Supply ordering and daily stock check-ins for small restaurants, inside a WeChat mini program.在微信小程序里完成小餐馆的进货下单与每日库存盘点。
Snapshot概览
Headline traction: 核心数据:27 owner interviews · 6 letters of intent访谈店主 27 位 · 意向书 6 份 · Partly verified部分核验
1. Problem1. 要解决的问题
Small restaurants order supplies through scattered chat messages and phone calls, and count stock on paper. The result is waste, last-minute stock-outs and no record of what was ordered from whom at what price.小餐馆通过零散的聊天消息和电话进货,用纸笔盘点库存,结果是浪费、临时断货,也没有“向谁、以什么价格、订了什么”的记录。
2. Solution2. 解决方案
Concept: a WeChat mini program with each supplier's catalogue, one-tap reorders based on par levels, and a two-minute daily stock check-in with photos. Suppliers receive one consolidated order per restaurant. Today it is a clickable prototype, not a working product.构想:一个微信小程序,内含各供应商商品目录、按安全库存一键补货,以及每天两分钟、可拍照的库存盘点。供应商每家餐馆只收到一张合并订单。目前只是可点击的原型,并非可用产品。
3. Market & competition3. 市场与竞争
Investor's view: the number of small restaurants is very large, but so is competition from large delivery and supply platforms that already reach these owners. The open question is who pays — restaurants, suppliers, or both — and whether a solo founder can win distribution city by city.投资人视角:小餐馆数量非常庞大,但已经触达这些店主的大型外卖与供应链平台同样是强劲对手。核心未知数是谁来付费——餐馆、供应商,还是两者——以及一位创始人能否逐个城市打开渠道。

Every metric carries a status. “Founder-reported” means ProofMarket has not seen evidence yet — treat it as a claim to check.每项指标都标有状态。“创始人自报”表示 ProofMarket 尚未看到证据——请把它视为待核实的说法。
5. Team5. 团队
Solo founder — five years as an operations manager at a regional restaurant chain; non-technical and looking for a technical co-founder. Identity confirmed by video call. Name shared only after investor review and an agreed intro.单人创始人——曾在一家区域连锁餐饮企业担任五年运营经理;非技术背景,正在寻找技术合伙人。身份已通过视频通话确认。姓名仅在投资人通过审核、且双方同意引荐后提供。

The founder is seeking introductions to reviewed investors, for an indicative range of Under $50k to cover about 9 months. Planned use of funds:创始人希望对接经审核的投资人,资金需求参考区间为 5 万美元以下,计划覆盖约 9 个月。资金计划用途:
| Build the MVP (contract developers)开发 MVP(外包开发) | 60% |
|---|---|
| Pilot operations with restaurants餐馆试点运营 | 25% |
| Legal and operations法务与运营 | 15% |
This is a founder seeking intros, not an offer.
