The Problem

You didn't open a pub to
do admin all day

Every hour you spend on tasks that AI can handle is an hour stolen from your guests, your team, and your life.

Phone with social media notifications

Social media is a full-time job

You know you need to post. But writing captions, sourcing photos, scheduling — it never ends.

~8 hrs/week doing it yourself

Phone ringing unanswered

Missed calls = missed revenue

Phone rings during service. Nobody picks up. That booking goes to the restaurant down the road.

~15% of calls unanswered

Financial documents and calculator

No idea if you're making money

Gut feeling isn't a financial strategy. By the time you crunch the numbers, the damage is done.

~60% of owners don't know weekly P&L

Paper checklist on clipboard

Checklists on paper (or not at all)

Opening checks, closing checks, cleaning logs — critical compliance that lives on a clipboard nobody reads.

~Zero accountability trail

Invoices and supplier paperwork

Suppliers charge whatever they like

No time to compare prices. No leverage to negotiate. Your margins leak quietly, week after week.

~2-5% margin lost to lazy pricing

Handshake interview

Hiring is a nightmare

Indeed costs a fortune. CVs pile up. Interviews take days. You still pick wrong half the time.

~€3,000+ per bad hire

"I built 18 AI systems to run my own pub, brewery, and drinks company. Every system you get has been tested on real chaos — Saturday night service, supplier negotiations, staff no-shows. If it works for us, it works for you."

Why Iskra?

The story behind the name

Iskra is the Polish word for spark.

It was chosen by our co-founders — Barry (Irish) and Ola (Polish) — to honour both cultures. In Ireland and in Poland, the hearth fire is where people gather. Where warmth is shared. Where strangers become guests and guests become family.

The spark is what starts it all. Your ambition. Your venue. Your team. We just make sure the fire keeps burning while you step away.

iskra /ˈɪs.kra/Polish — noun. A spark; the moment of ignition.

FAQ

Questions?

What is Iskra?
Iskra is an AI automation platform for hospitality businesses. We give pub, restaurant, and hotel owners their time back by automating the operational work that drains their week — social media, phone calls, checklists, supplier management, hiring, and financial reporting.
How long does setup take?
Most venues are fully operational within 2 weeks. We handle all the technical setup. You just tell us about your business, your team, and your suppliers — we do the rest.
Do I need to be technical?
Not at all. Everything is designed for hospitality people, not engineers. You approve social posts in Telegram. You check dashboards on your phone. Your staff use tablets for checklists. Zero coding, zero complexity.
What POS systems do you integrate with?
We currently integrate with Toast, ResDiary, Breww, and Sage. If you use a different system, talk to us — we can usually connect it.
Is my data safe?
Your data stays in your instance. We don't share it across clients. All connections are encrypted. We follow GDPR best practices and store the minimum data needed for each module to function.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. No contracts, no lock-in. We think you'll stay because it works — not because you have to.
