From delivery door to Xero in three steps you'll forget are happening.
Capture
Give suppliers your Pinch inbox address (invoices@yourname.pinch.kitchen). Or snap paper in the app. Or drag a PDF. Whatever turns up.
Read & check
Every line is extracted, unit-normalised (kg, case, each) and matched to your PO and price list. Anything off gets a yellow flag, not a silent pass.
Approve & post
One tap sends it to Xero, QuickBooks or Sage with the right nominal codes. Credit notes matched. Your bookkeeper sends you flowers.
Catch the 6p creep before it's a £6k problem.
Suppliers rarely announce price rises. Pinch compares every line to the last three deliveries and tells you the moment something moves — with what it does to your dish margins.
The awkward email, written for you.
Overcharged or short-delivered? Pinch drafts the dispute with the invoice, PO and agreed price attached. You hit send. Credit notes are matched automatically when they arrive.
Dispute draft
Hi Fresh Direct, invoice 48211 charges £11.40/case for plum tomatoes vs our agreed £10.00 (PO-1183, 12 Aug). Please issue a credit note for £5.60. Thanks, Sam.
Your bookkeeper gets clean data. Not a shoebox.
Approved invoices land in Xero, QuickBooks or Sage coded by category — food, drink, disposables, cleaning — with the PDF attached. Month end stops being a thing.
Invoice questions, answered.
Which suppliers does it work with?
All of them. Brakes, Bidfood, Fresh Direct, Reynolds, your local butcher who invoices on carbon paper. If it's legible to a human, Pinch reads it.
What about handwritten delivery notes?
We read those too, with a confidence score. Anything under 95% is highlighted for a two-second human check before it posts.
Do I have to approve every invoice?
No. Set rules — auto-approve anything matching the PO within 2%, flag the rest. Most kitchens approve fewer than one in ten by hand.
Can my bookkeeper have access?
Yes, free. Give them a login and they see approved invoices, codes and PDFs. They will love you.

We'll read it in four seconds and show you what you're paying too much for.
