Let us Nudge, a restaurant technology platform, is expanding its seating optimization system across casual-chain, family-owned, and fine-dining establishments in multiple U.S. pilot cities. The platform uses real-time incentives—dubbed "Nudge In" during slow periods and "Nudge Out" during peak times—to shape customer behavior and improve table utilization. The system requires no hardware purchase or setup fees and operates across both indoor and outdoor seating.

Current Deployment The company reports 65 active B2B locations in full-service and quick-service segments.

Its B2C customer base has grown to approximately 400,000 users, who have received nearly 4.2 million incentive notifications combined across pilot markets. According to the company, the technology aims to increase customer satisfaction and loyalty while optimizing restaurant traffic during both high and low-volume periods.
