🍽️ RestroCore: AI-Powered POS & Restaurant Management System with Real-Time KDS and Online Booking
Status: 🟡 Beta Pricing: Self-hosted ✅ Free (open-source) | Cloud ✅ Free until beta
The Problem:
Toast charges $165+/month + 2.6% per transaction. Square starts at $60/month + processing. Zomato takes a cut. And they still don't do the basics well — slow POS during rush, kitchen display is an afterthought, online booking is a separate paid add-on, and your website is static.
