Somm.ai worked with Keith Goldston (MS) and the Landry's Team to create a QR wine list for the COVID era. Somm.ai already collaborated with Landry's to develop a retail concept for the Wine Spectator Grand Award winning wine list that did tremendously well. With the QR menu, customers are able to search 2,500+ selections on their own phone without sharing a wine list. The technology is fast, easy-to-use, and has intelligent auto-complete. Somm.ai is pushing technology into hundreds of other Landry’s restuarants.
Tourism has hurt the New Orleans community especially badly. Commander’s Palace is an important institution in New Orleans and they had to adapt. Somm.ai worked with Dan Davis, Wine Director of this Wine Spectator Grand Award wine cellar. As a wine collection takes years to accumulate, Dan did not want to sell all of their rarities at fire-sale prices. Commander's Palace used Somm.ai’s pricing technology to be able to ensure that all their wines were sold at good prices. Through the entire process, Somm.ai was there and met their every need, and helped introduce new features as was required. Their collaboration with Somm.ai has generated the incremental cash flow that has allowed them to hire back employees faster.
Somm.ai worked with Casper Rice, Wine Director of the Wine Spectator Grand Award winning Fabio Trabocchi group to sell an enviable amount of wine. Somm.ai addressed all business needs quickly and helps improve the customer interaction. Somm.ai’s internal inventory management system allows Fiola Mare to be confident that it would have wines that were purchased. Although Fiola Mare sells wine through other avenues, Somm.ai gives customers the ability to search and filter for what they want, resulting in higher order values. Somm.ai is working with Casper and the Fabio Trabocchi group to sell wines in its other locations.
Within a week of the announcement of a shut down in New York City, Somm.ai had Atera’s wine list ready to go. We worked with Matthew Abbick, manager of Atera, a two-michelin star restaurant. Somm.ai's technology allowed Atera to run a wine retail program with a skeleton crew. Atera's customers were very happy to support Atera through this difficult time by purchasing wine through the Somm.ai platform.
