gives them back a half hour every day and the confidence to push more orders at peak,” Delgado added. “That time compounds into happier guests, shorter lines, and better margins at the end of the week.” Availability and getting started: TruckTally is available today. Operators can begin with a guided setup that imports menus, establishes route and shift structures, and generates the first prep list in minutes. The platform runs on common tablets and phones and is optimized for low-power, offline-first reliability. About TruckTally: TruckTally is the lightweight inventory and order hub built for food trucks. By forecasting demand by route and shift, turning insights into practical prep lists, and powering a resilient offline order screen with live counts, TruckTally helps crews cut stockouts, reduce waste, and serve more orders with less stress.

Austin, TX — August 20, 2025 — TruckTally today introduced Fleet Balancer and the Commissary Prep Suite, two major additions that expand its lightweight inventory and order hub from single-truck operations to small fleets running multiple concepts. The new capabilities give Fleet Coordinators and commissary teams an end-to-end view of route and shift forecasts, standardized menus across locations, and live counts from every truck—so scarce inventory ends up on the right unit before the rush and crews stay stocked throughout service. Food trucks live and die by flow and foresight. Fleet Balancer brings both into one place. It aggregates route- and daypart-level forecasts for each truck, highlights imbalances across units, and suggests practical inventory redistributions before the doors open. During service, live counts stream back from TruckTally’s offline-first order screen, giving Restock Runners an at-a-glance map of which trucks are trending hot on specific items and which can spare. The result: fewer emergency phone calls, fewer mid-shift scrambles, and fewer guests turned away for an 86’d favorite. “Standardizing menus and balancing inventory across multiple trucks has been a daily puzzle for small fleets,” said Nia Patel, Head of Product at TruckTally. “Fleet Balancer surfaces the right move at the right moment—before the rush, during the rush, and at close. Paired with our Commissary Prep Suite, managers can set pars, batch prep efficiently, and launch each truck with confidence.” The Commissary Prep Suite turns forecasts into action for shared kitchens and multi-brand commissaries. It converts demand into batchable prep lists by ingredient, consolidates overlapping recipes across concepts, and creates staging guides so trucks leave with the right quantities for their exact routes. Multi-Brand Max can finally balance shared ingredients like tortillas or sauces without guesswork, while maintaining each concept’s menu integrity. Key capabilities now available to fleets and commissaries include: - Route- and shift-level forecasting rolled up across trucks, so managers can compare expected sales and staff accordingly. - A shared-ingredient matrix that reconciles overlapping recipes across brands, generating a single, efficient prep plan for commissary teams. - Pre-launch balancing suggestions that identify where small inventory swaps will have big impact and provide a simple checklist for runners. - Live counts across the fleet during service, enabling targeted mid-shift restocks without interrupting the line. - Role-based views for Fleet Coordinators, Commissary Prep Planners, Line Lead Counter Captains, and Restock Runners, each optimized for fast decisions. - Standardized menu controls that allow central updates with local flexibility and clear substitution policies to keep service on-script even when items run tight. “On a three-truck night we used to over-prep one unit and under-prep another,” said Max, a commissary chief at a multi-brand operator in the Midwest. “TruckTally showed us the imbalance before we rolled. We moved a small set of ingredients, and the difference was night and day—fewer 86s, smoother pacing, and a cleaner closeout.” Because TruckTally is offline-first, every truck benefits from the same speed and reliability regardless of venue connectivity. The order screen updates live counts on-device, and data synchronizes back when a connection is available—no new hardware, no special networks. For operators who run remote routes or festivals, that resilience means the fleet view remains trustworthy even when individual trucks operate in dead zones. Beyond service, managers can review nightly performance with waste, refunds, and sell-through summaries by truck and by route. Fleet Balancer highlights where prep and balancing decisions paid off and where adjustments will improve the next shift. For Marketplace Matcher Morgan, that data guides better bookings; for Promo-Paced Parker, it informs marketing pushes that move surplus without overpromising. “Small fleets deserve enterprise-grade visibility without enterprise complexity,” Patel added. “We started with the realities of food trucks—tight teams, tight spaces, variable service—and built tools that fit. Our goal is to give managers the confidence that each truck is stocked to its actual demand and the agility to adapt mid-service.” Availability: Fleet Balancer and the Commissary Prep Suite are available today for TruckTally customers. Existing single-truck operators can add a second unit in minutes and unlock fleet views automatically. For multi-brand kitchens, TruckTally supports shared ingredient catalogs and standardized menu templates out of the box. About TruckTally: TruckTally is the lightweight inventory and order hub built for food trucks. By forecasting demand by route and shift, turning insights into commissary-ready prep lists, and powering an offline-first order screen with live counts, TruckTally helps crews cut stockouts, reduce waste, and serve more orders with less stress. The new Fleet Balancer and Commissary Prep Suite extend those benefits across multi-truck operations and shared kitchens.

Austin, TX — August 20, 2025 — TruckTally today launched Fast Start, a program tailored for Pop-Up Trialers and Seasonal Re-Activators who need to stand up accurate prep and a reliable order flow—fast. Fast Start combines a 60-minute setup, a guided menu and route wizard, smart re-activation of last-season data, and day-one training kits so crews can launch with confidence, even when the first event is days away and connectivity is uncertain. Food pop-ups and seasonal trucks operate under intense time pressure: limited booking windows, borrowed staff, and venue variables that can derail even the best plans. Fast Start compresses the onboarding curve into a single working session. Operators enter a lightweight menu, define routes and shifts by venue and daypart, and immediately see forecasts that translate into a practical prep list. When service begins, TruckTally’s offline-first order screen tracks live counts, supports quick 86s and substitutions, and keeps lines moving even if LTE is spotty or non-existent. “New operators and seasonal teams deserve tools that just work on day one,” said Jules Romero, COO of TruckTally. “Fast Start delivers a complete, confidence-building setup in under an hour. By re-using what made last season successful and grounding prep in realistic route and shift forecasts, crews can stop guessing and start serving.” Fast Start addresses three critical operator needs: - Speed: A guided setup that gets menu items in, routes and shifts defined, and the first prep list generated within an hour. Sensible defaults reduce decision fatigue while preserving control where it matters. - Accuracy: Demand forecasting by route and daypart produces clear pars. Commissary Prep Planners get batchable prep lists and ingredient staging, so trucks leave with the right quantities for the exact service length and expected foot traffic. - Resilience: An offline-first order screen ensures every tap counts regardless of connectivity, with live item counts that prevent over-selling and push timely 86s and substitutions. For Seasonal Re-Activators, smart re-activation pulls in last season’s data, refreshing forecasts with the latest route and venue inputs. That jump-starts accuracy without heavy configuration and helps operators re-align pars quickly. For Onboarding-Oriented Olivia, the included training kit turns chaos into checklists: a simple service flow, 86 and substitution habits, and a pacing rhythm tied to live counts so new hires find success on day one and veterans stay consistent. “Last summer we walked into our first festival under-stocked and spent the night apologizing,” said Parker, a marketing-minded operator who runs a seasonal concept in the Southeast. “With TruckTally’s Fast Start, we launched this season with route-level forecasts and a prep list my team could execute. We cut waste, kept fan favorites in stock, and even used live counts to time promos that moved surplus without overpromising.” Fast Start also helps Marketplace Matcher Morgan types choose bookings wisely. Comparative route and daypart forecasts highlight profitable windows. Operators can trim menus to service length and venue constraints, balance high-margin items against crowd favorites, and set pars that minimize post-event waste. During service, Promo-Paced Parker can align social posts to inventory reality—boosting items that need to move and avoiding hype for dishes already on the brink of 86. Behind the scenes, TruckTally’s data model stays simple and portable. Operators can export nightly summaries for bookkeeping, waste analysis, and menu decisions. For Restock Runners supporting pop-up pods or festival clusters, live counts per truck focus mid-shift drops on what will save the most orders. “Fast Start is the shortest path from idea to well-run service,” Romero added. “It’s not a stripped-down demo. It’s the full TruckTally workflow—route-level forecasts, commissary-ready prep, and an order screen that never stalls—delivered with guided confidence so teams can hit go.” Availability: Fast Start is available today to all TruckTally customers and trial users. New operators can begin with a guided session, import or enter a lightweight menu, and produce their first prep list in minutes. Seasonal teams can reactivate prior data, refresh forecasts, and be service-ready ahead of peak months. About TruckTally: TruckTally is the lightweight inventory and order hub built for food trucks. It forecasts demand by route and shift, converts those insights into prep lists, and powers an offline-first order screen with live counts. Crews cut stockouts by as much as 60%, reduce waste by 25%, save roughly 30 minutes each day, and serve 12% more orders during peak windows.
