v1.0.0 · Released — taking on new bakeries

Built for how a bakery actually works

Retail software mostly assumes you sell things that already exist. A bakery makes what it sells, that morning, from ingredients that expire — which is a different shape of problem. Capacity is the constraint, waste is the cost, and the day is over by noon.

BakeScope is built around that. It keeps products, orders, planning, and the records that connect them in one place, so a second location, a wholesale account, or a staff change does not turn into missed orders.

What it covers

Products and pricing

One catalogue with costs and prices attached, so margin is a property of the product rather than a spreadsheet someone maintains separately.

Orders

Online and phoned-in orders in one queue, with booked revenue and what is still unpaid visible without adding anything up by hand.

Bake planning

Weekly plans and capacity, so what gets committed to customers matches what the oven and the staffing can actually produce.

Customers and subscribers

Standing orders, wholesale accounts, and the mailing list, kept with the orders they relate to instead of in a separate address book.

Labels and printables

The paper a bakery still runs on — labels, pull sheets, and day-of lists — generated from the same records rather than retyped.

A public API

Products, availability, and order submission are available to a storefront, so the website and the back office never disagree about what is for sale.

Proven on a working bakery

Blair Breadworks is BakeScope's first tenant. Every part of the platform was shaped against a bakery genuinely using it rather than an imagined one, which is why the awkward parts of the domain — the ones that only surface at 5am — are handled rather than designed around.

Its storefront runs on BakeScope's public API, so the same records drive both the website and the back office. You can see that site in the portfolio.

Availability and pricing

BakeScope reached v1.0.0 and is ready for new bakeries. Pricing is still being finalised, so there is no sign-up form yet — get in touch and we will talk through whether it fits how your bakery runs, and what onboarding would involve.
