What Qvian is
Qvian is connected business-management software for restaurants, hotels, retailers, dive centres, professional-service businesses, and non-profit organisations. For restaurants, it covers table seating or QR tabs, orders with modifiers and covers, kitchen tickets, serving, and bill settlement. Its kitchen display shows tables, dishes, modifiers, and elapsed preparation time. Recipes link dishes to costed ingredients; when a dish sells, its ingredients are deducted from stock and food cost is shown against menu price. Dine-in, takeaway, and delivery orders share a kitchen flow and stock. Diners can order by scanning table QR codes or through the Consumer App, which also supports payment and live tracking. QuickBooks Online accounting entries sync in one direction. Guest Messaging brings WhatsApp, Instagram DM, and Facebook Messenger into a unified inbox, though only WhatsApp is listed as available; Instagram and Messenger are planned. The Public Booking API lets external sites and applications integrate availability, services, and bookings using API-key authentication. Restaurant/Cafe costs 2,500 MVR a month per location, with unlimited users. Billing is monthly, cancellation is available anytime, and new organisations start with a trial.
