Disrupting Restaurant Tech: Sterling Douglass on Profitable Growth and Smarter Systems

Restaurant tech is a double-edged sword—it can streamline operations and drive profits, or it can be just another expense that complicates everything. Sterling Douglass, co-founder and CEO of Chowly, has spent years solving that problem. He’s built a platform that not only automates online ordering but also optimizes pricing, increases average check sizes, and turns data into dollars. In this episode, we unpack why most restaurant tech fails, how operators can make digital channels work for them, and the key strategies to boost sales without adding complexity. If you’re ready to get more from your tech stack and grow profitably, this conversation is a must.
