Take food orders on WhatsApp.
No app. No website. No delays.

How it works

From "hello" to "order placed" — in one chat.

Your customer doesn't install anything. They open WhatsApp like always — and Kulabo handles the rest.

1

Customer says hi

A friendly greeting, today's bestsellers, and a clear path to order — all inside WhatsApp.

2

Kulabo takes the order

Suggests dishes, answers questions, captures dietary needs, builds the cart, confirms address — naturally.

3

M-Pesa pays the bill

An STK push lands on the customer's phone. They tap their PIN. You see the order ready to cook.

Everything you need

A whole restaurant, run from WhatsApp.

From the first hello to the last delivery — Kulabo covers every step, without you lifting a finger.

Conversational ordering

Customers chat like they would with a waiter — "2 pilau and a cold soda" — and Kulabo just gets it.

Order by voice note

Customer too busy to type? They tap the mic, speak the order, and Kulabo replies with a tidy summary in text.

Smart menu assistant

Suggests dishes, filters by vegan / halal / spicy, and answers "what's good today?" without missing a beat.

Visual menu cards

Photos, prices, and an "Add to cart" button — right inside the chat. Customers browse like a swipeable mini-store.

M-Pesa, built in

STK Push lands on the customer's phone. Payment lands in your account. Receipts and refunds — handled.

Easy addresses

What3Words codes, dropped pins, or "near Quickmart Westlands" — all work. Riders get clear directions.

Delivery or pickup

Set your zones and fees once. Kulabo quotes them on the fly and never takes an order outside your range.

Live order tracking

"Where's my food?" is answered automatically — with real status and ETAs straight from your kitchen.

Run it from your phone

Accept, reject, set an ETA, or pause for the day — just by texting your own WhatsApp number.

Kitchen dashboard

A live screen for your kitchen and counter — new orders pop up the second they're paid.

Daily & weekly insights

Sales totals, top items, busiest hours, and a weekly summary delivered to your WhatsApp every Monday.

Speaks English & Swahili

Customers write however they like. Kulabo replies in the same language, in the same tone.

Menu in minutes

Snap a photo of your printed menu — Kulabo reads it and builds the digital version for you.

Saved addresses & preferences

Regulars never repeat themselves — past orders, allergies, and delivery spots come back automatically on the next chat.

"The usual?" suggestions

Returning customers see their favourite order pre-built with one tap — plus smart pairings like "fancy a soda with that?"

Bring back lost carts

If a customer builds a cart and disappears, Kulabo sends a gentle "still hungry?" nudge with a one-tap Resume button.

Payment safety net

If an M-Pesa prompt is missed, Kulabo follows up. If an order is cancelled, refunds go back to the customer automatically.

Speaks like your brand

Polished templates with the warmth of a local waiter — never robotic, never spammy, always on-brand.

For restaurant owners

More orders. Less juggling.

You already use WhatsApp every day. Kulabo just makes it work harder — answering customers in seconds, capturing every order, and paying you straight to M-Pesa.

  • Never miss an order
    Late nights, lunch rush, public holidays — Kulabo is always there to greet and sell.
  • No commission on each order
    You keep the relationship with your customer and the margin on every plate.
  • One number, all customers
    No more juggling DMs, phone calls and notebooks. Every conversation lives in one tidy inbox.
  • Pause with one word
    Sold out for the day? Just text "CLOSED". Kulabo reopens automatically tomorrow morning.

FAQ

Quick answers

Do my customers need to download anything?

No. They just open WhatsApp like they always do, and message your number. That's it.

Can customers send a voice note instead of typing?

Yes. They tap WhatsApp's mic, speak their order, and Kulabo replies in clean text with the cart and total. Great for boda riders, busy parents, and anyone on the move.

How long does setup take?

Most restaurants are live within 48 hours. Send us your menu (a photo works), your M-Pesa Till or Paybill, and your operating hours.

Can I keep my existing WhatsApp number?

Yes — we move your business number onto WhatsApp's official Business platform so Kulabo can answer messages, while you keep full ownership.

What if Kulabo gets something wrong?

Kulabo asks for confirmation before checkout, and any unclear order is flagged for your team. You can also reply manually anytime from your inbox.

What does it cost?

A simple monthly subscription — no commission on orders. Talk to us for pilot pricing.
