Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Restaurant Solution (E-commerce via WhatsApp + POS + CRM/Marketing)

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a platform that lets restaurants in Latin America create digital menus and promote them instantly via WhatsApp. Restaurants receive orders directly on WhatsApp, powered by our POS and CRM tools that also boost their marketing. This simplifies online ordering for mass market eateries without requiring new apps or tech skills.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work across Lima, Callao Region, and Lima Province in Peru, with some remote team members. After YC, we will remain based in Lima and continue remote operations.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Lima is where we have our main users and team. The market fit and growth happen here, so we're best positioned to stay local and remote rather than relocate.
