Case study Hospitality · Mumbai and Dubai · Four tools

Photograph your menu.
Get a QR in three minutes.

Restaurant owners do not have a marketing team, and they do not have an afternoon. We built four tools that each solve one problem a restaurant actually has, and every one of them finishes in under five minutes with no sign-up.

From our office
Not a lab. A working agency.

Every tool here was built for a real client with a real deadline, by the people in this room.

The rule we built to: if an owner cannot finish it between two lunch covers, it is too complicated.
01 · The situation

Restaurant software is built for chains. Most restaurants are not chains.

Twelve years of restaurant clients, and three of our founders who ran three of their own in Mumbai. The same four things come up in every single conversation, and the existing tools all want a subscription, an onboarding call and a week.

menu_book
"I need a QR menu"

Usually because a price changed and reprinting is expensive. The quotes come back at a monthly fee.

loyalty
"How do I get people back?"

Paper stamp cards get lost. Loyalty apps want the guest to install something. Nobody installs anything for a cafe.

star
"We have forty reviews"

Happy guests do not review. The asking is the hard part, and staff will not do it awkwardly.

savings
"Where is my money going?"

Aggregator commission, dead social accounts, a website nobody visits. Owners rarely add it up.

02 · What we built

Four problems. Four tools. No onboarding.

The QR menu builder
menu_book
Tool 01
QR digital menu

Take a photo of the printed menu. It reads every dish, price and section, and builds a clean mobile menu with a QR for the table. Change a price in ten seconds and never reprint again.

The loyalty card builder

Tool 02
Digital loyalty card

A stamp card or a scratch card, in the browser, no install for the guest. Set the stamps, set the reward, and tie collecting a stamp to leaving a review or a follow.

Tool 03
Review booster

The guest answers three tap-only questions about their visit. Their own words become a review draft, and they land on the Google review page with it ready to paste.

Tool 04
LeakCheck revenue audit

Fourteen questions, two minutes, and an honest number for what the restaurant is losing every month. Aggregator commission, dead social, an invisible listing. It is a diagnosis, not a pitch.

A photo of the menu in. A live QR out.

Four tools, each finished between two lunch covers, with no sign-up and no demo.

03 · The one that matters

A photo of the menu is the whole setup.

The QR menu is the tool owners ask for first, so it had to be the one with no work in it.

04 · Why they are free

A useful tool is a better first conversation than a pitch.

An owner who has just built their own QR menu in three minutes already knows what we are like to work with. That is worth more than a cold email, and the LeakCheck audit tells them the truth about their own numbers whether or not they ever hire us.

The old way in
  • closeCold outreach to owners who are on the floor all day
  • closeA deck about what an agency could do
  • closeValue promised, nothing delivered yet
The new way in
  • checkThey get a working QR menu before they know our name
  • checkThe audit hands them a number they cannot unsee
  • checkThe first call starts with something they already use

Where this comes from

We ran three restaurants in Bombay before we ran an agency.

BKC, Borivali and Thane. Everything in these four tools is a problem we had ourselves, at a counter, on a Friday night, with no marketing team and no time. That is why none of them ask you to book a demo first.

Could a free tool be your best salesperson?

Every industry has a job its customers do badly with a spreadsheet. Build the tool that does it, give it away, and the conversation starts itself.
