Some restaurants thrive. Others quietly close.
The difference is rarely the menu. It is whether the people behind the counter have the right tools: one system for every order from every platform, your dine-in and your delivery in one place, full control over every location.
Pronto keeps your restaurant running so you can focus on what matters: your guests.
Best POS solution there is.

"Restaurants don't die from bad food. They die from what owners never see."
Most restaurant failures aren't about the menu. They're about the blind spots — fragmented systems, missed orders, stock that walks out the back door, and numbers no one reconciles until the quarter closes.
At Pronto POS, we built one system that connects every sales channel, every location, and every transaction into a single view. No middleware. No guesswork.
400+ restaurants across the UK, Europe, and the US are already running on it.

Walk into any busy restaurant today.

You'll see:
→ 1 tablet for Uber Eats

→ 1 POS terminal
→ 1 very stressed owner

Now imagine all of that in ONE system.

That's Pronto POS.

Every delivery order flows into one unified dashboard. No missed orders. No manual re-entry. No chaos.

Can you scale a US restaurant business remotely from London?

Pronto POS tested this. and hit a wall.

Our US merchants are being visited by competitors' sales reps, literally walking into stores, shaking hands, closing deals on the spot.

Meanwhile, we're on Zoom from the UK.

After speaking with up to 300 investors, the pattern was clear:

1. Restaurant owners want someone they can meet in person
2. Remote demos convert. but hit a ceiling
3. The sales cycle stalls without local presence

So we're changing the playbook:

→ Cutting £7K/month in paid ads that weren't converting
→ Our lead investor is funding a dedicated US team
→ Hiring 2 US sales reps + 1 Head of Partnerships
→ Shifting to SEO + industry exhibitions

Sometimes growth means physically showing up.

Has your company hit a similar ceiling scaling internationally? 👇

Yesterday we announced our final community round on Republic.

Some people ask: why crowdfunding? Why not just raise from VCs?

Here's our thinking:

1. Customers become investors → the most loyal users you can have
2. VCs want bigger MRR first → community capital helps us get there
3. We've done this before → £460K+ from 400+ backers across Seedrs and Republic
4. Transparency builds trust → community-funded companies are more accountable

Traditional fundraising: convince 1 person to write a big check.
Community fundraising: let hundreds of believers join the journey.

We chose the second path. And we'd choose it again.

Every share helps. 🙏

All-in-one solution POS

Today is a special day for Pronto POS.

Our founder Bexultan Bayekenov celebrates his birthday 🎂

3 years ago, he decided to build a restaurant tech company in London, after experiencing firsthand how broken POS systems were while working in the hospitality industry.

No network in tech. No VC connections. Just a clear problem and the drive to fix it.

Since then, Pronto has grown to:
→ 370+ paying customers across 400+ locations
→ UK, US, and Europe (including PNY Burger in Paris)
→ 5 US retailers live, 1,000+ orders processed
→ £460K+ raised from 400+ community investors
→ AI Business Advisor in development ($200K Google Credits)

Today, on his birthday, we're announcing the next chapter:

🚀 Pronto POS is launching its final community round on Republic.

This is our final community raise before Series A.

Rounds 1 and 2 (on Seedrs and Republic) proved our community believes in what we're building. Now we're going all in:

🇺🇸 US expansion. 2 sales reps + Head of Partnerships on the ground
🧠 AI Business Advisor, turning POS into a strategic partner
📈 Sprint to $100K MRR. The Series A threshold

Our lead investor is backing us with an additional £100K for the US push.

Why Republic? Because our customers and supporters should own a piece of what they're helping build.

11/04/2026

50+ VC conversations. 20+ rejections.

The #1 reason? "Come back at $100K MRR."

But here's what the numbers actually show:

→ LTV:CAC ratio of 4:1
→ £96 avg revenue per location per month
→ 10+ month average customer retention
→ £960+ customer lifetime value
→ £100 one-time hardware fee on top

Pronto POS isn't just growing. It's growing with economics that work.

Current MRR: £35.5K (370+ customers)
Q1 2026 trajectory: £54K MRR (450 customers)
Series A threshold: $100K MRR

We're halfway there. And accelerating.

The path: organic growth + US expansion + AI differentiation.

What metric do you think VCs should care more about? 👇

10/04/2026

What if a POS system could tell a restaurant owner:

→ "Uber Eats is your top channel. Try a Tuesday discount."
→ "Spicy Chicken Burger sales spike on rainy days."
→ "3 customers this week mentioned dirty restrooms."

This isn't a concept deck.
We're building it.

Pronto POS secured $200K in Google Cloud credits to develop an AI Business Advisor, powered by Gemini.

It will analyze:

✅ Channel performance. Which delivery app actually drives revenue
✅ Product trends. What sells, when, and why
✅ Customer sentiment. Operational alerts from real reviews

This is the next step after our recent product updates: a complete UX/UI overhaul and a new Kitchen Display Unit that already help our merchants run smoother operations.

The goal: move POS from a cash register to a strategic business partner.

Restaurant owners shouldn't need a data analyst.
They need a system that thinks for them.

Drop a 🧠 if you'd want this in your business.

Over the past 3 months, the Pronto team reached out to up to 300 investors.

50 agreed to meet.
20 said no (so far).

The top 3 reasons for rejection:

1. "Come back at $100K MRR"
Most Series A funds won't look below this, regardless of unit economics.

2. "We need a US-based team"
A UK company selling to US restaurants? Investors see it as a scaling risk.

3. "How do you differentiate in a crowded market?"
Fair question when you're competing against companies with $100M+ in funding.

Our response to all three:

→ Building an AI Business Advisor, moving from utility to strategic partner
→ Our lead investor is adding £100K specifically for US team buildout
→ Shifting from paid ads to organic growth + industry exhibitions

Rejection is data. Every "no" makes the product sharper.
