 The company reimagines the restaurant guest experience and develops an omnichannel digital ordering platform that uses AI and Machine Learning to power a guest preferences engine.

To provide a seamless experience to guests and restaurant brands, the company needs to communicate with a broad and ever-growing array of external services.
