About
ResQ provides a platform for restaurant chains to track equipment repairs, dispatch vendors, and manage maintenance budgets. Its customers include major franchises like Five Guys and Fogo de Chão that need to coordinate repairs across locations.
The 180-person company serves a niche between point-of-sale systems and general facilities software. While its 2021 funding round suggests early-stage growth, the lack of recent headcount data makes current trajectory unclear.
