Fourth

By analyzing real-time store data, Fourth iQ provides managers with actionable insights and recommendations that drive smarter, faster decisions—and ultimately, help boost profits across the board. Watch the interview with Branded Hospitality Ventures and see how AI is reshaping restaurant operations! 🍽️

For many, AI still feels like a massive leap. But it doesn't have to be. According to Fourth's Chief Technology Officer, Christian Berthelsen, three fears often hold companies back from adopting AI: 1️⃣ Concerns about functionality and safety 2️⃣ Fear of being left behind 3️⃣ Worry about buy-in At a recent #HOSTECH panel, he shared his belief that adoption isn’t the issue many management teams think it is. Marks and Spencer's Alicia Thompson, Guy Latchem from Moto Hospitality, and David Carey of Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen all agreed wholeheartedly. The other panellists went on to share their success stories of implementing AI, which you can read about in our blog. Link in the comments.
