Built for 5–15 room guesthouses in the Himalaya

The notebook by the stove just retired.

Bill Inn is the digital running tab for small Himalayan guesthouses. Tap an order in eight seconds, settle a flawless bill at checkout — and keep taking orders when the valley loses signal.

The competitor is paper

The notebook by the stove is honest work.
It also leaks money every night.

Curling pages, a chai ring, the pen that walks off. Room 3’s order lands on Room 5’s page; Tuesday’s thukpa never gets written at all. Every chai that slips through is pure lost margin.

The unwritten chai

A shout from the terrace, wet hands, a full kitchen — and that round of chai is never billed. Leaked items don’t cost the guest a rupee. They cost you.

Checkout is twenty minutes of adding

Three pages of scrawl, a taxi at the gate, the total said out loud — twice, because the first one felt wrong.

“We never had that paratha”

Maybe they didn’t. Maybe they did. The notebook can’t say — so you swallow the cost and the awkwardness both.

Same khata. Same handwriting in your head.
This one just never forgets a chai.

The cost of paper

One forgotten chai a day is ₹14,600 a year.

The notebook doesn’t lose money loudly. It leaks — one un-written chai, one dinner bill nobody could read at checkout. Here’s the year, added up honest.

What slips through Per year
Forgotten chai ₹40 × 1 a day ₹14,600
One unreadable dinner bill ₹440 × 1 a week ₹22,880
Bill Inn, everything included ₹1,000 a month, flat ₹12,000

Bill Inn costs ₹1,000 a month — and you make it back in the chai you stopped forgetting. Less than a thaali a day.

Offline-first · the signature trick

The valley loses signal. Bill Inn doesn’t.

Don’t take our word for it — cut the line yourself. Every order is written to a durable outbox on the phone first, then synced in the background when the network returns.

Staff keep tapping orders. Each one travels phone → outbox → server in under a second. Now flip the switch.

Signal · on Go on — cut the signal. Orders keep flowing.
Staff ordering

Three taps. Eight seconds. Faster than finding the pen.

No menus inside menus, no typing, no training day. If a flow is slower than scribbling in the notebook, we redesign it until it isn’t.

STEP 01
Tap the location

One grid for everything — rooms upstairs, tables in the café, the terrace. No hunting through screens.

STEP 02
Tap the items

The whole menu on one screen, biggest sellers first. Tap twice for two chai. Done.

STEP 03
Send
Send — the chef’s phone pings

The order lands on the right tab and the kitchen gets a WhatsApp instantly. No shouting down the stairs.

0:08 SEC

Median time from “two chai for Room 3” to the order sitting on the tab and the chef’s phone buzzing. The pen is still in the drawer.

Two billing paths

Room tabs add up. Table bills clear.

A guesthouse isn’t a restaurant and isn’t a hotel — it’s both at once. Room tabs add up until checkout; table bills clear when the group leaves. Bill Inn keeps the two kinds of money separate, automatically.

Staying guests The room tab adds up

Every chai, dinner and bonfire-night maggi lands on the guest’s running tab, day after day. It keeps adding up until checkout — then one clean, itemised bill.

DAY 1₹310
DAY 2₹740
DAY 3₹520
DAY 4₹780 + room

Walk-ins The table bill clears

Trekkers stop for thukpa, pay, and walk on. The table bill clears when the group leaves — and the table is instantly clean for the next group.

Guest QR portal

Guests order from the blanket. No app. No signup.

A QR code by the bed opens the menu in the browser — along with everything guests usually shout downstairs to ask.

Kitchen hours & house rules — fewer knocks on the kitchen door
Order from anywhere — the terrace, the trail, the blanket — straight onto their tab

Built where it’s used

Made for the mountains, not the metro.

Cold kitchens, flaky towers, busy season chaos. Bill Inn was designed in guesthouses like yours — for the ₹6,000 Android already in your pocket.

Aapke sawaal · आपके सवाल

Dost ki tarah poochho.
Hum bhi dost ki tarah batayenge.

Jo dar dimaag mein hai — cook, paper, signal, purana phone — woh sab yahaan likha hai. Phir bhi confusion ho? Seedha WhatsApp karo, founder khud reply karta hai.

Founder ko WhatsApp karo
Mera cook English nahi padh sakta. Chalega?

Haan, bilkul chalega. Cook ko app kholna hi nahi padta. Order aap dabate ho, uske WhatsApp pe seedha ping jaata hai — kamra number, item, kitna. Bas itna.

रसोई को मैसेज Room 4 · 2 thaali, 1 chai

Signal nahi aata yahaan. Phir bhi chalega?

Haan. Bill Inn offline pe chalta hai. Order lo, guest check-in karo, checkout karo — bina ek bhi bar ke. Jab signal waapas aata hai, sab khud-ba-khud sync ho jaata hai. Aapko kuch karna hi nahi.

Wapas khaate par jaana ho to? कोई दिक्कत?

Koi dikkat nahi. Ek tap mein cancel. Aapka saara data — bills, guest history — export karke de denge, PDF ya Excel mein. Woh aapka hai.

Aur khaata to rahega hi. Bandh karke kal phir paper utha lo — koi retention call, koi behes nahi. Promise.

Purana Rs 6,000 wala Android chalega kya?

Haan. Hamne 8 saal purane Rs 6,000 ke phone par, 2GB RAM mein test kiya — aaram se chalta hai. Android 8 ya uske upar, kuch bhi chalega. Naya phone lene ki zaroorat nahi.

Phone gum gaya ya kharaab ho gaya to?

Tension nahi. Jab bhi signal milta hai, data server par sync ho jaata hai. Koi bhi doosra Android lo, apne number aur OTP se login karo — jahaan chhoda tha, wahi se shuru. Kuch data nahi jaata.

Guest ka number safe rahega? डेटा बिकेगा तो नहीं?

Guest ke number sirf aapke phone aur hamare server par rehte hain, encrypted. Hum na bechte hain, na kisi ko dete hain. Kisi bhi guest ki history kabhi bhi delete kar sakte ho. Zero marketing calls. Kabhi nahi.

Paisa kitna? Koi chhupa hua charge to nahi?

Rs 1,000 mahina, bas. Pehle 30 din free — card bhi nahi maangte. Ek din ki thaali se bhi kam. Koi setup fee, koi commission, koi chhupa charge nahi.

Season’s coming

Retire the notebook before the season starts.

Set up takes one evening and a phone you already own. By tomorrow’s breakfast orders, you’ll wonder why the khata lasted this long.
