Why leading hospitality operators are replacing fragmented tech stacks
with a single, connected guest experience platform.
"Stop serving strangers."
Great till system, but transaction data stays siloed. Knows what was ordered — not who ordered it or if they'll come back.
CRM + reservations, but charges per cover. Expensive at scale. Requires its own onboarding, training, and API integrations.
Booking engine — but wait, you're already paying SevenRooms for reservations. Duplicate functionality, duplicate cost.
Email and push marketing. But who are you marketing to? Without unified guest data, you're blasting lists with no context.

Lightspeed, SevenRooms, ResDiary, and Airship all rely on guests actively booking or buying to capture data. Walk-ins — often 40–60% of covers — remain invisible.

Name, email, and visit timestamp captured instantly. No friction.
Every visit, booking, purchase, and interaction enriches the same profile.
Birthday offers, lapsed-guest win-backs, and targeted promos fire automatically.
More repeat visits, higher spend, better reviews — all from data you already had.
Auto-capture every visitor. No forms, no friction.
One profile per guest. Every touchpoint unified.
Unlimited reservations. Zero commission. Google integrated.
Email, SMS, automated campaigns. Data-driven, not batch-and-blast.
