Small restaurants and art galleries lack affordable, customizable software to replace expensive monthly subscriptions for POS, table management, online ordering, reservations, marketing, and website management.

Existing solutions like Clover require expensive monthly subscriptions and lock merchants into specific payment processors. Off-the-shelf solutions lack flexibility and integration, forcing businesses to cobble together multiple tools. For art galleries, no affordable website management tool exists that handles frequent content changes without a dedicated staff member.
