The founder

A one-person company, and whoever writes to it talks to him.

Itay founded Qder in 2026 and runs it on his own: he decides what gets built, talks to the restaurants and answers every message himself.

Much of the engineering is done with AI tools, under his direction.

01Company

What we build, and why

Software for restaurants, for their busiest hours: from the table to the pass.

What we build

Qder Waiter: a digital waiter the diner talks to from their phone, in their own language, with no app to install. Behind it are screens for the kitchen, the bar and the shift lead, and a panel that opens on any phone.

Why

On a busy night a diner waits for a waiter just to ask one question, while the waiter runs between tables. We build so that every table gets an answer the moment it asks, and the staff are free to host.

A waiter who is never busy

The diner scans the code on the table and talks, in their own language. The waiter takes the order, checks allergens and splits the bill.

A screen for every station

Orders reach the kitchen and bar screens with the allergy in red, and the shift lead sees the whole floor.

What the kitchen screen does →

The whole floor, from any phone

The shift lead sees every table, every call and every open bill mid-service, with no app to install. The chain sees every branch and edits one menu for all of them.

02How we build

One founder, and the rules every change follows

It is built and run by one founder, with AI tools doing much of the engineering. That is how we can build fast, and test everything before it reaches a table.

  • Allergens are checked in codeEvery answer the waiter gives, typed or spoken, is checked against the allergens the diner named before it reaches them.
  • The money stays with the restaurantThe diner pays the restaurant's own payment provider directly. We never hold the money and never store card details.
  • No appThe diner scans and orders in the browser. The shift's panel opens on any phone too.
  • In the diner's languageHebrew, English, Arabic, Russian and more. The diner writes or speaks in their own language, and the staff read it in Hebrew.
  • Private by defaultThe chat log is kept without an account id for 90 days, conversations you saved to your account a year after the last message, and you can ask for them not to be kept.
  • Tested before it reaches a tableEvery change to the waiter passes thousands of automated tests before it reaches restaurants, and big changes also go through hundreds of test conversations measured for accuracy and safety.
