Online booking

The kitchen picks its own afternoon

Your page shows only the hours you work, so a chef takes the Tuesday between services without a phone call and the total is worked out as they choose.

Smart scheduling

A fortnight ahead, already booked

Standing visits generate themselves before anyone rings, and the one-off two streets away is ranked into the gap that adds the least driving.

Butcher blade set

Every blade on the round

The work you actually carry out

Restaurant and cafe kitchens

Thirty or forty blades between lunch and dinner while the section preps. Set it as a standing visit and the fortnight books itself.

Butchers and smallgoods

Boning and breaking knives plus the bandsaw blade, each its own line at its own rate, so the count carried out matches the count charged.

Deli and sandwich bar slicers

Slicer blades that have to come off the machine, booked for the hour before open and priced as their own job rather than as a knife.

Barbers and hairdressers

Scissors and clipper blades with their own geometry and their own price, from a chair that cannot trade for a day without them.

Dog groomers

Clipper blades and thinning shears in batches, dropped at the bench or swapped on a standing visit every few weeks.

Pub and club bistros

One kitchen, two services and a chef who is never free at the same hour twice. Availability comes off the hours you work, not off a promise.

Market stalls and pop-ups

A Saturday at the stall is a day nothing else can book into, and the sets people leave with you come back as their own jobs.

Household sets and drop-offs

A full drawer is one job at one price on your page. If they come to you, the service books against your bench instead of a drive.

Shears, secateurs and mower blades

Hedge shears, secateurs and a set of cylinder blades, quoted as lines with a count, so the total is arithmetic rather than a guess.

The round is the whole business.

A kitchen that sees you every fortnight is worth twenty households. Set the arrangement once and the visits are there before anyone rings.

  • Set once, then it turns up

    Same day, same fortnight, ending never or after a set number of visits. Standing arrangements are on the Free plan and generate ahead of you.

  • Three arrangements, one quote

    On-site bench visit, swap set or drop-off at your workshop, side by side with their own prices and the one you would run marked recommended. Options come with Pro.

  • Move one visit, not the pattern

    Reschedule the Tuesday a chef cannot make and the rest of the arrangement re-anchors to it. Nothing has to be rebuilt by hand.

A sharpening quote itemised by blade type, each line carrying a count and a rate.

Pro

Priced per blade, paid per visit.

A visit only pays if the count is right, so the count is the invoice: every blade type its own line, its own rate and its own quantity.

  • Cash and transfer cost nothing

    Write down what the chef handed over against the visit on the Free plan. Cards are the only part of the money that needs Pro.

  • A link per visit, not a chase

    Send a payment request against the visit and the venue settles it with no account and no app. The money lands in your own account.

  • One list of who is behind

    The Payments list totals what has come in and what is still out, so the venue that has not settled three visits is visible.

A list of payments, each with the customer, reference, date, method and amount, with totals received and still outstanding.

Someone asks whether you take bandsaw blades or horse clippers. It lands as a request in the thread to accept or decline, not as a voicemail.

The one-off goes where it costs least.

A new job is scored against your open gaps by the driving each one adds, and the cheapest gap is put at the top for you to confirm.

The venue remembers its own count.

The same kitchen every fortnight, priced off what it ran last time rather than off a fresh conversation with whoever answered.

Between lunch and dinner is the door.

A kitchen cannot give you its knives during service and will not open early for you. Availability comes off the hours you actually work.

A map with three service areas shaded over a street grid, and a list of territories beneath, each a group of suburbs with its crew.
  • Surry Hills8 suburbs · 2 crew
  • Paddington7 suburbs · 2 crew
  • Sydney North7 suburbs · 2 crew

The round only pays if it is tight.

Density is the economics of this trade. Claim the areas the round actually covers and an address outside them never becomes a job.

One app for the whole job

Everything you need to run your knife and blade sharpening business.

Scheduling

One day at a time, the kitchen round sitting in the afternoon and the one-offs ranked into whichever gap adds the least driving to it.

Bookings

Every visit on the round in one list, each carrying its blade count, its priced lines and whether the money for it has landed yet.

Online booking

Your own page, where a chef picks the service, says roughly how many blades and takes the only afternoon window you actually work.

Inbox

A butcher asking whether you take bandsaw blades arrives as a request you accept or decline in the thread, not as a missed call.

Estimates

Itemise a full kitchen set or a season of grooming shears, send it as a link, and let them accept it online by typing their name.

Customers

Every venue is its own record with its own address, its usual blade count and everything you have sharpened for it before now.

Territories

Pick the areas the round really covers from real boundaries, so a drawer of two knives an hour away never lands on the day at all.

Team

Each person carries their own hours and their own services, so only whoever runs the commercial round is ever offered a kitchen slot.

Payments

Record the cash and the transfers by hand for nothing, or send a payment link per visit. Cards are the part that comes with Pro.

Common questions.

Yes, and it is on the Free plan. Pick the day and the interval, say whether it ever ends, and the visits are generated ahead of you.

Yes. Each blade type is a line with a count and a rate, and the invoice for the visit is a PDF built from those same lines.

Price the smallest thing you sell honestly and claim only the areas your round covers. A drawer of two outside the patch cannot book at all.

Yes. Whoever runs the commercial round carries that service and those hours, so the between-services window is the only one a chef is offered.

No. Cash and bank transfer recorded by hand are free. Cards are the part that comes with Pro, and they land in your own account.

Yes. Make it a service that books against your bench rather than a drive, and it sits on the same diary as the round does.
