"Oh God, not another restaurant management software!" But wait.... That was my immediate reaction when I read on TechCrunch that 'Superorder raises $10M to assist restaurants in maintaining their online presence.' I have no affiliation with the company, but as a VC, I cannot help but ponder the investments being made into startups. Restaurant management software is a legacy software category that should no longer attract venture capital. However, when reading about Superorder, it serves as a compelling example of what we at Accelerace call BETA. For that reason, the investment might actually make sense. BETA is a term that describes a significant shift and change in customer needs and behavior. Superorder focuses on helping restaurants manage what they refer to as off-premise dining (takeaway and delivery). This happens to be the part of the restaurant world that is undergoing the most change. When we invest, we always look for BETA. So, in this context, the investment round could make sense after all. If you got a startup that has BETA. Let me know about it 😊

Our foray into #foodtech started as a small experiment during the thick of the pandemic. It's grown into quite a significant mainstay now. Our goal is to scale and serve the "very large long tail" (thousands of apps including seed and pre-seed startups) who find it painful to manage the messy world of #integrations and #migrations! https://lnkd.in/gbdPCG_s LINK

Summary: This article discusses the importance of an online presence for restaurants and the challenges they face in maintaining it. It also introduces Superorder, a platform that provides websites, menus, photos, and tools for order management, marketing, financial management, and more to restaurants, which recently raised $10 million in a funding round. Key takeaways: Restaurants need to adapt and become good at technology to protect their margins and grow their sales. 77% of diners visit a restaurant’s website before they dine in or order out from the establishment. Superorder provides websites, menus, photos, and tools for order management, marketing, financial management, and more to restaurants. Counter arguments: Many virtual restaurants struggle with the cost of finding additional delivery people and marketing a location that’s virtually invisible to the public. There are concerns about the accuracy of AI-generated images for virtual restaurants, as inaccuracies could lead to lawsuits over false advertising. #startups #venturecapital #capitalmarkets #foodtec #consumertech #startup #vc #fundraising #marketanalysis

In a turbulent restaurant technology ecosystem, we too often hear about the companies that are all flash and don't deliver or the ones that crash and burn leaving their customers to sort out the wreckage in their tech stack. What you don't hear about quite as often are the companies with 👉 technology that just simply works 👈 - the companies that drive scale and stability in a restaurant tech stack, get the job done on behalf of their customers, and deliver on promises made. Thomas Kaiser at Food On Demand sat down with Vishal Agarwal, founder and CEO of ItsaCheckmate to talk about the "planes that land" and how we help restaurants of all sizes chart a successful flight plan to reach digital maturity. 🛫

One of the main reasons I joined ItsaCheckmate is the reputation it has in the industry as a company that is passionate about restaurant technology, cares deeply about their customers, and delivers on their promises.  Because of this, we have the privilege of serving an amazing roster of restaurant customers of all sizes and formats. As a testament that the “technology just works” we have some of the highest CSAT scores and lowest churn rates I have ever seen. The result - we have built a business that might not be all the glitz and glam, but definitely gets the job done.  And at the end of the day, results are what matter, right? Need more proof that our interests are aligned with our customers? 1️⃣ We don’t handcuff customers with long term contracts 2️⃣ We aren’t beholden to Wall Street expectations 3️⃣ Scores of restaurant software companies are building to our platform and joining our Marketplace 4️⃣ We are profitable and hiring to create the best first and third party platform possible by investing in our core product, delivering new functionality in Insights and Reconcile, and acquiring companies like Open Tender, that fit our vision of helping customers reach digital maturity
