Truffle

Truffle is the first AI-native operating system for the hospitality back-of-house. Restaurants, cafes and bars still run on a patchwork of disconnected point solutions, spreadsheets, clipboards and tribal knowledge, which costs the industry billions each year in stockouts, food waste, and lost profit. Truffle replaces that entire stack with one system. Computer vision and voice AI capture real-time inventory levels 90% faster than manual counts, ML models forecast item-level demand at 97% accura
