BOH Wiz is the only restaurant prep-list app that talks directly to a thermal label printer at your prep station. Your team taps an item, the label prints. No second app. No double-typing the product name. No monthly subscription. $299.99 printer, $129.99 labels, $0/month, ever.
The restaurant labeling market is split into two camps that never talk to each other.
Software companies (PrepWizard, Ecolab Flex) sell prep-list and labeling apps. Label companies (DayMark, NCCO) sell rolls of dissolvable labels. Neither side builds the bridge: the prep list lives in one place, the label printer lives somewhere else, and a cook stands in front of both with a Sharpie.
BOH Wiz built both halves and made them talk. That's the whole product. That's why the line on the homepage says "the only prep list that prints itself."
From prep list to label in one tap. Three screens.
Open the BOH Wiz app on the kitchen tablet. Today's prep list is already there (items, quantities, who's responsible), synced from the central recipe database.
"Pico de gallo, 6 qt, prep done." Single tap. The app already knows the prep time, the chef, the recipe, and the shelf life. Nothing to type.
Bluetooth-paired Zebra ZD411 at the prep station spits out a clean, machine-printed label with product, time, prepping chef, and use-by date. Stick it on the deli quart. Move on.
Every printed label gets logged in the app. The day before its use-by date hits, the team gets a notification. FIFO without anyone climbing through the cooler with a flashlight.
The single most expensive thing on most labeling-system websites is the word "monthly."

Labels are a separate consumable on both sides. Call that a wash. The number that actually matters is the recurring software fee. Ours is zero.
One location, one chef-owner, no IT department. You want the printer to work, the labels to print, and to never see a renewal email. That's us.
You're past the cash-register stage and want consistency across stores, but enterprise labeling systems are absurd at your scale. Already running at Dave & Buster's, TGI Fridays, Chuy's, Biaggi's, and Ancho & Agave kitchens.
If "subscription" makes you wince, you're the right customer. We made this because the existing options felt designed to bill you in perpetuity, not solve a kitchen problem.
If you need a corporate dashboard tracking 200 stores' food cost in real time, Ecolab Prep-n-Print Flex is built for that. We're not. We'd rather be honest than lose your time.
If your team is content with masking tape and a Sharpie, we won't pretend BOH Wiz solves a problem you don't have.
PrepWizard is $10/month, ongoing. BOH Wiz is one-time $299.99 with no software fee. After 30 months, you've spent more on PrepWizard than on a BOH Wiz printer. After 5 years, twice as much. The functionality is comparable; the recurring cost isn't.
Ecolab Flex is built for enterprise QSR chains and priced like it. BOH Wiz is built for independents and small chains and priced like that. Different products for different markets.
No. The BOH Wiz app runs on any iPad, iPhone, or Android tablet you already own. Most kitchens already have a tablet at the prep station. You just install the app.
1-year warranty on the Zebra. After the warranty, Zebra ZD411s are widely available; you're not locked into our hardware.
Hit the contact form. The phone in there rings to one chef-developer in Chicago, not a sales team. We'll do a 10-minute screen-share.
It's a one-person operation. If you want a 50-rep account team and a CSM with a Slack channel, that's not us. If you want the product to work and the founder to pick up the phone when it doesn't, that's exactly us.
We ship the printer and a roll of labels. If it doesn't work for your team in 30 days, send the printer back for a refund. The labels are yours either way.
