The head-office side
Finance at Canada's largest restaurant brand, after years in hospitality operations and management. Believes management is only as effective as the systems and data behind it.
About RTR Systems
Built by the people who answer for the numbers.
Read The Room exists because the two of us needed it — one at a head-office finance desk, one on a restaurant floor. We built the system that serves both sides, then priced it per location so everyone can be on it.
Founders
One from the office. One from the floor.

The restaurant side
Owner of a four-location restaurant brand in Toronto. Chasing cashouts, tip pools, comps, and labour targets isn't the job — it's what eats into it, for servers and managers alike.
Why this exists
Head office buys software the floor ignores. The floor improvises in group chats and spreadsheets while head office flies blind. Both sides are working hard on different pictures of the same restaurant — Read The Room makes it one picture.
How we work
Three rules we don't break.
Floor first, then the office
Every workflow is designed for the person doing it during service — the head-office view is earned from tools people actually use.
Evidence, not email
Every metric ties back to a source you can audit: a cheque, a punch, a batch. If we can't trace it, we don't show it.
Everyone's on it
Per-location pricing, no per-user fees — accountability doesn't work if half the team is locked out.
