Meet Patty AI: The Smart System Built for Restaurants


Listen Later

Pathway is redefining how restaurants operate through smart technology built by people who understand both data and hospitality. Founded by Luis Martinez-Moure and Adarsh Nagesh, Pathway created Patty, an intelligent restaurant system that connects sales, recipes, and invoices to automate procurement and uncover insights no human could track. Luis and Adarsh take a hands-on approach, visiting kitchens and walking coolers to understand each operator’s challenges. Their goal is simple: help restaurants save time, protect margins, and focus on what truly matters, hospitality. Pathway is not replacing people with technology; it is giving hospitality back to the humans who make it happen.



Interview Takeaways:
  • AI That Thinks Like an Operator – Pathway’s Patty AI acts as an intelligent restaurant manager, connecting sales, recipes, and invoices to recommend what to order each day. By eliminating spreadsheets and guesswork, it helps operators make faster, smarter, and more confident decisions.
  • Building Tech the Restaurant Way – Co-Founders Luis Martinez-Moure and Adarsh Nagesh do not build from behind screens. They visit kitchens, walk coolers, and talk with staff to understand real challenges. Their hands-on process ensures that every feature serves the people who run restaurants, not just the data behind them.
  • Hospitality at the Core of AI – Pathway’s goal is not to replace human effort but to elevate it. By automating the tedious parts of restaurant management, Patty AI gives owners and managers more time to focus on service, culture, and creativity, the heart of hospitality.
