Amsterdam-based SOUS raised €4M in seed funding led by Seed + Speed Ventures to build an AI growth platform for independent restaurants, automating digital visibility and customer engagement across search engines and AI platforms like ChatGPT. With the restaurant technology market projected at $6.9B in 2026, SOUS's expansion into Germany signals how AI is leveling the playing field for small F&B businesses against large chains.
