Run a Restaurant on One Platform, Not Seven Vendors.
Modern restaurant operations runs on Toast (POS, $79+/mo) + OpenTable (reservations, $249+/mo) + Resy (network) + Olo (online ordering) + DoorDash Drive (delivery) + Mailchimp (marketing) + Square (gift cards) + a custom loyalty app — 7+ vendors, 7+ bills, 7+ audit logs, zero shared customer record. Aeion ships Dining + POS + Reservations + Loyalty + Online Ordering + Delivery + Marketing on one tenant database. Same customer record. Same audit log. Same AI assistant. One bill.
The Native Restaurant Stack
Aeion Dining — Reservations + Tables + Floor Plan
Handles reservations, table turns, and the floor plan from one screen — the host manages walk-ins, the waitlist, and special-event blocks without juggling a second app, and every guest gets an automatic SMS confirmation and reminder. No OpenTable or Resy contract required. Read Dining →
POS via Aeion Bridge
Every piece of front-of-house hardware — receipt printers, card readers, cash drawers, kitchen printers, KDS displays — runs through the Aeion Bridge hardware layer, so the same checkout flow works whether the guest orders in-store or online. Tip handling, split-checks, and cash-drawer reconciliation are built in, not bolted on. Read Bridge →
Online Ordering + Delivery
A native online-ordering storefront runs on Commerce, with delivery dispatch handled through Fleet or your DoorDash / UberEats / Grubhub connectors — so curbside, in-store, and scheduled pickup all flow through the same order queue the kitchen is already watching. Read Commerce →
Loyalty + Gift Cards Native
Tier-based loyalty (points, tiers, rewards) and digital gift cards live natively, so the host actually knows a VIP guest's birthday is coming up instead of guessing. Referral programs run on the same customer record — no separate Smile.io, Punchh, or Paytronix subscription. Read Loyalty →
Multi-Channel Marketing
Email, SMS, and push campaigns segment guests by visit frequency, average check, dietary preferences, and how long it's been since their last visit — so a guest who hasn't been in for 30 days gets a real win-back offer instead of a generic newsletter blast. Read Marketing →
Kitchen Display + Inventory
The kitchen display routes tickets by station while inventory tracks ingredient usage against sales in real time, firing auto-reorder alerts before you run out mid-service. Recipe costing and waste tracking show the chef exactly what sells — and the AI turns that into menu-engineering suggestions, not just a spreadsheet.
Aeion Hospitality — Hotel + Restaurant Composition
For restaurants operating inside a hotel, guest folio integration and room-charge billing plug straight into the hotel's unified CRM record — so the front desk and the dining room are working off the same guest, not two. Read Hospitality →
AeionClaw — Restaurant AI Assistant
The restaurant AI skill drafts host responses to reservation inquiries, watches table turns in real time, predicts no-shows before they happen, and puts together a VIP-arrival brief and daily performance summary automatically — so the host walks into a shift already prepared. Read Claw →
What "Same Guest Record Across Channels" Means
Most restaurant operations fight a fundamental data-fragmentation problem.
What Restaurant Operators Stop Paying For
Toast POS
$79-200/mo + payment processing markup — ~$1,200/yr + processing fees
Resy
network fees + tools — ~$2,400/yr if used
DoorDash Drive
per-order fee, ~$5-7 — variable
Annual SaaS subtotal
~$27,000/yr per location
Aeion (Dining $49/mo + Commerce $79/mo + Marketing $49/mo + Loyalty from $29/mo) replaces ~90%
~$2,500/yr + provider API costs
