Not another retail POS.

Most free point-of-sale apps started as a register for a shop counting SKUs. Kasenso started as one for a kitchen counting ingredients. Here's where that shows up.

Feature

Kasenso

Typical free POS

Inventory tracking

Recipe-linked — every sale deducts real ingredients automatically

Typical free POS: Manual SKU counts, no link between a dish sold and stock used

Works with no signal

Full POS, printing, and sync — built in from day one

Typical free POS: Slows down, blocks the register, or stops taking orders

Marketing help

KAISHA drafts posts from your shop's own sales data

Typical free POS: Not included, or a generic caption tool with no data behind it

The free plan

Every feature, no card, no per-terminal fee, not a countdown

Typical free POS: Caps devices, staff, or history, then pushes you to upgrade

Tax setup

Any label you type, off by default, never assumed for you

Typical free POS: Hardcoded "VAT" or "Tax," often on whether you charge it or not

Handing over a receipt

Print it, or send the same PDF with no printer required

Typical free POS: Print only — a digital copy is a paid add-on, if it exists at all

Built for

Food service specifically — recipes, yields, KDS, choices & add-ons

Typical free POS: Generic retail, with food-service features bolted on afterward

“Typical free POS” describes the retail-first tools most shops have tried before, not any one named product — features vary app to app, and plenty of good ones exist. This is where Kasenso made different choices, not a claim about any competitor by name.

None of this is one trick

Recipe data feeds KAISHA's suggestions. Offline-first is what makes the free plan credible at a counter with bad signal. Built for food service is why the recipe and the kitchen display already know about each other. Copy any one row and you still don't have the rest.
