Software development for hotels and restaurants
Hotels, restaurant groups and cafés come to us with the same three problems: bookings come through portals that take a cut; menu and rate information is out of date on the site; assistants recommend from review sites, not your page. An app that ships and stays running.

What hotels and restaurants usually need
- Direct booking engine
- Menu and order management
- Loyalty with a phone number, not an app download
Questions your buyers ask assistants
These are the queries where you should be the answer. Each one needs a page that answers it in the first paragraph, carries an author and a date, and is reachable by AI crawlers.
- best hotel near [landmark]
- [restaurant] menu prices
- [hotel] cancellation policy
What we would ship first
- Product engineeringCustomer-facing platforms built to be handed over, with tests and documentation that survive us.
- Mobile appsReact Native and Expo apps on Android and iOS, with the store listings, crash reporting and release pipeline in place.
- Multi-tenant SaaSTenant isolation, billing, roles and the admin panel you need to run it. We have shipped four of our own.
- Internal toolsThe unglamorous systems that replace eleven spreadsheets and a WhatsApp group.
How the engagement runs
- Scoping sprint. Two weeks. We map the workflows, the data and the risks, and hand you a plan with a fixed price for phase one.
- Build. Weekly demos on a staging URL. Nothing is described in a slide that could be shown in a browser.
- Launch. Release pipeline, monitoring, store listings and a written runbook before the first real user.
- Run. A monthly retainer covers on-call, dependency updates and the small changes every live product needs.
Software we already run for this sector
- Inventorini. Cartons and loose pieces, counted the way a godown counts them.
- Wattwise. What every appliance really costs, before the bill jumps a slab.

Questions people ask
- Have you worked with hotels and restaurants before?
- Our own products serve this sector directly, and the scoping sprint is designed to learn your process in two weeks rather than assume it.
- Do you take over existing codebases?
- Yes. The scoping sprint starts with a written assessment of what is there, what we would keep and what we would replace.
- Who owns the code?
- You do, from the first commit. Repositories and cloud accounts are created under your organisation.
- Do you build mobile apps?
- Yes. React Native and Expo for Android and iOS. Our own Aqua Core OS app is on Google Play.
