If any of these sound familiar, you're our customer.
Tap the ones you recognise — we'll highlight the right tools below.
Delivery App Fees Eat Your Margin
DoorDash, Uber Eats and Grubhub commissions run 15-30%+ — even after NYC's 2025 fee-cap settlement raised the ceiling to 43% in tiered charges. Direct ordering by QR pays no commission at all.
Tip Pool Compliance Is a Lawsuit Waiting to Happen
Tip-pool violations have hit real restaurants with real settlements in 2025 — on top of a $2.13/hr federal tipped wage that varies by state. Clear, itemized tip reporting keeps you out of that exposure.
Locked Into Your POS Contract
Toast and Clover bundle proprietary hardware with card processing in 2-3 year contracts — rates can rise with 30 days' notice and termination fees are real. Asky charges per transaction, no lock-in.
Staff Turnover Costs $150K a Year
Restaurant turnover runs 75-80% annually (National Restaurant Association) — no mandated benefits and at-will employment make it easy to walk. A system new hires learn in one shift cuts what that turnover costs you.
Yelp Reviews You Can't Fully Control
Yelp remains disproportionately influential for American diners, and its ad-driven visibility model has drawn a decade of small-business complaints. Google reviews you can act on the moment they land.
Allergen Labeling Is a 50-State Patchwork
Sesame joined the federal major-allergen list in 2023, and states like Massachusetts layer their own posting rules on top. A filterable digital menu handles every allergen, every state, automatically.
Kitchen Loses the Sequence at Rush
Without a screen ordering tickets by arrival, the kitchen loses track during peak service — dishes go out of sequence and tables wait longer than they should.
Bad Google Reviews
A single bad review on Google can cost you dozens of new customers. Most happen before you even know there's a problem.
The Root Problem
Every customer who orders through a third-party app is a customer you don't own.
No name. No email. No way to bring them back. Asky changes that.
Every tool your venue needs — all in one platform, working as one.
Operate
Simplified operations.
One menu powering table, takeaway and delivery orders. Time-based, with photos, modifiers and dietary tags.
Customers tap, order and pay on their own — at the table, the counter or a kiosk.
Customers scan, order and pay on their phone — at the table, in the queue, or in the room.
Fast, casual-friendly POS that handles the floor. Modifiers, splits, transfers.
Owner, manager, cashier, kitchen — each role gets its own view, permissions and reports.
Bookings and floor plans. No-show tracking, deposits and reminders built in.
Take bookings for tables, events and experiences — with deposits, reminders and capacity limits.
See every table in real time — open, seated, ordering or ready to pay — straight from the floor plan.
Card, contactless, mobile wallet — all settled in one dashboard.
Kitchen display synced with the floor. Orders sequenced, delays surfaced, comms reduced.
Drivers see their queue, route, customer notes and proof of delivery from one app.
A single view of every active delivery, driver and ETA — for ops control in real time.
Live map of pending orders. Smart batching cuts delivery time and fuel cost.
Split by item, by guest or evenly. Closes the table fast at peak.
Returning customers tap once to reorder their favourites. Drives loyalty without effort.
End-of-day, sales by item, COGS, staff hours, variance — finalised the moment you close. No spreadsheets.
Staff start, pause and close their own shifts. See sales, cash in drawer and hours per team member — in real time.
Track ingredients, COGS and variance per menu item. Auto re-order alerts.
Schedule shifts, track hours, manage swaps and approvals — alongside the POS your team already uses.
Automate
Service on autopilot.
One AI brain across WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger — automated replies, same memory, same tone on every channel.
AI replies to every Instagram comment instantly — keeps engagement high and frees your team from the feed.
New followers get an automatic DM the moment they follow — introduce your brand, share your menu or drop an offer.
Remembers each guest across conversations. No "what's your name?" twice.
Suggested responses for staff to send in one tap. Keeps the human voice; saves the time.
The 12 most-asked questions answered instantly, in the customer's language. 24/7.
AI books, confirms, modifies and cancels reservations across channels. Floor plan respected.
AI takes orders from chat with menu modifiers, allergens and upsells handled correctly.
Grow
Drive revenue.
Every order builds a guest profile. Frequency, ticket size, dietary notes — yours, not a marketplace's.
Digital stamp cards, tiered rewards, birthday treats — usage rates 4× higher than paper.
Single-use, multi-use, time-bound. Redeemable at the till and on QR ordering.
Customers refer friends, both get rewarded. Tracked end-to-end in the CRM.
Sell digital and physical gift cards. Recipients spend at your venue — you keep the cash float and pick up a new customer.
Set once, run forever. Birthday treats and lapsed-customer offers fire automatically.
Reach customers where they are. Same campaign, four channels, one dashboard.
A branded site with QR ordering, gift cards and bookings out of the box. Drag-and-drop, no code.
Link every order back to the ad that brought the customer in. ROAS at the venue level.
Send your CRM segments to Meta Ads. Retargeting, lookalikes, win-back audiences — automated.
Conversations that turn into customers — name, email, phone captured naturally in chat.
AI groups your audience by behaviour: VIPs, lapsed, first-timers, big spenders.
