In short

How do I track office food delivery spend from Talabat against a budget?

WebRun reviews your office's Talabat order history every Monday, logs each order's vendor, cost, and date to Airtable, and emails the office manager a weekly spend total compared against the catering budget. It flags orders placed outside normal hours, so unusual spending gets noticed before it becomes a pattern.

  • Weekly food delivery spend is visible before the invoice arrives
  • Every order is logged by vendor for expense reporting
  • Unusual orders outside office hours get flagged for review

Built for Office managers · Startup operations teams · Small business owners · Team leads who order team lunches

Questions, answered

Will it place or cancel any food orders?

No. WebRun only reads past order history. It never places, changes, or cancels an order on Talabat.

How does it track spend against our budget?

It totals the week's order cost in Airtable and compares that running total to the monthly catering budget you set, so overspend shows up early.

Does it flag orders placed by mistake or outside policy?

It flags any order placed outside normal office hours so you can review it, though the review itself is left to the office manager.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
