Overview

Knead offers plans designed for home bakers and cottage food businesses at every stage. Whether you are taking your first custom order or managing a full production schedule, there is a plan that fits.

How Pricing Works

Knead uses a tiered subscription model. Each tier unlocks more features as your business grows. You pay a monthly or annual subscription fee — no per-order charges, no hidden fees. For current pricing and plan details, visit kneadapp.co.
Good to know: Pricing and plan names may change over time. The most up-to-date information is always available on the Knead website.

What Is Included

Here is a general overview of what different tiers offer. Higher tiers include everything in the tiers below them.

Core Features (Available on All Plans)

Every Knead plan includes the essentials for running your baking business:
  • The Board — Your customizable order form that customers use to place orders.
  • Order management — Create, track, and update orders from enquiry to delivery.
  • Client list — Automatic client profiles built from your orders.
  • The Counter — Your dashboard showing an overview of your business activity.
  • Inbox — Manage customer conversations in one place.

Growth Features

As your business picks up, you need tools that help you handle more volume:
  • Invoicing — Send professional invoices with online payment links (Stripe connection required).
  • The Sweet Spot — Calendar and capacity planning to see your availability and avoid overbooking.
  • The Pass — Production checklists generated from your confirmed orders.
  • The Pantry — Ingredient tracking with cost calculations.
  • Recipe management — Build and cost recipes tied to your products.

Advanced Features

For established bakers running a high-volume operation:
  • Advanced reporting — Deeper insights into revenue, popular products, and customer trends.
  • Priority support — Faster response times from the Knead team.
  • Additional customization — More control over branding, order form settings, and workflows.

Monthly vs Annual Billing

Knead offers both monthly and annual billing options. Annual plans come with a discount compared to paying month-to-month. You can switch between monthly and annual billing at any time from your subscription settings.
Pro tip: If you are trying Knead for the first time, start with monthly billing. Once you are confident it fits your workflow, switch to annual to save.

Stripe Fees Are Separate

Your Knead subscription covers the platform. Payment processing fees from Stripe are separate and charged by Stripe directly on each transaction. Knead does not add any markup to Stripe’s rates.

Choosing the Right Plan

A few questions to help you decide:
  • Are you taking fewer than a handful of orders per week? The core plan covers your needs.
  • Are you sending invoices and managing a weekly production schedule? Look at the growth tier.
  • Are you running a high-volume operation and need advanced insights? The advanced tier is built for you.
You can upgrade or downgrade at any time. Changes take effect at the start of your next billing cycle.
