porch for food trucks

Park anywhere. They’ll find you.

One link for your truck: where you’re parked right now, this week’s stops, the menu with what’s sold out, and a heads-up to your regulars every time the window opens. We build it from what you already post. You claim it and roll.

Free. Nothing to download. Lives in the link in your bio.

Where are you today?

Set your week once. porch says it every day.

Add your stops: the spot, the address and the hours, every Tuesday or just this Saturday. When a stop opens, your page says Open now with directions, your porch light comes on for everyone who follows you, and a post goes out with a room for the line. When you close, it all turns off. You never stop cooking to post.

  • Parked somewhere new? Tap Open here now. It’s pinned where you’re standing.
  • Closing early? One tap, and the page says when you’re back.
  • Out of birria? Tap it, and the menu says sold out before anyone gets in line.
  • On my way. Regulars tap it, and you see how many are coming.

What they see

The lunch rush

The window opens. Every regular knows.

On most apps, a feed decides who sees your post, hours too late. On porch, your truck lights up on every follower’s home screen the moment you open, with a room where they ask “still got the curry?” and you answer once for everyone. When the race is to the line, you’re already posted.

Your light.On while you’re open, off when you’re not. Everyone who follows you sees it.
Your room.Every stop gets one: the line, the specials, sold out of sandos. Newest on top.
Your regulars.No algorithm in between. Everyone who follows you sees every stop.

Too loud to hear anyone

Answer from the window, between orders.

The oven’s roaring and the line’s talking, so customers ask right from your page instead. Keep your window open on a phone or tablet in the truck: every question comes up big enough to read from the grill, the screen flashes when someone asks, and one tap answers. They see your answer the second you send it.

  • One-tap answers. Yes, no, about a 15 minute wait, ready in 10, sold out today.
  • The line, at a glance. Tap how long it is, and your page says so.
  • Tell everyone. “Fresh out of the oven” goes on your page and to every follower.
  • Answer once. Pin the good answers, and nobody has to ask about vegan cheese again.
  • Phone in your pocket. Put the window away and questions still reach you: an alert buzzes the moment someone asks.

Everything else

Specials, drops and the merch table.

Post a special, a merch drop or a pop-up and it stays on top as a live post until it’s over, with its own room. Add your shirts and hats with prices, a link to book you for catering, and a gallery of the food. It’s all one link.

Questions

What does it cost?

Nothing. porch is free while it’s in early preview.

Do my customers need an app?

No. Your page opens in any browser, from your bio, a QR code on the window or a text. Following you takes a free porch account.

I already post on Instagram. Why porch?

Keep posting there, and put your porch link in your bio. It’s the one place that always says where you are right now, with directions and your menu, even on the days you don’t post.

Who can change my page?

Only you, once you claim it. Before that it’s private: only someone with the link we send you can see it.

Can I run it from my phone?

Yes. Everything works on a phone, and you can add porch to your Home Screen so it opens full screen, like an app.
