There's an easier way to run your restaurant

You didn't get into this business to stare at spreadsheets. Expo lets you talk through your business the way you'd talk to a trusted partner.

How it usually goes
  • Quick glance at the POS before you lock up
  • Shoebox full of invoices you'll sort... eventually
  • Find out your food cost at your quarterly accountant visit
  • Gut feel on whether you should cut someone
  • Discover you're short when rent bounces
  • Sysco raises prices and you don't catch it for weeks
How it goes with Expo
  • Wake up to yesterday's full recap in your texts
  • Snap a photo of each invoice — Expo tracks it all
  • Ask "what's my food cost?" and get a real answer
  • Get a text when labor is running high — then ask what to do
  • "Will I make rent this month?" — Expo knows before you do
  • Talk through pricing, staffing, costs — like a real partner

Up and running in 5 minutes

No software to install. No training. No IT guy needed. Just connect your accounts and start texting.

1

Connect Your POS

Tap one button to connect Square. Expo starts pulling your sales, orders, and labor data right away.

2

Link your business checking in 60 seconds through Plaid. Expo watches your deposits, bills, and balance.

3

Start Talking

Text Expo like you'd text a business partner. Ask questions, talk through decisions, get advice — all in plain English.

Like texting a partner who knows everything

Expo doesn't just report numbers — it thinks with you. Ask it anything about your business and get a real conversation, not a dashboard.

Morning Recaps

Every morning at 7am, Expo texts you a recap of yesterday — what went well, what didn't, and what to watch today. Like a manager's briefing, in your texts.

Smart Alerts

Labor creeping up? Sales dropping? A deposit missing? Expo texts you the moment something looks off — before it becomes a real problem.

Food Cost Conversations

Text a photo of any invoice and Expo tracks it. Then ask "what's my food cost running?" or "did chicken go up?" and talk through it.

Invoice Scanning

No more shoeboxes. Snap a photo of your Sysco or US Foods invoice and text it over. Expo reads every line item and confirms with you.

Cash Flow Advice

"Can I afford a new hire?" "Is rent going to be tight?" Expo knows your balance, your bills, and when things are coming due.

Talk Through Anything

"Should I cut someone today?" "How does this week compare to last?" "Am I actually making money?" Have real conversations about your business.

Restaurant owners love Expo

Don't take our word for it.

"I used to find out I was losing money at the end of the quarter. Now I know by 7am the next morning. Expo paid for itself in the first week."

Maria G.

Owner, Maria's Taqueria

Detroit, MI

"I just text it a photo of my Sysco invoice and it tracks everything. No more spreadsheets, no more guessing what my food cost is. It just knows."

James T.

Owner, JT's Coney Island

Dearborn, MI

"It texted me that my labor was at 38% on a slow Tuesday. I was overstaffed and had no idea. That one alert saved me $400 that week alone."

David K.

Owner, King's Pizza

Warren, MI

One simple price. Everything included.

No tiers. No add-ons. No surprises.

Questions? We've got answers.

How is this different from my Square dashboard?

Square shows you data — Expo thinks with you about it. You can ask "Should I cut someone today?" and get an answer based on your current pace, labor cost, and sales trends. Plus Expo connects your POS to your bank to your invoices, giving you a complete picture Square alone can't.

Do I need to download an app?

Nope. Expo lives in your text messages — the same place you text your family, your staff, your suppliers. There's nothing to download, install, or log into.

What POS systems does Expo work with?

Right now, Expo connects with Square. We're working on Toast, Clover, and others — if you use a different system, let us know and we'll prioritize it.

Can Expo see my bank password or move my money?

Absolutely not. Expo connects through Plaid, the same service used by Venmo and thousands of other apps. We can only read your transactions and balance.

How does the invoice scanning work?

Just take a photo of any supplier invoice with your phone and text it to Expo. Our AI reads every line item, price, and quantity — then confirms with you before logging it.

I'm not great with technology. Can I still use this?

That's exactly who we built Expo for. If you can send a text message, you can use Expo. No dashboards, no reports, no software to learn.

Can I cancel anytime?

Of course. No contracts, no commitments, no cancellation fees. If Expo isn't helping your business, you can cancel anytime.

Your restaurant deserves
a partner who never sleeps.
