Guestro

About the company

Guestro is the AI-powered operating system for restaurants, combining several tools in one platform: menu & pricing optimization, loyalty, digital signage, business intelligence, guest portal, automation, and integrations. Restaurants using Guestro report up to 30% higher revenue, 40% lower tech costs, and 25+ hours saved per week. With over 25,000 restaurants in Sweden and 1.6M in Europe, where most still lack proper digital solutions, Guestro is tackling one of hospitality’s most pressing challenges.

Impact:

  • Economic: empowering independents with the same digital muscle as large chains.
  • Social: strengthening restaurants as cultural and community hubs.
  • Environmental: reducing food waste and optimizing resources (aligned with UN SDG #12).

 

Risk management

  • Technology Risk: mitigated by proven SaaS architecture and development

    partnership.

     

  • Market Risk: restaurants vary in digital maturity; addressed via simple onboarding,

     

    ROI-driven sales, and ambassador customers.

     

  • Competition Risk: most players are fragmented (POS, review sites, agencies).

    Guestro offers a 7-in-1 AI-first platform.

     

  • Regulatory Risk: GDPR and payment compliance managed with established

    partners and internal routines.
