The Bar Inventory App
That Works While You Sleep
BarGuard runs in your browser on any device — phone, tablet, or desktop. Your POS syncs every 5 minutes automatically. No app store. No install. Just open it and your data is there.
Your sales sync automatically — no manual import
Connect your POS once. BarGuard pulls sales every 5 minutes via Vercel Cron — including when you visit the sales page mid-shift, which triggers an instant sync for today's data.
Square
OAuth connection. Full sales history + real-time sync.
Toast
Credential-based API. Auto-refreshes tokens. Menu items auto-created on first sync.
Clover
OAuth flow. Syncs modifiers, quantities, and check-level data.
Everything a bar manager needs in one app
Built for the floor, not a spreadsheet power user.
Count Now — mobile counting screen
Open on your phone, filter by category, and tap through each item. Saves to the database as you go.
AI invoice scanning
Photograph your paper invoice. AI reads every line item and matches it to your inventory automatically.
Bottle scan (partial level detection)
Scan a bottle with your phone camera. BarGuard estimates the remaining ounces from the fill level.
Shift-based variance
Select Happy Hour, Dinner, or Late Night. One click runs the calculation for that time window.
Reorder alerts
Set a reorder threshold per item. BarGuard flags when stock hits critical levels so you never run out mid-service.
Team access controls
Give managers inventory access. Give bartenders drink library access only. Role-based permissions built in.
