Our Values are our vertebrae.

As a guest-facing hospitality company, we're committed to creating solutions that support independent restaurants and the diverse communities they serve. Our members are guests & customers, not "users".

We believe that people & their personal data are not products to be sold or exploited. that technology should be used to enhance human connection - not replace it and that deep personalization is the hallmark of genuine hospitality.

How It All Started

Having worked in restaurants for over three decades, I'm often asked to recommend "another great bar" or asked "What’s your favorite restaurant in a particular city?" or "Where would be a good place to take my husband for our anniversary", etc...

I've always said that asking me to recommend a great meal or "The Best restaurant", is a lot like telling me you’re going out for ice cream and asking me what the best flavor is.

In other words, I've always believed that "The Best" restaurant is totally subjective.

So, in the interest of wanting everyone to enjoy themselves as much as possible, I've always tried to learn as much as I can about their personal likes and dislikes before ever making a recommendation.

I ask questions like:

“Where have you eaten before that you really liked and what did you like most about it?”

“Where have you been that you'd never go back... and what made it so disappointing?”

“What are some of your other favorite places... and why?”

“Do you have any food allergies, dietary restrictions or have any foods that you simply don’t like or wouldn’t even consider trying?”

“What do you consider 'good service'?"

etc...

The list goes on and on... and, while it may sound tedious, the more information I gather about someone - the more reliable (and appreciated) my recommendations tend to be.

So, while my own personal recommendations may have served as a sort of an "organic proof of concept" - the method wasn't scalable.

So we built an app that does it all automatically. My partners and I created predictive analytics software to automate the "getting to know someone part" since that's the part that's so vital to making reliable recommendations. 

Our AI then uses that information to calculate each person’s individual compatibility with restaurants & bars anywhere.

In short, we've built the first personal AI recommendations engine for people who are really serious about food and love to travel.

Paire also offers the world's most advanced restaurant & barlist maker to help you organize & share the names and locations of places you don't want to forget.

It's ironic - we found that the best way to remove bias from existing one-size-fits-all restaurant recommendation platforms, was to create a platform that actually serves as a celebration of each person's bias.  By listening to and acting on each person's opinions, instead of just broadcasting them, we're able to put your opinions to a much more practical use.
