Hey Product Hunt! I'm the maker of Swiftab.
I built this because setting up digital ordering felt way harder than it should be for small businesses. Most solutions assume you have a tablet, a dedicated device, or a developer on call. A lot of small café owners and food stall operators just want customers to scan something and place an order — without the setup headache or the monthly fees that come with traditional POS systems.
So I built Swiftab: a PWA-based QR ordering system where you set up your store once, share a link or print a QR code, and orders start coming in. No app download for customers. No hardware. Works on any phone.
A few things I focused on:
— Real-time order dashboard, so you see new orders the moment they come in
— Dead-simple menu management, with no technical knowledge required
— A free plan that actually lets you run a real store (not just a trial)
It's been a side project built lean — the fixed cost is under $2/month, running on Vercel and Supabase free tiers. That's also why I could keep the paid plans affordable.
Would love to hear from anyone running a small food or retail business — what would make this more useful for you? Happy to answer any questions.
