India’s growing restaurant technology ecosystem has received a fresh boost as Bengaluru-based startup Digitory Solutions Pvt Ltd raised $500,000 (around ₹4.55 crore) in a Pre-Series A funding round. The round was led by angel investor Tejas Paresh Lodaya, marking an important milestone in the company’s growth journey.
Founded in 2016 by Shivaprakash S Mogali, Digitory has been quietly building advanced technology solutions tailored for restaurants, cafes, breweries, bars, and cloud kitchens across India. The latest funding round is expected to accelerate its product development, market expansion, and enterprise onboarding efforts.
Building Smart Tech Solutions for Restaurants
Digitory operates as a full-stack restaurant technology platform that integrates AI and machine learning-based automation with POS (Point of Sale) systems and inventory management tools. Its platform helps streamline daily operations that are often complex and manual in traditional hospitality setups.
The company offers features such as recipe management, kitchen display systems, QR-based ordering, workflow automation, cost control dashboards, and performance analytics. These tools are designed to help food businesses reduce wastage, improve kitchen coordination, monitor real-time data, and enhance overall profitability.
Unlike standalone POS solutions, Digitory provides an integrated ecosystem that connects front-of-house and back-of-house operations. This centralised yet scalable model allows multi-location restaurant chains to operate efficiently while maintaining data consistency across outlets.
Strategic Plans for the Fresh Capital
The newly raised $500K will be utilised across multiple strategic priorities. Digitory plans to strengthen its technology infrastructure, enhance research and development capabilities, and expand its sales and distribution network across India.
A significant portion of the capital will also go towards onboarding larger restaurant brands and strengthening enterprise relationships. With India’s food and beverage industry becoming increasingly organised and tech-driven, Digitory aims to position itself as a preferred operational technology partner for modern hospitality brands.
The company is also expected to double down on automation features, helping restaurants adopt smarter workflows that minimise manual errors and improve operational visibility.
Strong Client Portfolio and Market Reach
Digitory has already built a notable client base within India’s vibrant F&B industry. The startup serves several well-known breweries and restaurant chains including Toit, Bier Library, Biergarten, Pumphouse, BLR Brewing Co, 1522, Byg Brewski, Zero40, and Effingut Breweries.
Through its platform, the company claims to have supported operations serving over 1.8 million end customers. This traction highlights the growing acceptance of tech-enabled management solutions in India’s hospitality space.
With dining habits evolving and competition intensifying, restaurants are increasingly relying on data-driven insights to optimise performance, manage costs, and improve customer experience. Digitory’s integrated solution addresses this need by offering both operational control and actionable analytics in a single system.
Investor Confidence in India’s Restaurant Tech Boom
Angel investor Tejas Paresh Lodaya’s participation in the Pre-Series A round reflects continued investor interest in niche SaaS platforms focused on India’s large and growing hospitality sector. The funding comes at a time when restaurant owners are actively investing in digital tools to improve margins and scale operations efficiently.
Founder and CEO Shivaprakash S Mogali expressed confidence in the company’s growth roadmap, highlighting that while the product has already been battle-tested in live restaurant environments, the funding will now help accelerate distribution and enterprise expansion.
As India’s restaurant technology market continues to evolve, Digitory’s latest funding round signals growing momentum for specialised operational tech startups that solve real-world business challenges in the hospitality industry.
