sentiami.

The all-in-one operating system for restaurants.
Replacing 10+ fragmented SaaS tools with a single, data-unified platform.

The problem

Restaurant tech is broken

Fragmented tooling

A typical restaurant uses 8–12 separate SaaS products: POS, online ordering, reservations, inventory, HR, loyalty, kitchen display, accounting. Each with its own login, bill, and data silo.

Siloed data, zero intelligence

Sales data in the POS. Ingredients in the inventory tool. Staff costs in the HR app. No cross-system insights. True dish profitability is invisible.

Expensive in aggregate

SMB restaurants pay €400–900/month across separate subscriptions. Integration costs (Zapier, custom glue) add more. Most can't afford to connect their tools.

Why now?
  • Post-COVID digital shift — restaurants now expect cloud-based tools but are overwhelmed by choice
  • AI inflection point — unified data makes ML-powered forecasting, pricing, and staffing possible
  • No dominant all-in-one in Europe — Toast is US-only; European market is wide open
The product

One platform. 22 features. 90%+ coverage.

Sentiami is a modular SaaS platform where restaurants enable only what they need. Every module shares the same database, same UI, same login.

Business model

Two revenue streams. Predictable + high-margin.

1. Pay-per-order SaaS
From €0.29 / order

Usage-based pricing that scales with the restaurant. Tiered rates based on enabled modules. Low barrier to entry. Revenue grows with customer success.

Recurring, usage-aligned
2. Lifetime license
One-time payment

All modules. Unlimited orders. Perpetual license with free updates. Higher upfront cash, attractive for established restaurants.

High-margin, immediate cash
Future revenue layers
Payment processing margin | AI feature upsell | Marketplace (themes, integrations) | On-premise enterprise deals
The data moat

Unified data creates compounding value

Because every module writes to the same database, Sentiami accumulates a uniquely rich dataset no single-purpose tool can replicate. This is the foundation for an AI-powered future.

Now — Cross-module reporting

True dish profitability, customer 360, waste detection, staff cost attribution.

Next — Predictive intelligence

Demand forecasting from reservations + weather + history. Prep planning. Dynamic pricing.

Future — Autonomous operations

Auto-reorder from suppliers. Shift optimization. Menu engineering recommendations.

Data flowing from restaurant operations through unified database to AI-powered insights
Traction

Early but real

Go-to-market

Land in Finland, expand to Nordics, then Europe

Expansion map from Helsinki to Nordics to Europe
Phase 1 — Finland (now)

Direct sales to single-location restaurants in Helsinki metro. Finnish language is a moat — Toast, Square don't operate here.

Phase 2 — Nordics

Sweden, Norway, Denmark. Similar dynamics, underserved by US platforms. Add local language packs.

Phase 3 — Europe

Partner-led expansion. White-label for restaurant groups. Enterprise on-premise for chains.

Key insight

Restaurant owners talk to each other. One deployment in a neighborhood creates organic word-of-mouth. The product is the marketing.

Let's talk.

We're raising a pre-seed round to accelerate customer acquisition in Finland, hire one full-stack engineer, and build the AI features that turn unified data into intelligence.
