For people who cook and sell where they live
NeighBuy is the software a home food business runs on. Keep selling to your neighbours exactly the way you do now — and stop losing the orders, the hours and the profit that WhatsApp costs you.
Built for resident sellers, their neighbours and the communities they live in. Nothing to install for the people buying from you.
So keep it for those. What it cannot do is hold an order still — and the cost of that is paid in hours, measured here against a hundred orders a day.
Typing orders back out of a chat window. About thirty seconds each, a hundred times, every day, on top of the cooking.
Telling thirty people their food is ready, one message at a time — open WhatsApp, find her, type, come back. Most people send a few and give up.
One order today
One order on NeighBuy
Nothing in the top row is difficult. It is six different places, and no two of them know about each other — so the counting, the chasing and the remembering are all yours.
See how it works
Step through it. The statuses, the pickup code and the payment band are the real ones from the product.
Step 1 of 6
No app, no account, no password. She has ordered from you before, so her flat is already known and she is not asked for it again.
Two portions, ₹500, collect after 12:30.
Step 2 of 6
Counted against your quantity the moment she ordered — so nobody else can buy a portion that is already gone. You confirm it, or it confirms itself if you took it yourself.
Your stock came down by two. The database decided, not a check that ran a moment earlier.
Step 3 of 6
Not as a line to read — as a number added into the total. Two of hers plus everybody else’s, with combos broken into their parts.
One action moves the whole service to preparing. You do not start “order 0043”.
Step 4 of 6
One tap moves the whole service to ready and opens your own WhatsApp with the message already written. Thirty separate messages is about seventeen minutes standing still.
The group message carries no names, no order numbers and no amounts.
Step 5 of 6
She reads out her code. One result, rendered large, with a paid-or-not band you cannot miss. About ten seconds, standing up, one hand.
Undo is available for thirty seconds afterwards, because hands slip.
Step 6 of 6
She paid you directly by UPI. Not turnover — what is left after the chicken, the gas and the boxes, and what that came to for every hour you wrote down.
The money never passed through us. There was nowhere for it to sit.
Cook from one list instead of counting messages. Hand an order over in ten seconds. Tell thirty people their food is ready with one tap, not thirty.
Combos are exploded into what you actually cook: 20 veg meals and 5 standalone dals is 25 dals on the list.
Not turnover. What is left after the chicken, the gas, the boxes and the petrol — and what that comes to for every hour you worked.
And it says how sure it is. A month costed from real numbers reads differently from one filled in with an estimate, and the screen shows which.
Your WhatsApp number stays yours. Your customers stay yours. Money goes straight from your neighbour to you and never passes through us.
Export every order, customer and product to a spreadsheet whenever you like, including on the day you leave.
The number nobody works out
Turnover feels like success. Profit divided by the hours you actually worked is the number that says whether the business is worth your life — and no other tool for this trade will tell you.
It also tells you how sure it is. Dishes with no cost recorded are left out of the money rather than counted as free, because a missing cost read as zero shows a hundred per cent margin, which is the most flattering possible wrong answer.
She taps the link in the group and she is looking at today’s food. No app, no account, no password — and that is not a launch compromise, it is a rule we hold ourselves to.
Every one of these is checked automatically, on every change, forever.
Where we actually are. Live since August 2026, in one community, with three sellers. That is the whole of it, and we would rather say so than invent a number.
We would rather tell you that than put up logos and a testimonial we have not earned yet. Everything on this site is a screenshot of something that works today — the parts that are still being built are labelled as such and have no picture.
Tell us what you sell and where. We will reply within a working day, and we set the whole thing up sitting with you — your products, your prices, your customer list.
Free while we onboard our first sellers. No contract, no cut of your orders.
