Custom platforms for personal chefs

Your own branded platform
for your chef business.

Replace spreadsheets, text messages, and patchwork tools with one complete platform — custom-branded for you and hosted at your own domain like app.yourbusiness.com.

Not just a tool — a real business asset that helps you grow revenue and increase the value of your business.

The problem

You're running a premium business on tools that weren't built for you.

Every personal chef we know runs their business out of some combination of spreadsheets, text messages, and Gmail. Then wonders why clients don't take them more seriously.

01

Your operations live in five places at once

Spreadsheets for menus. Text messages for orders. Gmail for confirmations. Stripe for billing. Squarespace or WordPress for the website. Nothing talks to each other and you spend half your week on data entry instead of cooking.

02

Generic SaaS puts someone else's brand in front of your clients

The handful of meal prep platforms that exist look like accounting software with food logos. Your clients see the vendor's name everywhere, not yours. You can't charge premium prices on a tool that doesn't feel premium.

03

You're a chef, not an IT department

You didn't go to culinary school to become your own customer service rep, web developer, and order tracker. Every hour spent on operations is an hour you're not in the kitchen growing your business.

What we build

One platform for everything. Branded just for you.

If your chef business still runs on spreadsheets, text messages, and Gmail — there's a better way.

We build you a client portal that lives at your own domain like app.yourbusiness.com. Your clients open it in any browser, browse your weekly menus, order online, and pay you — and all they see is your name and your brand.

Behind the scenes you get everything you need to run your business: meals, menus, orders, billing, client profiles, kitchen prep, messaging, and more. No downloads. Nothing with someone else's logo on it.

Your branded client portal

Your clients log into a portal at app.yourbusiness.com that looks and feels like an extension of your kitchen. They see your name, your colors, your brand — never ours.

  • Custom domain & branding
  • Client login & profiles
  • Dietary preferences & allergies

Complete ordering & billing

Weekly menu builder, per-section pricing, dietary tags, automatic confirmations, Stripe billing with multiple payment methods, and branded invoices. The full back-office your business actually needs.

  • Weekly menu builder & sections
  • Stripe payments & branded invoices
  • Multiple payment methods

Kitchen prep & analytics

Prep lists, ingredient totals, delivery manifests, staff scheduling, revenue analytics, and retention tracking. Run your kitchen like a business, not a hobby.

  • Prep lists & delivery manifests
  • Kitchen staff portal & calendar
  • Revenue & retention analytics
The process

From spreadsheets to a real platform in three weeks.

01

Discovery call

30 minutes

We learn how you actually run your kitchen. What works, what doesn't, what's eating your time. No pitch, no jargon. We figure out together if this is the right fit.

02

We build & launch

2 to 4 weeks

We deploy your platform at app.yourbusiness.com, apply your branding, import your existing clients and menus, and train you live. You go from spreadsheets to a real platform in under a month.

03

You grow

Ongoing partnership

We host it, back it up, patch security, ship new features, and stay available when you need us. You stay focused on your kitchen and your clients. No contracts, no lock-in — your data stays yours and you can leave anytime.

Pricing

Honest pricing.
Two ways to start.

Pick how much hand-holding you want during setup. Both tiers get the full platform — same features, same product, same every future update. The difference is how much we do for you.

The studio

Built by someone who understands both the kitchen and the tech behind a real chef business.

MiseChef Studio started out of a simple observation: every personal chef we knew was running their business out of spreadsheets, text messages, and Gmail. Then wondering why clients didn't take them more seriously.

We build operational platforms the way a chef builds a tasting menu: with intention, in conversation, and tailored to the person it's for. Every chef gets their own deployment, their own domain, their own brand. Your clients see your business, not ours.

Our mission is simple. Give independent chefs the kind of technology that used to belong only to restaurant groups and venture-backed meal kit companies.
