Founders Circle — Limited to 15 Members

Independent restaurants deserve the same intelligence chains have.
Help us build it.

ADAM is being built by someone who spent 39 years operating restaurants at every level. The Founders Circle is a small group of serious operators who will shape what it becomes — and lock in founding pricing forever.

Why ADAM Exists

Chains have systems.
Independent operators have instinct.

The restaurant across the street with 200 locations has a dedicated COO, an operations intelligence platform, compliance systems, and an advisory team. You have experience, hustle, and a gut feeling.

ADAM exists to close that gap — not with enterprise software at enterprise prices, but with a platform built by someone who has been on your side of the pass-through window for nearly four decades.

What chains have

Real-time operational audits. AI-assisted advisory. Compliance tracking. Multi-location dashboards. A COO who reads the data every Monday and tells the team what to fix first.

What independents have

Experience. Instinct. A spreadsheet. And the same operational complexity as a chain — with none of the infrastructure to manage it.

The Platform

An advisor.
Not another app.

ADAM — Advanced Dining Analysis & Management is a multi-mode restaurant intelligence platform. Audit your operation the way a seasoned COO would. Get findings connected directly to what they're costing you. Receive AI-powered advisory that tells you not just what's wrong, but what to fix first.

Built for the operator running one restaurant or five. Not for chains. Not for investors. For you.

Built By

39 years in the room.

Victor "Manny" Martinez Lopez spent 39 years in hospitality — on the floor, in the kitchen, and in the back office managing a $20M+ P&L across 14 restaurants. He knows what it looks like when a dining room is actually working. And he knows what it costs when the small things — the invisible gaps between what your team says is happening and what's actually happening — go unchecked.

ADAM is the tool he wished existed every year he spent in those rooms.

"In hospitality, the best operators I ever worked alongside all had something in common — they had a trusted advisor in their corner. Someone who knew the numbers, walked the floor, read the room, and told them the truth. Most independent restaurant owners have never had that person. ADAM is that advisor — built from 39 years of being in those rooms myself. Advanced Dining Analysis & Management. But honestly? It's named for what it does for you — it's the advisor you never had access to before."

— Victor "Manny" Martinez Lopez, Founder & Chairman, Martinez Hospitality Group LLC
