The hardest part of a tiffin business isn't cooking — it's managing the logistics. How many meals to prep? What's the delivery schedule? Who ordered what? If you're tracking this in a notebook or WhatsApp group, it's time to upgrade.
Your Daily Dashboard
When you open the Nomio chef app each morning, your dashboard shows everything you need:
- Today's Orders: How many meals, broken down by lunch and dinner.
- Prep List: Exactly which dishes to prepare and in what quantities.
- Delivery Timeline: When each order needs to be ready for pickup.
- Revenue: Today's earnings at a glance.
No spreadsheets. No mental maths. It's all calculated from your subscription plans automatically.
How Subscription Orders Work Behind the Scenes
When a customer subscribes to your plan, Nomio generates their daily orders automatically. Every morning, the system:
- Checks which subscriptions are active and which delivery days match today.
- Creates individual orders for each subscriber.
- Sends you a consolidated notification with your full prep list.
You don't need to confirm each order manually. They arrive pre-confirmed and pre-paid — you just cook and mark "ready".
Handling Skips and Pauses
Customers can skip individual days or pause their subscription. When they do:
- That day's order is automatically removed from your prep list.
- You're notified so you can adjust quantities.
- No payment is collected for skipped days.
This means your prep list is always accurate — you cook exactly what's needed, nothing more.
Status Updates in One Tap
As you work through your orders:
- Tap "Preparing" when you start cooking.
- Tap "Ready" when the meal is packed and waiting for pickup.
- A delivery partner is automatically assigned and arrives for collection.
Customers get real-time notifications at each stage, which reduces "where's my food?" messages.
Weekly Insights
At the end of each week, check your Insights tab for:
- Total meals delivered and revenue earned.
- Customer ratings and review trends.
- Which meals are most popular (so you can feature them more).
- Subscriber growth — new vs. churned.
The Result: Cook More, Manage Less
The whole point of Nomio's chef tools is to let you spend your time where it matters — in the kitchen. The app handles scheduling, payments, delivery coordination, and customer communication. You handle the food.
