Live customerFeatured story

GOOOD Mansfield runs on VenueOS every shift.

The platform ships there before it ships anywhere else. Real customers, real payroll, real compliance. We eat what we cook.

  • Ordering, events, payments, kitchen display, bookings, compliance, loyalty, marketing and more.
  • On takeaway and delivery. The third-party tax other platforms charge stays in your venue.
  • Shipped, run and supported by the same engineering bench that built it.
  • One customer record across the whole stack.

Products

Three products. One thesis.

Friction compounds. The right software flattens it. Each product applies that idea to a different part of life or business.

From the founder

We build software inside the problems we solve.

VenueOS was built inside a real working venue. Keptable started with a £3,000 booking we lost ourselves. CoreShift is built on a theory we're willing to put our own life through. We ship from inside the problem, not from a deck.

The IT-services arm exists because owner-operated businesses in our area get sold the same opaque contracts and surprise invoices that frustrated us when we worked the other side. We do the opposite: fixed prices, written quotes, transparent monthly bills, one named human on the line.
