Who’s Behind CaffexaOS?

Meet the operator who’s helped shape the coffee industry for 20+ years.

Kelley Smith, Founder & CEO of CaffexaOS, has spent more than two decades building, training, and supporting coffee operators nationwide. She has personally trained over 200 cafés, led barista education programs, redesigned shop operations, and built the systems that help independent shops grow and stay profitable.

After years of watching cafés lose thousands each month to hidden milk waste, syrup overdosing, staffing inefficiencies, and underpriced drinks, Kelley realized what the industry was missing: a real-time, beverage-specific profitability system built for operators who don’t have time to be analysts.

CaffexaOS was created to solve the problems she has seen inside shops every single day—with an operator’s eye, not a software company’s guess.
Why it matters?
CaffexaOS isn’t a generic restaurant tool.

It’s built by someone who has lived in coffee shops, fixed their systems, mapped out their margins, and seen where they bleed money.

If you run a café, mobile coffee bar, boba shop, smoothie bar, or beverage-driven business, this platform was built for you—by someone who understands your world.

What beverage operators told us

Across dozens of conversations with café, tea, smoothie, and boba operators, the same problems came up again and again.

We can’t see where drink waste is happening until it’s too late.

Milk waste and syrup over-pours are killing our margins.

Our POS doesn’t explain why profit changes week to week.

Spreadsheets slow us down — we need real-time alerts.

Restaurant systems don’t understand drinks at all.

Restaurant Tools

Generic software was built for pizza shops and burger joints, not beverage operators.

Café Tools

Milk waste tracking. Syrup variance. Shot yield modeling. These are beverage problems.

CaffexaOS: The Beverage Profitability OS

Built by operators who lived the invisible profit leaks. Engineered specifically for beverage-driven concepts.

Every feature in CaffexaOS is built directly from these operator conversations.

Your POS knows what you sold. CaffexaOS knows what you earned.

If 70–90% of your revenue comes from drinks, your biggest losses don’t show up on your POS — they
show up in your drinks.

Over-steamed milk → $500–$1,800/month lost

Syrup over-pours → $380–$620/month lost

Inconsistent shot yield

Unrung modifiers

Smoothie ingredient spikes

Seasonal drink mispricing

Bar labor mismatches

What actually changes

The gap between blind operation and precision is enormous

Enterprise tools for independent operators

CaffexaOS delivers the same beverage intelligence that Starbucks and Dutch Bros use. Built specifically for operators who own the business, not the corporation.

The first OS built exclusively for beverage-first operators.

Enterprise intelligence that Starbucks and Dutch Bros use — now built for independents.

You get instant visibility into:

Milk usage & waste
Syrup variance
Shot yield modeling
Seasonal drink profitability
Labor efficiency by drink demand
Vendor spike detection
Actual vs theoretical usage

Restaurant systems assume food drives revenue and ingredients scale evenly.

Beverage businesses are different:

Fast-moving ingredient costs
Volatile seasonal menus
Bar-driven labor
Micro-recipe margins

Your business behaves differently. Your tools must too

Daily clarity that changes behavior.

Each morning:

Actual drink margins
Waste (milk, syrups, fruit)
Top profitable drinks
Underperforming items
Labor alignment by drink demand
Vendor cost spikes
Actions to protect profit
FOUNDER AUTHORITY

Built by beverage operators — not software engineers.

“We built CaffexaOS because restaurants systems never understood beverage businesses.”

Only CaffexaOS sees what your business actually needs

What CaffexOS Will Do:

Track beverage cost & profit in real time

Detect waste before it drains your margins

Show which drinks make or lose money

Give AI-powered recommendations you can act on instantly

Bar-flow labor modeling

Process

Why Operators Have Joined the CaffexaOS Waitlist

Based on real cafe performance data, the average shop loses:

"Based on real-world POS and invoice data we analyzed, coffee shops are losing $800-$4200 per month in milk waste alone"

"Modeled syrup variance alerts saved an average of $300-$600 per month in preventable waste."

"8-15% weekly in labor overspend AND 20-35% of drinks are underpriced."

CaffexaOS shows you these leaks in real time.

Built with operators, for operators

CaffexaOS is shaped by real conversations with beverage operators across the country.
Owners, managers, and bar leads helped validate the biggest margin leaks — milk waste, syrup over-pours, shot drift, unrung modifiers, and seasonal drink pricing mistakes.

We’re now opening early access for cafés who want to fix these problems before they hit the POS.
