01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
WorkAround, an Amsterdam-based venture-backed startup, built a hardware-based self-service reservation and payment device for hospitality venues: guests could reserve and pay at the venue without staff assistance, helping venues boost bookings, streamline guest flow, and reduce staffing pressure. The company raised a $428,000 pre-seed round in January 2023. It is now listed as shut down and no longer operating.
