After raising a pre-seed from George Kottas, the founder of Ghost Kitchens Brands, we began our journey into co-founding and building the most effective restaurant technology for Ghost Kitchens. Ghost Kitchen Brands is a virtual restaurant that runs multiple food brands: Cinnabon, iHOP, Cheesecake Factory, and many others out of one single location. The result is sixty-plus delivery tablets ringing at the same time, everywhere. Our goal was to minimize employee error, streamline operations and increase revenue.
We built the platform using a scalable tech stack from the ground up utilizing modern languages and frameworks such as Golang, React Native, PostgreSQL and Kubernetes. At the time of writing, our platform ingests ~1,000,000 orders annually through our web and physical kiosk applications, as well as through official integrations with Uber, Doordash and GrubHub.
I am grateful to have been part of the co-founding team. Building a startup was an pheonomenal experience. I look forward to sharing all of the lessons learned with my future colleagues.
