Who we are
At Tenzo, we’re transforming the way restaurants operate. Our restaurant PerformanceOps platform brings together data from multiple systems to deliver real-time, actionable insights — helping operators boost sales, cut waste, and run smoother businesses. As one of our customers put it, “It’s helped us make smarter, faster decisions and spot opportunities we might have missed before.”
We’re a team of food lovers and tech enthusiasts backed by top-tier Silicon Valley investors and guided by awesome advisors including Jane O'Riordan and Floor Bleeker. We partner with leading hospitality brands like IHG hotels, Knoops, and Time Out Markets — and we’re just getting started.
