By hosts, for hosts
Behind ROSI are the brothers Tobias and Simon Zilker. They built ROSI to give restaurateurs their time back: fewer interruptions during service, more time to be a host again, fully and completely.


Founders
Tobias Zilker
Tobias gained his first hospitality experience at Augustiner an der Frauenkirche in Munich. He then completed a dual study programme at the head office of McDonald's Germany.
After his master's in data analytics, he advised restaurant chains on how to use their data to make better decisions. That knowledge is built into ROSI today.

Mark on LinkedInWhat the two share
This is where both worked their first shifts in hospitality.
Together they organise the non-profit Kulturfestival Gräfelfing.
Bar, kitchen, front of house, shift planning and process consulting for restaurants and restaurant chains.
"AI is no longer perceived as technology, but as part of the service experience. What matters is not who is speaking, but whether the request gets solved."
