We make Yorishiro,
the semi-intelligent devices that help in bars, coffee shops and restaraunts.
About
We love and adore HoReCa. Having spent most of our careers producing abstract SaaS, we decided: no longer. That's how Yorishiro Devices were born.
Yoroshiro are AI-enabled objects whose purpose is to increase revenue, traffic and customer satisfaction within coffee shops, bars and restaraunts. They collect zero personal data and provide lots of insights—all in the natural language.

Watches tables, entrances, exits and the outdoor traffic (but never people!) Helps with capacity insights, better interior designs, marketing programmes efficiency and much more.
🎵 Inko the Music Player
Coming up in 2024

Goals
Better for coffee shops
Valuable insights for everyone
From customer preferences to capacity to marketing efficacy, Neko will calculate it all! Neko will work with your POS system to decrease waste, deliver audience insights and propose ways to make it all better.
Better for customers
Better and personal service
Neko is always listening to your tastes, complaints and praises and will show it to the managers in anonymized and rephrased form. Better service, better drinks and better attitude all the way around.
Always ethical
Zero personal data collected
Neko isn't recognizing faces and doesn't record any speech. It forgets everything that doesn't have to do with coffee shop service and is thus legal according to all the privacy laws.
