Restrofi vs UrbanPiper — The honest comparison
UrbanPiper is an aggregator middleware that connects your existing POS to Swiggy and Zomato. It is not a dine-in POS. Restrofi is a complete restaurant management system — QR ordering, KDS, GST invoicing, and AI analytics — that also integrates with delivery platforms.

Frequently asked questions
Is UrbanPiper a restaurant POS or a delivery middleware?
UrbanPiper is primarily a delivery aggregator middleware — it connects your existing POS to Swiggy, Zomato, and ONDC. It is not a dine-in POS, KDS, or billing system.
Can Restrofi replace both UrbanPiper and my existing POS?
Restrofi replaces your dine-in POS completely — QR ordering, KDS, GST invoicing, and analytics. Delivery aggregator integration (Swiggy/Zomato) is on the Restrofi roadmap.
Does Restrofi offer a KDS unlike UrbanPiper?
Yes. Restrofi includes a full real-time KDS that runs in any browser. UrbanPiper has no native KDS — you need a separate system.
Does Restrofi handle GST invoicing that UrbanPiper does not?
Yes. Restrofi auto-generates GST-compliant invoices with CGST/SGST/IGST breakdowns. UrbanPiper handles order routing only — no invoicing.
Which is better for a restaurant that does both dine-in and delivery?
For dine-in, Restrofi is the clear winner — complete POS, KDS, QR ordering, and AI analytics. For delivery-only operations relying on Swiggy/Zomato integration, UrbanPiper remains strong.
