Most small business software makes owners do the work to get what they want: sales growth and profit growth. Our system drives demand, converts it, and helps operators run their business day to day. We’re starting by helping independent restaurants succeed online. \rBut it’s not just restaurants that need our help. Most local businesses are struggling with these same problems. Huge technology corporations are taking their customers, bleeding their profits, and making it hard for them to survive. \rOnce we nail the solution for restaurants – we’ll scale it into every other local business type. \rIn the future we envision, tens of millions of local business owners will use our technology to succeed in the digital age. \rSince 2020, we've generated tens of millions in revenue and processed over a billion dollars of online orders. com website. \rMore importantly, we’ve helped over 20,000 restaurant owners, and saved them nearly $200 million in fees. \rWe’ve got top talent from the most successful companies in SMB software, including: Shopify, HubSpot, DoorDash, ServiceTitan, Rappi, Faire and Stripe. \rWe’ll be scaling even faster in 2026 to keep pace with our customer growth. \rOwner is a remote-first, global company headquartered in San Francisco, with a sales hub in Toronto.
