Why BottleUp
Everything behind the bar, in one app
From the week's rota to the last bottle in the fridge, BottleUp handles the back-of-house faff so you can look after the front.
Your bar at a glance
Upcoming shifts, quick actions and one big Bottle Up button — the whole venue on one dashboard.
Build and publish shifts
A weekly rota grid with per-person hours for managers, a clean My Schedule view for staff — plus shift swaps and time-off requests.
Order stock from suppliers
Stock counts and supplier lists in one place, with AI scanning for price lists and invoices so nobody types them in by hand.
Snap a shelf, get instant countsAI
Photograph a fridge and the AI scanner spots exactly which bottles are missing — down to brand and flavour.
Manage staff and venue
Roles and permissions, payroll estimates from real hours, and QR-code invites that get new starters set up in seconds.
Works without signal
Cellars have terrible Wi-Fi. BottleUp keeps working fully offline and syncs the moment you're back in range.
Bottle Up — the AI fridge scanner
Snap a shelf, get instant counts
The bit nobody else does. Point your camera at a fridge and BottleUp tells you exactly what needs topping up — no clipboard, no counting on fingers.

Missing bottles flow straight into your stock counts and supplier order, ready to send.

What the trade is saying
These quotes are placeholders — swap in real reviews from your pilot venues or the app stores.
“The fridge scanner is basically witchcraft. I snap the shelves at close and the order's half written before I've cashed up.”
“The rota used to eat my Sunday night. Now it's twenty minutes on the sofa and everyone's phone pings with their shifts.”
“Staff actually know when they're working now. Swaps sort themselves out in the app instead of in the group chat.”
