Co-founded a restaurant SaaS tool, with 150+ paying clients

startup | SaaS | B2B

the problem

Most restaurants relied heavily on manual operations for order-taking, billing, kitchen coordination, and inventory management. These disconnected workflows created two major business challenges:

  • Slow order-to-service times caused by manual order-taking and billing processes
  • Revenue leakage through cash theft, unrecorded discounts, free meals, and raw material pilferage
