Where we come from
Before we were teammates, we each saw a different side of how restaurants work—and how much invisible effort great hospitality requires.
Hospitality experience meets technical curiosity.
Felix, Andrew, Moritz, and Aaron bring together computer science, business, and hospitality. What connects us is simple: we care about making ourselves useful, and we believe the best ideas begin by listening to the people closest to the problem.

Hospitality, firsthand
Our team includes a former host, two former servers, and a former steward.

What keeps us moving
Stay curious. Stay close to the floor.
Our best work comes from conversations—with restaurant teams, diners, mentors, and one another. We're proud of how far we've come, and even more interested in what we still have to learn.
