Otter is a restaurant operating system that bundles order management, delivery, seating, inventory, and analytics into one platform. It works by providing an integrated suite of front- and back-end tools in a single system, so restaurants take orders, manage delivery, track inventory, seat guests, and review performance from one place, with scalable subscription pricing. It differentiates itself by consolidating multiple functions into one platform rather than using many separate tools, helping restaurants streamline workflows and control costs. Its goal is to boost profitability and guest satisfaction while keeping operations efficient and adaptable to changes in the food industry.

Canva, a global visual communication platform, announced Alberto Ceresa as its new country manager in Brazil.

The executive holds a bachelor's degree in finance from Università Bocconi in Italy, with specializations from the National University of Singapore and Fudan University in China. At Canva, Ceresa has the mission to accelerate the brand's growth in Brazilian territory, consolidating the country as one of the company's priority markets in the international scenario. With a focus on innovation and scaling operations, the new CM arrives to lead the local expansion strategy and enhance the platform's presence among Brazilian users, companies, and institutions. "We want to be the tool that helps Brazilian businesses look as good as their ideas, whether you're launching your first brand or scaling something big. There is so much potential here, and I am genuinely excited to be part of this journey," says Ceresa. Under his leadership, the company intends to deepen the localization of its products and user experience flows. Launched in 2013, Canva is a free online visual collaboration and communication platform. With a drag-and-drop interface, anyone can create presentations, documents, websites, social media posts, posters, and video resources. Brazil is its second-largest market in the world, behind only the United States. It is estimated that about one in nine Brazilians with internet access has a Canva account.
