- Parrot Software was launched in 2018 by David Villarreal and Roberto Cebrian in Monterrey, Mexico, with a vision to revolutionize restaurant operations.
- Parrot integrates with major delivery services and offers a comprehensive POS solution, leading to significant boosts in sales, order accuracy, and delivery efficiency.
- Recognized as the best integration in Mexico by UberEats and Rappi, Parrot has driven a 28% increase in sales for its users and continues to grow with strategic partnerships and funding.
It began with a simple observation—restaurants across Mexico were grappling with inefficiencies, juggling outdated systems, and losing out on potential growth.
In 2018, David Villarreal and Roberto Cebrian, both seasoned in navigating the tech landscape, saw the opportunity to change this narrative.
What if there was a way to not just manage, but transform how restaurants operated?
Driven by this question, they created Parrot Software, a comprehensive point-of-sale (POS) solution that would soon become synonymous with innovation in the restaurant industry.
Today, Parrot is not just a tool but a catalyst, empowering eateries to elevate their operations and redefine success.
Building the Future: The Birth of Parrot Software
From the heart of Monterrey, Parrot Software emerged with a singular goal: to empower restaurants with technology that not only simplifies operations but also drives growth.
David and Roberto, with their deep understanding of the industry’s pain points, designed Parrot to be more than just a POS system.
They envisioned a platform that could automate every aspect of restaurant management, from the moment a customer walks into the final payment reconciliation at the end of the day.
The Engine Behind the Success: How Parrot Works
At its core, Parrot is a dynamic, user-friendly solution that gives restaurant owners complete control over their operations.
The Administrator Portal is the command center, where everything can be customized to fit the unique needs of each restaurant.
Whether it’s managing table service, handling cashier duties, or applying gift certificates, Parrot makes it all seamless. And with ParrotPay, even payment reconciliation becomes a breeze.
But the real magic happens with Parrot’s integration capabilities. Recognizing the growing importance of delivery services, Parrot seamlessly connects with Rappi, UberEats, and Didi Food, allowing restaurants to manage all their delivery orders from one place.
This integration isn’t just for convenience—it’s a game-changer, earning Parrot the title of best integration in Mexico by UberEats and Rappi in 2022, with an astonishing 99.9% order acceptance rate.
Turning the Tables: Parrot’s Impact on Restaurant Sales
The results speak for themselves. Restaurants using Parrot have reported a 28% surge in sales, a 27% increase in branch orders, and the opening of new sales channels that contribute to an additional 26% in revenue.
Perhaps most impressive is the 50% growth in delivery service orders, a direct result of Parrot’s superior integration with delivery apps.
This isn’t just software—it’s a catalyst for business growth.
Fueling the Journey: Partnerships and Funding
Parrot’s journey from startup to industry leader has been powered by strategic partnerships and solid investor backing.
After joining Y Combinator’s elite startup accelerator, Parrot secured $2.1 million in seed funding, a testament to the confidence investors have in its potential.
These partnerships and investments have enabled Parrot to continue refining its platform, ensuring that it remains at the cutting edge of restaurant technology.
