Built for fine-dining wine programsThe AI sommelier that helps you run your beverage program.
Sommelier expertise. Analyst precision.
Reordering, inventory, reports, the bottle to pour tonight — all in plain conversation, from your real numbers. Just chat.
Three bottles of Sassicaia. Par is twelve.
“We ran out of Sassicaia on a Saturday because nobody pulled the par.”
“I text orders to my reps at midnight and I'm never sure they got them.”
“We have ten distributors, three cut-off days, and I miss one a month.”
Every piece lives somewhere different — the POS, a spreadsheet, the rep's texts, the GM's memory. Alba is the one that watches them all, and acts before service exposes the gap.
From low-stock alert to delivered. In one tap.
Watch
Alba reads your sales every night and knows what's about to hit zero — on par levels and thresholds you can tune any time.
Propose
Three sized options that respect the distributor's minimum, cutoff, and delivery calendar. In the app, by text, or by email.
Send
Reply A, B, or C. Alba writes the order, tracks the delivery, and updates your inventory the moment you confirm it arrived.
No portal for your rep
Your rep gets the order by text and email with a one-tap confirm. No portal, no login, nothing to install on their side — Alba handles the back-and-forth.
All three clear the $400 minimum. Reply or tap to send.
Your POS knows what happened. Alba knows what to do next.
Alba reads your whole operation — and brings both a sommelier's judgment and an analyst's precision to it.
Analyst precision
Depletion velocity, projected stockout dates, by-the-glass margins, spend per distributor. The numbers behind every answer — read from your POS, never re-typed.
Sommelier judgment
What to pour with tonight's menu, what to push by the glass this week, where your list has gaps. Wine sense, applied to your cellar.
Your numbers, not the internet
Your stock, your sales, your distributors' minimums and cutoffs, your costs. Alba answers from your operation — not generic wine facts.
It proposes, you decide
Alba drafts; you confirm. Nothing leaves without your tap, and every action lands in an audit log you can read. A wingman, not a replacement.
Boutique cellars in fine dining.
Restaurants where the wine list matters as much as the menu. Where the by-the-glass program needs nudging weekly, the by-the-bottle list moves seasonally, and the rep relationship matters. 30 to 80 cover dining rooms. 50 to 500 SKUs. Italian, French, Spanish, German, American — wherever your cellar leans.
If you sell more domestic light beer than wine, Alba isn't for you.
Beta onboarding is open.
Alba is in beta with fine-dining restaurants, and we set each one up personally. That's not a waitlist — it's how the product gets good.
What works today
The reorder loop, inventory, reports, and Ask Alba are live with beta restaurants right now — on real sales, real distributors, real orders.
What we tune with you
Your POS export, your catalog, your par levels, your distributors' calendars and minimums — set up with you, not handed to you.
What you get
Founder-led setup, a direct line to the people building Alba, and real say in what gets built next.
The questions we hear on every call.
My GM already does this in his head.
Until he doesn't, or until he leaves. Alba is the version of his head that doesn't go on vacation.
We tried inventory software. It's a chore to keep updated.
Most inventory tools ask you to count. Alba watches the POS and the orders instead — your team steps in for counts, exceptions, and decisions, not data entry.
I don't want AI sending orders on its own.
It never sends without your confirmation. Alba proposes; you decide. Always. Every action it takes is in an audit log you can read.
What about my data?
Your data is yours — export anytime, no lock-in. We sell to restaurants, only restaurants: distributors never see your numbers. Alba is read-only on your POS. The six promises in the footer are the contract.
How much does it cost?
Pricing is by quote while we're in beta. As a yardstick: less than one stockout a month. We'll show you the math after a 15-minute walkthrough so it's apples to apples.
Why not just use ChatGPT?
ChatGPT doesn't know your stock, your prices, or your distributors. Alba does — that's the whole point.
Do my reps need to install anything?
No. Your rep gets the order by email and text with a one-tap confirm link. No portal, no login, no app on their side.
Join the beta.
Tell us your restaurant and your POS — that's enough to start. We reply personally, and we'll show you Alba running on your own numbers in about 15 minutes.
