One PC holds the whole shop
Everything lives on the PC you sell from, so it keeps working with no internet connection.
How it works · No server
Kade runs on the PCs you already have. They keep each other up to date over your shop network, with or without the internet.
HW-001 · The shop network
Scroll through six moments in a shop's day.
Everything lives on the PC you sell from, so it keeps working with no internet connection.
Pair a new PC with a one-time code. PCs find each other on the shop network.
Each sale or change becomes a signed record, shown here as a receipt chip like R-A26-000123, and it travels to the other PCs.
The shop network keeps every till in sync without the internet. A PC that is switched off just waits its turn.
A PC that was switched off catches up with the records it missed. Every PC ends with identical books.
Encrypted, verified backups are made automatically.
HW-002 · Side by side
| Question | Kade | Typical cloud POS |
|---|---|---|
| Needs internet to sell | No — sells offline | Usually yes |
| Monthly fee | None — pay once | Monthly |
| Where your data lives | On your PCs | On the provider's servers |
| If the provider shuts down | Keeps working | Depends on the provider |
| PCs included | Up to 10 included | Often per device |
HW-003 · More than one shop
Kade syncs over the shop network by default. If you run more than one location, you can turn on syncing over the internet in Administration. It is optional, and traffic between your PCs is end-to-end encrypted.
HW-004 · Kept safe
Every change is recorded as a signed record, so any later alteration can be detected.
Each PC has its own code in the document numbers it issues, so two PCs never issue the same number.
Owner, Manager and Cashier roles decide who can sell, discount, void or see the numbers.
Sign-ins, voids, discounts and price changes are logged. Not even the owner can delete entries.
Backups are integrity-checked, compressed and encrypted with your backup password.
After the 90-day trial, Kade becomes read-only until you buy: you can still view, report, export and back up.
