Elite POS
Cloud-based Point of Sale system with inventory, invoicing, reports, and analytics.

Electron, Next.js, Laravel, MySQL
Elite POS runs on the till but thinks in the cloud — a desktop point-of-sale app that keeps working offline and syncs inventory, invoicing, and sales analytics the moment connectivity returns.
Retail staff needed a POS that couldn't go down during a sale even if the internet did, while owners needed cloud-level reporting and multi-branch inventory visibility.
We built the till application in Electron with a local-first SQLite cache that syncs to a central MySQL store through the Laravel API, and a Next.js reporting dashboard for owners to view sales and stock across every branch.
What the platform does
Screens
How we got there
Discovery
Observed till operations during peak hours to design around real checkout speed needs.
Architecture
Chose a local-first data layer so checkout never depends on live connectivity.
Build
Built the Electron till app and the cloud reporting dashboard on a shared sync protocol.
Rollout
Piloted in one branch before rolling out inventory sync across the full network.
Zero checkout downtime recorded across six months of use, including internet outages
Gave ownership same-day, multi-branch sales visibility for the first time
Cut manual stock reconciliation time by roughly 70%
“We used to close the till when the internet went down. Now the internet is almost beside the point.”
