There is a version of AI social media that cafes and restaurants buy off a shelf and quietly stop using inside a month. Then there's the version that's wired into your real workflow, owned by a person on your team, and still in use a year later. We only build the second one.
The version of AI social media that cafes and restaurants still use a year after launch.
Our goal is to give cafes and restaurants a three-day weekend, so people can spend more time with their families and the people they love :)

What you actually get
Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. This is what is in the box.
- A working pilot, in productionNot a prototype on someone's laptop. The first slice of AI social media runs against real work within weeks.
- Your data stays yoursIt runs on your accounts and your tools. If we part ways you keep the system and everything in it.
- The workflow mapped before codeWe write down what good looks like for cafes and restaurants first, so nobody is guessing at handover.
- Support after it landsThe people who built it stay reachable when the business changes shape around it.
How AI social media compares
The two things most businesses do instead, and where each one runs out.
| Hiring for it | An off-the-shelf tool | Kiwi Dynamics | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fit to how you work | Fits perfectly, costs a salary | You bend your process to suit the tool | Built around the workflow you already run |
| Time to something useful | Immediate, and permanent | Quick to switch on, slow to make fit | A working slice in weeks, then hardened |
| Who owns the data | You do | The vendor, on the vendor's terms | You do, in your own accounts |
| When it breaks | That person sorts it, if they are in | A support queue and a ticket number | The people who built it |
| What it costs | A salary, every year, forever | Per seat, forever, used or not | Scoped and quoted up front |
What years of building for cafes and restaurants taught us.
- Hospitality runs on thin margins where a missed booking, a bad review left unanswered, or a slow roster costs real money.
- Reservations, reviews, and rostering are the recurring admin that pulls owners off the floor.
How we build AI social media for cafes and restaurants.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for a cafe or restaurant business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI social manager.
Talk to usHow the work runs
- Find the one workflowWe look for the job costing cafes and restaurants the most hours or the most leads, and deliberately ignore the rest for now.
- Ship a working sliceA narrow version goes into production in weeks, against real work, so the value shows up before the build is finished.
- Prove it, then widenWe measure it against what the work cost before. If it does not pay for itself, we say so rather than scaling it.
- Harden and hand overLogging, fallbacks and a real handover, so it keeps running when we are not in the room.
The outcome for cafes and restaurants

FAQ
What's a typical engagement length for cafes and restaurants?
Six to twelve weeks for the build, then a short managed-services month while the system goes from "shipped" to "owned by your team". After that you keep us on retainer if you want, or take it from there yourself.
Are there hidden costs we should plan for?
Three to know about: model/API spend (which we set up under your own account, not ours, so you see and control it), any new SaaS subscriptions we recommend, and your team's time during rollout. We surface all three in the quote so there are no surprises.
Anyone else in this space using AI social media?
Plenty. Posting cadence up 5x, hours spent per week down to one. The interesting question is rarely "does it work" - it's "is your team ready to use the output." That's what we'd scope on the call.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default AI social media stack we reach for is Claude, Buffer, Meta Graph API, Vercel, but we'll bend it around whatever you already run - Xero, HubSpot, Shopify, Cin7, your own in-house apps. The discovery week maps every data source before any build starts.
Worth a conversation?
Even if you don't end up working with us, you'll leave the call knowing what's worth building.
