The AI copilot for modern restaurants.
Kintow helps restaurants become more profitable. Kintow monitors food and labor costs and uses AI to help them improve: recommending what to change and automating core workflows.
Kintow is an AI-powered operations platform for restaurants that aims to unify and automate inventory, pricing, labor, ordering, and related workflows. It emphasizes turning disparate tools into an orchestrated system to monitor costs, flag issues, and automate tasks in real-time.
Kintow provides voice-enabled AI for inventory counting and operations, integrating with existing tools (PDFs, documents, Slack, Amex, Square, Gmail, etc.) to track food costs, labor costs, and ordering. It offers automated ordering, smart cost alerts, cash flow insights, and AI-driven answers to data questions. The platform orchestrates ordering, invoice capture, price checks, and staffing to keep systems in sync and reduce manual spreadsheet work, with alerts and reports delivered in real time or on demand.
Who itβs for: Restaurants and cafe concepts seeking to unify fragmented tech stacks, optimize costs, automate ordering, and gain real-time operational insights.

I launched Uber Eats in dozens of cities in the southeast. I was the first product hire at Blank Street where I built their membership program, Blank Street Regulars. I was also the first Product hire at Nash (a16z company), helping land customers like Walmart, Square, 7eleven, and Woolworths.

I've spent my career as a software engineer. I led the ML engineering team at Audible, where I scaled search and discovery. Before that I've built and led machine learning and data science teams at multiple startups, including Sidecar Health and LeaseLock.
