What Orderli does
Orderli is tableside ordering for bars and pubs in Europe. Orderli works without downloading an app, guests can scan a QR code on the table, browser the menu and order what they want. For the staff we provide a simple app which gives them a better overview who is ordering and control of the orders that are sent to the kitchen. In the backend we use predictions to recommend restaurant owners what to purchase and make changes to the menu in real-time.

Company
Orderli
Square for Europe
Orderli is tableside ordering for bars and pubs in Europe. Guests scan a QR code on the table to browse the menu and order without downloading an app. Staff use a simple app to see and manage orders in real-time. Our backend predicts what owners should purchase and adapts the menu dynamically.
We live and are based in Utrecht and Amsterdam in the Netherlands. We plan to keep the company there after YC.
We're based in the Netherlands because that's where our founders live, and it's a strong market for hospitality tech. Europe is our target market, and we want to stay close to early customers and the team.
