TabRabbit

About

TabRabbit (tabrabbit.com) positions itself as an affordable, all-in-one restaurant technology suite that unifies software and hardware. The Android-native POS runs on modern tablets, emphasizes intuitive UX, and stays fully cloud-based—reducing reliance on on-prem servers. The product highlights EMV-capable payments, strong support, and a partner ecosystem aimed at both vendors and diners, with marketing that stresses fast onboarding and demo-driven evaluation.

Highlights

• Real-Time Order Synchronization: Managing active orders across in-house dining, takeout, and delivery required sub-second updates. This was solved with Redis pub/sub and Firebase real-time sync.
• Omnichannel E-Commerce Integration: Balancing in-person dining with online sales of food and merchandise required unification. By integrating Shopify APIs, TabRabbit provides a single source of truth for inventory, catalog, and storefront management.
• Scalability During Peak Hours: Lunch and dinner rushes created performance bottlenecks. Kubernetes auto-scaling and CDN caching ensured smooth service during traffic spikes.
• Payment Security & Compliance: Handling sensitive transactions demanded strict compliance. With Stripe’s PCI-DSS compliance and fraud protection, payment flows remained secure and reliable.
• User Adoption Across Staff Roles: Restaurant staff required simple, intuitive workflows. TabRabbit introduced role-specific dashboards and guided onboarding to minimize training time and maximize adoption.
