Loop will spend this year investing in its expanding suite of products to serve restaurantsā complex back office needs.
Rexhi Dollaku, General Partner at Base10 Partners said, āWe are always looking to back founders that have lived the problems theyāre solving with software, Loopās co-founders felt all the pain points presented by back office reconciliation and digital food delivery when they ran a restaurant together. We are honored they have chosen to partner with us and are looking forward to helping them through this next stage of their journey.”
Loopās AI-powered platform already serves the nationās fastest-growing brands like Daveās Hot Chicken, Freddyās Frozen Custards, MoāBettahs (Savory Fund Portfolio) and Mooyah (Gala Group) across thousands of locations, reconciling over $100M of restaurant transactions.
Loopās solutions mean restaurants of all sizes can spend less on costly accounting thanks to the companyās ability to combine automation, and best-in-class AI technology.
James McGeehee, CFO of Daveās Hot Chicken said, āLoop is the best-in-class solution and a must-have solution for brands like Daveās Hot Chicken where 25% of our revenue is powered by 3rd party delivery,ā.
Third-party delivery is already responsible for more than 25% of revenue for countless restaurant brands, and is set to be a $1T global industry in this decade. Restaurants pay 20-35% in commissions to delivery platforms unlike other revenue channels, challenging their financial models and accounting systems.

Additionally, 3-4% of orders that leave the door have accuracy issues that affect guest experience and the restaurantās brand, decaying revenue. Loop applies proven technology to help restaurants stay in lock-step with all elements of finances & operations related to third-party delivery. Now, that whole new business vertical, which can often be a pain point for operators, can be a sustainable revenue stream.
Anand Tumuluru, co-founder and CEO of Loop said, āThird-Party Delivery is here to stay, and weāre on a mission to make it as profitable as possible for restaurant operators of all sizes, through simple, easy-to-implement operational & financial best practices, Consumer behavior has shifted rapidly and decisively towards third-party delivery, but the restaurant back office continues to be underserved in handling revenue and operational complexity from off-premise orders. Loop positions the restaurant to succeed by providing a real time view of their cash flow both in aggregate and at an order level and the operational levers they can exercise to do even better – a capability that restaurants donāt have even for their in-store orders today. ā
