Director of Support
About Tock
Tock is changing the way restaurants, wineries, and culinary event organizers run their business. This includes a robust reservation, guest, and table management system for businesses of all sizes across the globe.
Nick Kokonas and Chef Grant Achatz opened Alinea to international fanfare in 2005 - now a perennial Michelin three star and widely considered one of the best restaurants in the world. For years they were spending $140,000 a year on staff dedicated to managing reservations and losing an average of $260,000 a year on cancellations. Knowing there had to be a solution, Nick started work on a new reservation system. The homemade platform was a success. Soon after, Nick founded Tock with Brian Fitzpatrick, founder of Google's Chicago engineering office, to turn this simple idea into a robust platform to change the way people dine around the world.
Tock’s explosive growth (as of March 2019):
Announced an exclusive partnership and integration with Chase Pay
Announced an exclusive partnership and integration with WineDirect
Won Chicago Tribune's "Game Changer" Award for industry innovation
Reached a global customer base of over 23 countries operating in 100+ cities
Has now processed over $450 million in prepaid reservations
