Making software for
overlooked industries.

Neighborhood businesses deserve better than decades old software. We decided to fix that, starting with REVOLT, an integrated POS for independent grocers.

What it runs

Everything a store runs on, in one place.

The thesis

The businesses that run the real world are stuck on software from another era.

Independent grocers, gas stations, and corner stores keep neighborhoods alive. We build the tools they actually deserve.

How we think

We give small business an unfair advantage.

01

Operator-first

Built with the people behind the counter, not from a spec sheet.

02

All-in-one, not a stack

Register, inventory, and payments in one system, not ten tools duct-taped together.

03

Automate the busywork

Smart purchase orders, pricing, and outreach run themselves, so you focus on customers.

What we build
REVOLT
Our flagship · where we started, not where we stop
01

ESL shelf labels

Change a price once. Every electronic shelf label across the store updates in seconds — no printing tags, no pricing-gun marathons.

02

Loyalty & messaging

Know your regulars. Built-in loyalty and messaging bring customers back automatically, with offers that actually land.

03

AI invoice capture

Snap a photo of any supplier invoice. REVOLT reads it, matches it to your catalog, and files the purchase order for you.

Why now
Big business out-spent and out-teched independent retail for decades.
AI just leveled the field.
The advantages that belonged to the giants are finally within reach for everyone.
The network

A backbone for independent retail.

Every store that runs on our software makes the next one smarter. Shared demand signals, better buying power, collective leverage. A network the giants can’t ignore.
