Features
Five pillars, one data model.
Everything is connected: a sale draws down the inventory, the time clock feeds the event P&L, tips land in the right pool — automatic, traceable, correctable.
Real screens, real data.
No mockups — the system is running. POS in a night-shift design (dark, large touch targets, works offline), back office bright for the desk.
The five pillars in detail.
Five pillars plus the special cases other tills have never heard of.
01 Point of sale
- Fiscal POS (TSE) per KassenSichV (cloud TSE, hardware option)
- Offline-first: ringing up continues, sync catches up
- Product grid by category — fast ringing even with a big menu
- Park-a-tab for open tables, §14 invoice straight from the receipt
- E-receipt with TSE QR, receipt printing (ESC/POS), hospitality voucher
- Cash count with denominations & mandatory reason for differences
02 Scheduling
- Rota: week, day, month — with drag & drop
- Shift-swap board with clear server answers instead of chat chaos
- Availability & absences from the phone
- Events with P&L: did Saturday actually pay off?
- Utilisation heatmap by hour × weekday
03 Operations
- Inventory as a gap-free ledger — a sale draws down the recipe
- Goods-in with price-drift alert & best-source comparison
- In-house production with batches & best-before alerts
- Stocktake without a target cheat sheet, shrinkage rate per item
- Reorder suggestions from real consumption
- Supplier scorecard: price, on-time delivery & complaints
04 Team
- Onboarding without a mail server: an invite code is enough
- Time clock = PIN at the POS, hours per calendar month
- Mini-job meter: the earnings threshold always in view
- Digital tips: pools, fair distribution, acknowledgement
- IfSG (food-hygiene) briefings & deadlines watched automatically
- Trainings with an in-app test — audit-proof record
05 Compliance
- DSFinV-K export for the cash audit — 15 files, complete
- GoBD: everything financial append-only, correction instead of deletion
- HACCP checklists with threshold alerts, at the POS and in the office
- GDPR deadline hub with executed erasure and proof
- AML (GwG) check for galleries, GEMA deadlines for events
+ Special cases
- Gallery: consignment, margin scheme §25a, credit-note reversal
- Space rental with double-booking protection
- Deposit & reusable-cup logic for cultural venues
- NFC wristband wallet for clubs (pilot stage 3)
- Multiple locations & legal entities under one roof
Built for the moment the tax office knocks.
Compliance here is architecture, not a sticker: every cent is a journal entry, every correction a new entry, every export auditable. Named concretely — no blanket "legally safe" promise.
Sovereign — your data, your rules.
The big till vendors hang off US clouds and someone else’s AI. Qogusto runs on servers in Germany/EU — and the built-in AI computes on our own GPUs, not at OpenAI. In 2026 that is not a nice-to-have but operational safety.
DE/EU No US-cloud risk
Self-hosted in the EU, no handing off to hyperscalers, no CLOUD-Act grey zone. Your revenue, customer and staff data stay where they belong.
AI Sovereign AI instead of OpenAI
Reporting and text assistance run on our own AI operated in Germany — no data leaking to US providers. GDPR-solid by design, not by contract.
✓ Tamper-evident by design
Everything financial as an append-only ledger (nothing overwritten, only appended) and strict tenant isolation via row-level security — audit safety sits in the data model.
⇄ No lock-in
Your data is yours: DSFinV-K and CSV export anytime, open interfaces. No hostage contract that punishes leaving.
