The Company

Open is on a mission to help every independent restaurant get the benefits of scale. We believe that local restaurants should be able to stay small while getting access to the tools, power, and resources of being big.

The Challenge

Open's primary goal was to automate the process of scraping food distributor websites into Google Sheets, significantly reducing the time spent on manual copy-pasting. Additionally, they faced challenges in pulling invoice numbers and dates into the Sheets accurately.

Lindsay Barlow discovered Open's automation capabilities as the key to overcoming their operational hurdles. By leveraging Open's advanced data scraping tools, Open was able to automate the extraction of data from food distributor websites, ensuring seamless integration into Google Sheets.
