Built for the things that actually shut trucks down

Health permits · Fire & hood inspections · Food-handler cards · General liability COIs · Commissary agreements · Vehicle registration

Everything that can close you down, in one place

Stop juggling glove-box folders, inbox reminders, and sticky notes. CartLedger keeps the whole picture current.

One timeline for compliance

Permits, inspections, certifications, COIs, and commissary agreements — every expiry date in one place, per truck.

Reminders before expiry

Get warned by email well before anything lapses, with SMS and voice escalation on higher plans. No more surprise shutdowns.

Scan a document, we file it

Upload a permit photo and our AI reads the dates and details for you to confirm — no manual data entry.

Sales → weekly P&L

Connect Square and see net sales, food cost, and profit by day, week, or month — with a clear chart, not a spreadsheet.

Inventory that updates itself

Sales auto-deplete your ingredients through recipes, so you always know what's on hand and what to reorder.

Know what actually makes money

Per-item margins, your food-cost %, and which menu items to push or drop — straight from your real sales.

Up and running in an afternoon

No consultants, no spreadsheets. Three steps and you're covered.

01

Add your trucks & docs

A profile per truck; type in permits or scan a photo and let the AI pull the dates.

02

Connect Square

Sales flow in automatically, building your inventory usage, food cost, and P&L.

03

Stay open and in the black

We warn you before anything expires and show you exactly where your money goes.

“I used to find out a permit lapsed when an inspector told me, or when I got the notification in the mail. Now I can keep track of everything, and find out a month early, from my phone, and computer. Tracking everything using this software has made managing my permits so much easier, and it sure beats having to use spreadsheets and Google Calendar to automate everything manually”

— Adrian Hernandez, Peyos Authentic Mexican Cuisine
