Reality check: A restaurant doing $30k/month in online orders through DoorDash Storefront at 6% is paying $1,800/month in commissions — $21,600/year — to a platform they don't own.
.about
The best restaurant tech is the kind guests never notice.
Course is a software and design studio run by Young Ha, based in Clive, Iowa. We build direct online ordering systems for local restaurants — clean, fast, and fully branded to your restaurant.
Every restaurant gets a fork of our Next.js platform, deployed on Vercel under your own domain. Payments go straight to your Stripe account. Orders land on a real-time kitchen display running on a tablet in your kitchen. No third party in the middle.
