About Owner.com

Owner is the all-in-one platform that restaurants use to succeed online.

Thousands of restaurant owners use our tools to build their website, drive online orders, create their own branded app, manage their customer relationships, and set up marketing automations.

Our vision

We’re starting by helping independent restaurants succeed online.

But it’s not just restaurants that need our help. Most local businesses are struggling with these same problems. Huge technology corporations are taking their customers, bleeding their profits, and making it hard for them to survive.

Once we nail the solution for restaurants – we’ll scale it into every other local business type.

In the future we envision, tens of millions of local business owners will use our technology to succeed in the digital age.

In just over 3 years we've generated tens of millions in revenue, served millions of guests, and processed hundreds of millions of online orders.

More importantly, we’ve helped thousands of restaurant owners save their businesses - and not only survive, but thrive.

Our team

Our team grew from under 100 to nearly 200 talented people in 2024. We’ve got top talent from the most successful companies in SMB software, including: Shopify, HubSpot, DoorDash, ServiceTitan, Rappi, Faire and Stripe.

We’ll be scaling even faster in 2025 to keep pace with our customer growth.
