The Problem

Restaurants throw away significant quantities of prepared food at closing time daily with no simple way to sell it at a discount to nearby consumers who would buy it, wasting both food and potential last-minute revenue

Why It Works

“Too Good To Go has validated this market category strongly in Europe with slower US adoption, leaving regional and city-level opportunities for local marketplace operators”

Source · Evidence

Recurring complaint pattern in office management and EA communities about group lunch coordination being a weekly time drain with no lightweight tool that works across any restaurant rather than just platform-partnered ones

Source · Evidence

Recurring complaint pattern among young professionals about Venmo reimbursement friction after group food orders with no pre-order payment collection tool that works independently of a specific delivery platform

Recurring Office Lunch Scheduler

Automates recurring team lunch orders with rotating restaurant picks and dietary preference memory

The pain

Source · Evidence

Recurring complaint pattern among office managers and EAs in admin professional communities about weekly lunch coordination being the highest-friction recurring task with no automation tool available outside enterprise catering platforms
