How a Rejected Diner Menu Built a 40M Restaurant Tech Company

In this episode, Lucas and Luna dig into the story of a first-time founder whose initial pitch for a digital diner menu was rejected by every investor she approached. Instead of giving up, she pivoted to a broader restaurant management platform, bootstrapped it with consulting revenue, and eventually built a company generating $40 million in annual recurring revenue.

Plus, a candid moment about how listener support keeps this podcast ad-free.
