The Opportunity

Problem

Freelancers building restaurant booking apps can't scale their businesses because hospitality owners resist new tech and cling to legacy systems.

Freelancers deploy connectors in minutes, proving value through live demos that migrate reservations effortlessly. This reduces owner resistance by keeping familiar UIs while unlocking modern scalability.
